Answer 1

if the file format is .avi and is small enough (700mb or under) then you can burn it as a vcd onto a cdr - this should then play on most dvd players

Answer 2

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.

Unbiased reviews and side-by-side comparisons of the DVD creator give you enough information to research the ins and outs of a particular product:

Answer 3

From http://www.videolan.org/vlc/

"VLC media player is a highly portable multimedia player for various audio and video formats (MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4, DivX, mp3, ogg, ...)"

So the file you are trying to convert is probably not a VLC file, but a file type that is supported by VLC.

Check which format your media file is in then either ask again or google/yahoo for conversion software.
