Your question is s a little like asking how to build a car ! The first place I would start is to use some of the help files. You probably made a data DVD with the avi file on it although it should play on your computer. Read about DVD discs, mpg2 format (required), how to make and burn a DVD. Toast has some great help files. What type of AVI and where did you get it? Were you able to play it on your computer with audio? If so what program?

Camerons27 Posted June 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2009 I play all my DVDs on VLC. And I guess I will look over the help files, I am just really confused and new to this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cameron, You first said that you wanted to burn an avi file to a DVD to play on your DVD player but now you say that you play all your DVDs with VLC. When you say DVD player, do you mean the thing attached to your TV or VLC. Why do you convert? VLC should play a DVD avi file. You said that you lost the audio. Are you sure it was there to begin with? How did you burn the avi file to the DVD? as a data disc or as a DVD (movie). Where did you get the avi file? If you download it, there may be some copyright protection involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tsantee Posted June 13, 2009 Report Share Posted June 13, 2009 If a DVD created from an AVI file has no sound you need to download and install the Perian codec available at perian.org. Then you'll need to do the project over again in Toast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Camerons27 Posted June 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2009 Hey sorry, I meant .AVI files... not DVD. I burned the AVI as a movie on toast and the DVD worked fine there was just no sound, ill try the codec thing from perian, but if there is anything else..... thanks!
