Ok Cris. Here is a what I have found so far. First of all I got Nero Vision Express with the purchase of my Lite-On DVD burner. It WILL supposedly reencode a .avi file into DVD format. I am currently trying this with a Divx file that is listed as a .avi file Divx files are a video file that is far smaller than DVD format. You can put a full Divx movie onto a CDR disc. The DVD player I sent you the link for WILL play Divx movies. I am not sure at this time if .avi and Divx are one and the same however. You could go to www.divx.com and check out what they say about .avi files compared to Divx if you want. I will let you know in about 5 hrs if the reencoding works on this particular movie.

I'd love for you to do some digging! I don't see anything with 'vision' in it in my nero. hmmmm Cris --- avast! Antivirus: Outbound message clean.
