Hi all im curently using nero to burn divX or Xvid to dvd. It does all the transcoding and burning in one but just recently it has'nt been 100% ie starting to burn disc but not completing or saying its burning and rendering the disc unusble although theres nothing burnt onto it. Can anyone suggest replacement soft as im getting a bit sick of binning unusable discs??
Thanks
Thanks

Thanks

i use winavi. it converts anything to anything. if you just want to burn one film to a disc, it will encode it straight to dvd ready for burning.
if however you mean burning xvids to dvd as xvids for use on a suitable player then why not try uninstalling nero and reinstalling it.0 -
Hi,
I had exactly the same problem with nero 7 a few months back. What I decided to do to get around the problem and also to avoid the long processing times in converting xvid to dvd compliant file, was to purchase a dvd player that plays xvid files. I picked one up for £35 from https://www.maplin.co.uk . All I do now is simply burn the xvid as an xvid file directly on to a CDR (most xvid files are about 700MB in size). I then play the movie on my xvid enabled dvd player.
This process saves me (a) time and (b) money as CDRs are less than DVDRs

Unfrotunately i had already bought a panasonic home cinema sytem with hard drive which does'nt play divx, as otherwise i would have done that but hey ho thanks for the suggestions.
