Hello, I know this is probably an easy question, but I do not have a clue. How can I get an AVI file to burn and play on a DVD? Thanks in advance...

Start an iDVD project
drag the AVI to the project
fool around with it

However, you may need to download and install the DivX 6 QuickTime codec before this works.

AVI files are typically containers for DivX files.

Toast 7 has 1-step DivX to DVD conversion.

Click to expand...

Just download whatever codecs you need to make it play in QuickTime Player than use Toast 7 Titanium to burn it to DVD.

Codecs you might consider:

DivX 6
XviD
3ivX
OggVorbis
AC3

That should be enough to get any avi working.

Get divx from http://www.divx.com/divx/mac/download/?hp3macdl

you have to get all their other crap in the download but the player itself is completely free!
