Creating DVDs is no longer reconizes avi files

Windows DVD is no longer reconizes the avi files I have loaded and burned in the past. Under Vista Home Premium for several years with all updates. any suggestions?

original title: DVD maker preused file recognition

I found a program that recognizies videos formats and convert to any device. simple to use

and it will play in any DVD player. I'm done trying Win DVD Maker. I liked it, but I'm not wasting any more time trying. We thank all the suggestions.

    What is the video in question file extension?

    To create a video DVD that should play in most DVD
    Players... you need to use a DVD authoring program
    as a manufacturer of DVD. Apparenty your first DVD was data
    DVD and the reason Blu - Ray player has agreed
    Maybe because your file source was AVCHD.
    Some Blu - Ray players will play AVCHD files.

    It is possible that the following free software could
    burn the video DVD for you.

  • Why so long for creating DVDs?

    Windows vista x 32 dvd creation... it takes at least 4-5 hours to burn a disc. It's waaay too long. y at - there other burning software which is faster but still simple. I burn the files .avi (for free, of course). also try to change some .avi files that are too big to fit on the disc - tried DVD Shrink. think I need to convert files .avi somehow. any help will be greatly appreciated!

    DVD movie will not import .avi files...

    =====================================
    FWIW... If you had a DVD player that was .avi (Divx/XviD)
    compatible, you can create a simple data CD/DVD
    and play on your TV with no conversion.

    Anyway... what happens when you try to import .avi files?

    Maybe the following converter can convert and/or split files.
    (when it comes to video editing is never a guarantee...
    Just to experiment)

  • AVI files created from the same quality as the DVD engraved project?

    If I have a project and go to 'Share', I can create an AVI file specified as (use for editing in Adobe Premiere Elements).  Is the quality of this the same file that the quality of a DVD created through 'Share' - disc - burn DVDs?  Or another way to put it--if I created an AVI file and then later burned to disk would it be quality that burn the original project to a disc?

    johnf

    Thanks for the additional information on your situation.

    Although there may be differences in quality, I doubt that you will see quality differences between the content of your timeline from the timeline compared to the burning of a collection of DV AVI to DVD-VIDEO format to DVD disc.

    In fact, the case of the intermediary to DV AVI, is the classic way of working with a large project into smaller segments. But I am the mini series before the final project to confirm that this is the case of tests. From what you wrote, you have been there and done that. What is the quality of the videos that you have prepared in this way? If good, you are on the right track.

    If you want a better resolution product, such as AVCHD to DVD disc or Blu - ray disc on Blu - ray disc format, you could burn at or considers that the intermediate file a file like AVCHD.mp4 (1920 x 1080 at 30 progressive frames per second). If you've traveled the way DVD AVCHD, you can produce with a regular DVD burner, but he needs a reader Blu - ray which takes supported AVCHD DVD or one of these media players that support the AVCHD DVD. The Blu - ray disc format on Blu - ray disc requires a drive and a Blu - ray burner.

    According to the players and its specifications, some create the HD file and put it on a card memory or USB for use in other than the DVD player players.

    Major projects that will be appreciated by all.

  • Creating Chapter Points to a Menu with an AVI file?

    Hello.

    I would like to ask a few basic questions about Adobe Premiere Elements, please.

    I have a 90 minute AVI file I want to convert to DVD format.  I want to create a menu for her with the chapters.

    EPA does do that?  If so, should I break up the AVI file in particular segments in order to create chapters, or EPA permitted the creation of points of chapter with a main, master file?

    If the EPA create chapter points, chapter points are stored in a saved project?  If I start making a menu, are the chapter points for this AVI file automatically used to make the chapters?

    Thank you very much!

    J. Michael

    PS: I'm using Windows 7 RC, if that makes a difference.

    PE will do this for you semi-automatiquement.

    First set up a DVD project and import your AVI videos (assuming it's a DV - AVI, or a guy who manages the EP - see this ARTICLE) and then just add you chapter markers to the timeline. Name them appropriately and chosse your Menu Set. Notice the word "together". Menus in PE are a combo of hand and scene selection Menus, and they will be used as necessary. You can also change various aspects of the Menus, by doing things like replacing the background image.

    When your project is saved, you will have a. DOC file is just a database in XML, which connects to your assets and provides instructions as to what has been done in the edition. There is no media in this file. This file cannot be read, used only in PE, as long as the media is always available. You must burn/sharing to get a media file playable. The engraving can be on a DVD or file.

    Good luck

  • After computer repair, Media & Quicktime no longer play .avi or MP4 files

    I'm working on the computer of a friend who has Windows Vista.  A group of computer repair worked on it a few weeks ago because he had some problems which were found to be network settings only no computer problems.  When they give it, Windows Media Player 11 no longer plays MP4 or AVI files.  He will play .mov files but not others.  They used to play fine.  It will play audio, SOMETIMES and ALWAYS shows them as music files.

    I tried to reset file associations and all that jazz but no luck.  It has notes of music in folder views, when thumbnail view is selected and when he plays in the media, it shows a double music note and plays again SOMETIMES the audio but not video.

    I installed Quicktime for Windows Vista and it will not play them, not even the audio.  Help, please.

    I'm very good for Windows up to XP versions through, but am not familiar with Vista or 7.  I know that I'm working on a large number of computers that are both friends and family, and I should get on the same page, but they have SO MANY problems with these 2 versions that I always worked at least 1 or more.  They have never had so much trouble with XP and have made sure I want a new laptop, but I want without operating system so I can install my own choice.

    In any case, I need to get the AVI files to work while my friend can see his digital films families.

    Thank you

  • Windows DVD Maker avi file is invalid or damaged

    I have a Toshiba Satellite and am running Vista Home Premium, 64-bit version. When I try to add files to Windows DVD Maker avi, I get an error message saying that the file is invalid or damaged. I no for a fact that there is nothing wrong with the file they open and play very well in one of my players and the same exact files were burned using create DVD Windows on an another Toshiba Satellit (owned by my brother) I was serching hollow these forums for a few weeks now trying things that have worked for other people. I installed ffdshow, but also mentioned in another reply vista codec pack. I have also run the sfc/scannow command in the prompt nd at the end he told me that the corrupted files have been found, but not all of them could be fixed. I have no no that much about computers of operation but I suspect that it is a bigger problem then just DVD Maker because when I try to put these files in Movie Maker, they're fine, but then when you play them or drag them to the timeline is no sound or picture. I've only had this computer for a few months and reallly wish I can use DVD Maker because all I have not use it and really like it. Please help me

  • Windows DVD Maker Gets the error with a .avi file - the file C:\\...avi is not valid or is corrupted.

    I try to use Windows DVD Maker and copy/convert a file .avi on a DVD and get the following error message when I try to add a .avi file to the queue.  I tried this on multiple .avi files:

    ****************************************************

    0 items added successfully

    1 file could not be added

    The C:\\...avi file is not valid or is corrupted.

    ****************************************************

    Also, I must stress that I have no problem looking at one/play the file on my computer, so I don't think that the file itself is really corrupted.

    I have not downloaded another software to help 'fix' this problem.

    This is my first time you try to use this software to create a DVD...

    Please advise on what I can to help resolve this problem!

  • Burn. AVI file on DVD-R Virgin

    I created a .avi file I want to burn it to a DVD so that it can be watched on a DVD player.  Essentially, just trying to convert movies to the House that I recorded on a DV tape to DVD format so that it can be monitored via a normal DVD player.  (In case it is relevant, I did the .avi file using a software called MotionDV Studio.  "It's a program that comes with the model of camcorder, Panasonic PV - GS150 Neu.)  However, when I insert a blank Sony DVD-R disc in the DVD drive in my laptop, the player does not seem to recognize that there is a disc in there.

    The DVD drive I have is an Optiarc-CDRWDVD CRX890S ATA.  I checked the features of this material on the internet and he must accept DVD-R discs.  I also checked in the device (from the control panel) Manager.  The State of the device indicates that the device is functioning properly.

    In the Windows Help and Support window, the theme of 'Format to a CD or DVD' seems to suggest that a dialog box should appear when I insert the blank disc.  However, it is not.

    I tried to use Windows Media Player to burn the .avi file but it says there is no disc in the DVD drive, even if the blank DVD-R disc is there.

    I also tried to use the Windows Explorer.  I find the .avi file that was on my hard drive, and then you press the "Burn" button while the file has been selected.  At that time, opened the DVD player and a dialog box appears asking to insert the recordable disc.  I inserted the above disc, but there is no other activity of the laptop.

    I also tried to buy a new set of DVD-R discs, but met the same problem.

    What other steps can I take to burn the .avi on the DVD file?

  • How to burn on a DVD + R .avi file in windows media player or how to convert the file, so it can be burned

    I'm looking to burn .avi files that I found in the torrent files downloaded using utorrent on a DVD + R disc.  I noticed in several forums that most of the people seem to have problems in windows media player.  Someone mentioned a program in Windows Vista that could be used, but I'm still in the stone age with Windows XP.  I took some advice and downloaded a program called ConvertXToDVD, but I don't know what to convert .avi files to in order to burn properly and play on a standard DVD player.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    ·        Have you been able to import before avi files to your Windows movie maker and the creation of DVD?

    ·        You are able to import another file without any problem format?

    Try to import another file type (format) and check if the problem persists.

     

    Step 1:

    Damaged codec is often a cause of crashes with Windows Movie Maker and Windows DVD Maker.

    If possible, use a program to convert your Windows Media movies first and then try to import it.

    Step 2:

    If the movie maker was working properly before, I suggest you to reset the windows movie maker settings. Follow the steps in the article mentioned below.
