Need Help Making DVD From DIVX

I have been unable to create a DVD-R disk from a DIVX-AVI clip.

I finally have found site: http://www.dvdsanta.com/divx-to-dvd.htm

which says in part:

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

and to then use DVDSANTA.

Can someone please tell me what the roles of #1 and #2 are in making
the DVD disk?

Thanks

Thanks Netmask.

Well, I downloaded v2.45 and tried it on my problem AVI clip that I
suspect is DIVX, (but I don't know for sure). AUTOGK failed with the
error 'unsupported audio type'. AUTOGK says my audio is 128 kps
mpeg-1/2 l3 2ch, and fails doing what is calls 'demuxing audio'.

Should I toss this clip, or can you suggest what might be wrong?

Thanks

Go to this site: http://www.vso-software.fr/ and look at ConvertXtoDVD.
This small program will convert your video files and burn them to a
DVD for you. Definitely easy to use. Try the free trial if you like.

Sorry Gecko I misread your post I thought you were trying to make a DivX not
a DVD. Probably ConvertXtoDVD is the simplest way to make a normal DVD from
a avi file (DivX or Xvid)

S'ALL RIGHT. Thanks for your responses. I will give CXD a look-see.
I have tried a few others since prior post, all to no avail.

Do it the easy way

Get a copy of ConvertXtoDVDfrom VSO software

From then on it is just point and click
