Am new here. Just purchased a new puter with VISTA. Looking for assistance in burning DVDs. Used to use Nero vision express. The newer versions don't work the same way. Keep sending me to Nero burning rom. This doesn't appear to be able to convert the avi's to DVD formats. Any thoughts or reccomendations would be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

AVI to DVD

Hi gator, I know you are looking at free stuff but for a small price VSO have a great program that I use all the time and have never had a prob converting http://www.vso-software.fr/shop.php

I also use ConvertXtoDVD, it converts, burns and works great with vista.

ConvertXtoDVD (formerly VSO) is outstanding. Gets my vote.
