The guide below shows a way to convert your DivX, XviD files to DVD(play on TV). I admit that these programs are not the best way to do the job, just I believe it's the easiest one. So if you find the TMPGEnc Plus / DVD Authoring program way too complicated, this guide will let you convert your DivX and XviD files with just a few clicks.

What is Divx or XviD Converter? Know more about it Here, you can regard them as .avi file for converting.

The program we are going to use Mpeg/Mov/RMVB/DivX/AVI to DVD/VCD/SVCD Converter Pro 7.07
It enables you to convert and burn any video file directly to VCD, DVD, SVCD, MPEG1 and MPEG2 format.
Support Divx, XviD format avi files, Support VOB, ASF, WMV format as input file, too.

(Converter + Embedded Burner) . Note that you will not get menu and all kind of fancy stuff, but the job will be done fast and easy. Click on the program names above to get them and then follow the guide!

This is the top area of the program where we need to make the first settings. First of all you select the conversion you want to do (1). We want to convert our XviD to DVD, so select To DVD. Now you have to select between two tabs (2). Merge/Batch will join all the video you add (as you can add more than one) to one MPG file. Batch will encode each AVI to a different MPG file (so that you burn it in more DVDs). As you understand if the videos are small select Merge, if it's big movies you want to put into different DVDs select Barch. After this click Add (3) and open the video files you want to convert.

Now it's time for the output settings. First of all select the location and the name of the output file (2). Then select Keep Aspect Ratio (4) unless you want your actors to look like aliens! :-) After that select the output format (4) between PAL and NTSC depending on your DVD player. The PAL and NTSC selections will set the right output size (resolution) (4). Also if you want your PC to shut down after the conversion (usefull as the conversion may take much time) select this option (5).

This is how the main window should look like (depending on your settings of course) before you encode. If everything is OK click the big Convert button(6). After you click "Convert" button, the following dialog will pop up automatically

After video conversion done, the "CD/DVD Burning engine" will be launched automatically. Please choose the DVD burner

Please place a DVD-/+R/RW disc into your DVD burner. If it is a rewritable disc, the program will erase the disc before burning DVD disc. When burning DVD is done, the DVD disc will be eject automatically. You can also find the output file at the output folder. Here you go! In just 5 steps you converted your file to DVD!
