Hi all

I'm quite new to the Mac and used Toast to convert an .avi file into DVD format and burn.

But the DVD looks quite poor quality now and not like the source avi file.

Whats the best way to convert an .avi file to DVD please?

Thanks
 
I noticed this myself, the quality of the conversions doesn't seem as good as Nero on a PC. Maybe I'm doing something wrong?
 
As an encoder, Toast generally is very poor in my experience. I would try VisualHub for your needs... I've always gotten very good quality encodes from .avi to DVD with that program, and it's extremely versatile so you won't regret purchasing it.
