Hmm, sounds like you would need a program to encode it to DVD, it can be time consuming dependant on the length of film plus the specs of your PC.
This is what I found whilst trying to convert .mpg to DVD.

not sure on the recoding but to join them you want virtual dub.
tremendous program that will join 2 avi files very quickly as long as the resolution,sound etc are the same.
im sure nero can recode to dvd.TBH i use xbox media centre so avi's are fine for me

cheers for the replies. whats xbox media centre?
Not sure about Nero, but I know Easy CD Creator can do it, though it does take forever. They do it one frame at a time, so if you have a fast computer you should be ok, although you better prepare to leave it and do something else while it's encoding.
For reference, I did a cool music video DVD, menu and everything and that took about 2 hours to encode on my old PC (P3 1800, 256MB RAM). It had about 1/2 hours worth of video on it.
XBox media centre is the media player on the XBox game console, I'm guessing it's pretty similar to Windows Media Player, so it can play avi's, wheras most standalone DVD players can't

tis much more than media player.more like M$ media centre PC's xp.
Ahhh, it was a guess tbh. I'm not a fan of XBox, don't own one so was just having a stab at what it was
once there chipped they become so much more. use my main xbox more as a media player than anythingH2DaE said:Ahhh, it was a guess tbh. I'm not a fan of XBox, don't own one so was just having a stab at what it was

got a couple of GC's as well.only one chippedH2DaE said:I'll stick with my Gamecube and Revolution (when it comes out) thanks
but as i said the xbox is a lot more.
What can you do with a chipped GC? And tbh if I wanted to watch a video or listen to music I'd turn around and use my PC which is hooked up to my stereo
not a lot on the GC,hence why i prefer the xbox. few emulators but thats it
ive got 7.1 on the PC so could run it but find it easier to run the xbox .
also found using the TV out from the PC that the signal didnt always give the best ratio for the 16-9.
oh should have added you can stream from the PC via XBMC so you get the best of both
