I have some AVI files to convert to DVDs. Where to start?

Free download a trial version. It’s easy to install; you don’t even need to configure too much. After installation, run the program.

Here’s the “Getting Started” screen. Let’s click “Load Videos…” to locate your AVI files on your hard disk drive and add them to the program.

Now all the AVI files are listed in the panel on the left. Drag and drop them one by one to the storyboard panel at the bottom, in an order you desire. For your convenience, you can choose a video to preview in the player panel on the right.

If you have multiple movies that you'd like to put into one DVD (e.g. a birthday party and a safari adventure), click "Add Titleset" button on the toolbar, then add another series of AVI movie clips into it. If you have more to go, repeat this operation.

If you'd like to trim, zoom, crop, add watermark or subtitle into a movie clip, select it in the storyboard, and click "Edit" button. The editing window contains a real-time preview allowing you to compare the original video and the edited video, and the "Reset" button always holds a second chance for you whenever you did something unsatisfactory.

NOTE: A single-layered DVD can store up to 144 minutes of videos while a dual-layer DVD can store up to 240 minutes. So please do think twice before adding in overlength videos!

After managing your storyline, let’s add some transition effects between your videos to make them look more natural. Click the “Transition” tab on the top, and choose your favored transition effect, and then drag and drop it between your videos. If you feel confused at which effect to use, click "Random to All" and the program will automatically select different transition effects between each clip.

After the titles have been set up, click “Menu” tab to create an active menu style for your DVD titles. First select a preset template from the left panel and double click to apply it. Then, customize everything----click on a title's thumbnail, and you can set a different frame for it on the left, or browse a picture to replace the auto-generated thumbnail; click "Custom Background Image", and you can use a different background; click a button to change how it looks like; click on some text to change the words appear on screen and how they should look, or add another text box somewhere in the menu.

Finally, click “Preview” tab to check if you’re satisfied with the DVD to be made by yourself. If you once thought you couldn't make DVD movies, now don't get surprised!

If you feel everything’s in place, click “Burn” tab. Now we're really doing it!

Here you can choose from 3 different output methods. Burn to DVD requires a DVD writer and an empty Data DVD. "To DVD folder" will output all files to your hard drive while keeping a DVD's folder structure. "ISO file" will output a DVD image file to your hard drive in ISO format, so that you may burn the image to an empty DVD later.

Here we suppose you own a DVD writer and an empty DVD. Place the disc inside the drive, select your TV's standard and your videos' aspect ratio, and then click "Start". Wait patiently for a little while until the burning is finished, and TA-DA! There you go, a home movie DVD produced by yourself.
