    If you are just burning the raw .avi file to a disc, the xbox will not be able to play it as it doesnt understand .avi files.

    Instead you will have to convert these to the native dvd format called VOB

    have a look at the tutorial in source

    they should work on the 360 if you have Xbox live. the reason is you need some Codec download from live to play them, but it is not a one time download. it kind of tricks your xbox into thinking you don't have the code if you don't have live.

    if the dvds don't work you can move movies onto a (usb powered) flash drive. i do this all the time, but again, you need Xbox Live.
