How to convert AVI TO DVD with DVD Santa, Very Easy guide

How can I take a DivX/Xvid movie (or any other video formats) that I have and burn it onto a DVD so I can play it in any DVD player?
Before You Start...
dvdSanta supports almost all kinds of video formats, such as AVI, DivX, Xvid, WMV, ASF, MPG, VOB.... To ensure that dvdSanta can burn your most up-to-date video files onto DVD. You need to have some latest audio and video codecs installed on your PC. If you do have all the codecs you need on your PC, skip this part and read Step 1.

* 1) Install latest Microsoft DirectX 9.
* 2) Install latest Microsoft Windows Media 9.
* 3) Install the latest Official Xvid codec from nic.dnsalias.com/XviD-Dec.exe
* 4) Install the latest Official Divx codec from DivX.com

NOTE: It is VERY important to have the latest DivX/Xvid codecs installed on your PC. Old codec versions may cause problems when encoding the newer video files.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Step 1, Load your video files into dvdSanta


Click "Video Files to DVD" button to convert video files.


Click "Add Media" button to load video files from the hard disk.


Select the video file you want to burn on DVD.


------------------------------------------------------------------------

Step 2, Convert the video files to DVD video format.


Click "Create DVD" button to start converting the video file.


Wait until the conversion is complete.


----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Step 3, Burn the DVD.


dvdSanta has done preparing the DVD video, now it's time to burn your disc.
Before you burn the disc, you can use a software DVD player such as PowerDVD to examine the DVD video created by dvdSanta. The DVD video is stored under c:\TempDVD\VIDEO_TS folder.
Now you can insert a blanc DVD-R/+R disc in your DVD burner now and click "Yes" to continue.
If you want to burn this DVD disc later, you can click "No" button now and quit dvdSanta. The DVD video is stored under C:\TempDVD\VIDEO_TS folder. You can burn it later using dvdSanta


If you are a using DVD+R/RW disc, just click "Burn!" and wait dvdSanta finish the burning job. If you are using a DVD-R/RW disc, you should select burning speed to 1x,2x,or 4x, then click the "Burn!" button to burn the disc.


And that's it! When the burning is finished, you can play your newly made DVD in your DVD player and watch the movie on TV!
