What format files to play on dvd players ? ???

[simzzzz]

OK peeeps
i want to burn some dvd's from downloaded stuff, lost, heroes, films etc..
most of my files are in DivX, but they wont play on my dvd player, I have had lots of dvds that do work but I aint sure how or what format they should be burned in to work ????
I have got Nero 7 so if any one can help tell me what to do so I can watch them on my dvd player instead of my computer, I will be very thankful

It's so much cheaper / less hassle to get a DIVX player than arse about converting from AVI to DVD...

You can pick up a DIVX player for around 30 quid these days...

I've got a LG HDMI one - paid 90 for it about 9 months ago - sure they are loads cheaper than that now

I need a player that'll also play WMV...

Ive just worked out how to do this with Nero lol duuurrr , at least with .avi files that is. Its dead simple

If youve got Nero 7 Premium then there is a bit where you can burn your own dvd from files of a particular type, and it encodes it to a dvd format

Im halfway through series 3 of the sopranos, unfortunately it only fits 2 episodes per dvd because the size of the files are huge

Banged em in my dvd player downstairs and bingo, quality is ace as well
