You can convert an AVI format to an IFO DVD file format. An AVI video is an average video format that can play on most media applications. This file has the extension of ".avi." An IFO file is a DVD format that contains information about the DVD such as "Chapters." You can download applications that allow you to convert from AVI videos to IFO format. These include Movavi Converter and AVI DivX MPEG to DVD Converter.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Change the "Output" format. The "Output" file is the ".IFO" format. Typically, on the main window of the program, an "Output" or "Convert To" option is available. Modify the option to read ".IFO" or "DVD Video Files." The AVI DivX application automatically is set to the "DVD" option.

  2. Step 2

    Select the "Output" folder. In the main window of the application, locate "Output Folder" or "Save To." Some programs have an "Option," "Tool" or "Preference" tab in the toolbar section. Enter the name of the folder to save the conversion. You can use the default directory as well.

  3. Step 3

    Insert the AVI video to convert. You can add one file or several at the same time. View the quick toolbar for "Add," "Add Files," "Plus Symbol" or "Browse." Select the AVI files from your hard drive. Press the "Open" tab.

  4. Step 4

    Click the "Convert" or "Start" buttons to begin. It takes approximately five minutes to convert AVI to IFO.

Tips & Warnings
  • The trial version of the conversion application has limitations. You may have a time limit on the video or a watermark.
