How to convert AVI files to ifo, vob, bup? I want to put avi movie onto dvd-rw disc...?

I want to burn a movie on my desktop that is avi onto a dvd-rw disc. i have Nero OEM Suite and when i try to burn the movie onto a dvd-rw it says like incompatible file type or something. it has to be an ifo, vob or bup. any easy to use software that can convert avi to a format i can burn onto a dvd? i have Nero OEM suite so I think i can use that. im really a novice at this so step-by-step instructions would really help. the best explanation gets the points here. id appreciate any help, and the simpler the instructions, the better. thanx

    Go to http://www.softpedia.com/ or http://www.download.com/ and look for a FREEWARE that will let you convert your AVI movie file into a DVD format file such as VOB.

    Then you can just use your NERO to burn it into your DVD-RW

    An AVI file is only compatible with CD-RW so you can burn it into a CD-RW, but you will need special equipment that will play those types of CDs.

    I burn avi files on to DVD+Rs and RWs all the time so I dont know why it wouldnt work for you... but anyways, go to a torrent site like torrentreactor.net and search for "convert avi" should be lots of free programs

    okie..brother..tell me wat u want to do..

    i guess u want to burn a vi to dvd-rw!

    ok ur operating system is XP u dont have to use nero!

    1)right click on ur file(tats on the desktop) n from the menu click copy!

    2)insert the dvd/rw in to the ROM

    3)take my computer and double Click on the DVDrom

    4)u get a "blank window (if ur dvd/rw is emty/new)" right click on the window and "paste "

    5)on the left side of the window u will see a link name"write these files on to the disc" click it.

    tats it xp will burn the files to the dvd!

    the avi file can now be viewed from ur system or dvd player!

    i think the file is in divx format.

    divx is a new format which can compress the size of DVD movies! it retains good video n audio quality!

    u will get lots of divx converters on the net..using which u can convert the avi files to a reduced size and quality u want!

    just got to divx.com for more information

    and for converters go to google.com and search for "divx converters"

    if u still cant do it..just email me!

    all the latest dvd players play avi files so u dont have to convert it!

    go to http://www.alloksoft.com/ to download a file extension coverter.

    When you download it from this site, the converter shouldn't be free, but don't worry, you can enter the serial.

    To look for a serial # for the converter, you need to go to http://www.freeserials.com/ or http://www.serials.ws/ or http://www.crackspider.net/
