I have used Nero: dvd authoring stuff is alright (does what I need) but the encoding seems to leave something to be desired.

dvdlab pro: have had good experiences with it but it won't encode avi straight to dvd

any other software you guys like, especially stuff which will encode avi to dvd?

Or programs for converting avi to mpeg2 (or 4 for that matter).

I know I can look around and find programs, but i wanted to see if there were any that a majority thought were good.

i used to use Roxio... so you could try it.

but now I like Nero much more... 10x better.

I never could get this to work well on my PC...

Now I just use iDVD on my Apple laptop, and it works quite well.

yeah, I use VSOdivxtodvd (something along those lines) every now and then. Seems to work well.

you're supposed to be able to open video_ts folders in dvdlab pro, but i haven't been able to do it with those I created with VSO
