Why dont my .avi videos work correctly when to put to DVD?

I have made a few videos in Adobe Premiere that feature edited video, special effects, and soundtracks. I converted them from a Premiere project into a .avi file, and uploaded them to YouTube, and they work perfectly. I then burned them to DVD and I can't get them to play correctly in a DVD player.

I used Nero 8, and I made it a DVDISO because I couldn't do a DVD-Video, it said I needed another program to do that. How can I burn these so they work fine on a regular DVD Player?

    Standard DVD players read the .Vob format, the files you have now are in AVI format..

    It will automatically convert to DVD format, readable by all standard dvd players, it will then burn automatically to DVD...

    it is easy to use, fast and it works perfect for me.. give it a try, you'll love it

    1. Download ConvertXtoDVD here:

    It can convert any video file.. like wmv, mpeg, asf, mp4, avi to dvd

    2. Add or drag-n-drop as many video files as the DVD can handle

    3. Insert blank DVD

    5. Enjoy watching those video files on your home DVD player! =)

    To make a DVD compatible with regular DVD players, you will have to use video DVD creator which will not only convert the AVI videos to VOB format, but also arrange the VOB files in specific folders to be recognized by the DVD player. In my opinion, with Leawo DVD Creator, you needn't get messed up with any other video converters and DVD burners. Just put all your AVI videos into Leawo DVD Creator, and it will know the way to produce a video DVD to your satisfaction. Here is the URL to this handy soft,

    One way to burn avi files that will play on a dvd player.But it must be able to handle divx.

    Most players sold today like phillips and samsung players handle avi files.You just burn the file as data

    on a regular cdr.

    Most DVD players only play vob files. Use DVDFlick to convert the avi files and burn the DVD. http://sourceforge.net/projects/dvdflick/
