Answer 1

Cucusoft Video to DVD Creator is a good choice. It converts popular video formats such as AVI, MPEG, WMV, DivX, DV, VOB to DVD and burn DVD movie played on portable or home DVD player. Any video to to VCD/DVD/SVCD is even faster than real-time.

Answer 2

Interesting question.  Thanks for asking this.

Answer 3

I would imagine it's the converting and not the burning that is taking the time. I use convertxtodvd and converting and burning at 8x takes under an hour on my machine. It might be worth checking it out.

Answer 4

That's about the time it will take if you are converting an AVI to DVD. If you just put the AVI on a DVD disk as data (IE left it as AVI) then your disk would burn in a few minutes, it's the conversion process that takes the time.

HTH

Answer 8

i use "convertxtodvd".it takes approx 1½ hours to convert 4 films(from nearly every format) then approx 7 minutes to burn the 4 films with menu to a single dvd.

a trial 30 day version is available(it puts a watermark on your dvd's though).

hope this helps.
