You'll need a DVD authoring program to convert .avi files into a DVD compatable format. Nero has one included in its suite of programs and I'm sure there are more out there (probably free or with a trial period), have a look on google.

Not sure what you mean by multisession? Multisession usually means that you can add things to the disk at a later date so that you don't need to write all the data to the disk at once (e.g. weekly tv shows). You should be able to do this with Nero or something equivalent as it's a standard feature of most CD/DVD buring programs. However, it may not work on you standalone DVD player, so check before burning a lot of DVDs.

To make a multisession DVD playable on a standalone player, you'll need to re-burn it as a single session. Copy all the data onto your hard drive, then burn another DVD with all the data (and any more data you might want)
A multi session DVD will work, as long as there is only 1 session on it.

All this also applies to CDs
