How to Convert DivX Format to DVD Format

Video Transcript

"You may have a couple of Divx video files lying on your computer that you don't know what to do with. Today we're going to talk about how to put them on a DVD using free software through Windows. My name is Mike and I will be your guide. I'm using a program called DVD Flick. What DVD Flick does is convert any video file you can throw at it into a watchable DVD. I have a DVD file right here, I'm sorry a Divx file right here. It's a movie trailer. All I'm going to do is just drag it on to DVD Flick, painless operation, there it is. And now I'm going to create DVD, it's going to ask me if I want to proceed, I'm going to hit yes. It's going to go through the encoding process, which even though it takes some times a little bit of a while, it's worth it. Because it's pretty pain free. Walk away, maybe burn it over night, but I mean this is going pretty quick. We're already at twenty percent done, when it done it's going to be a file that you can burn directly on to a DVD, using any software you want. There's actually a way to burn it with this directly so you don't have to do anything else but click burn. Okay the conversion is done, and we ended up with a file that got pretty large. It went from a seventy-six megabyte video Divx file to a ISO that is one hundred and fifty-three megabytes. But it's ready to be burned on to any blank DVD, and then you pop it in any DVD player and it's going to play. So all in all it does take up more space, but you delete it when you're done, and pretty simple operation. So that's the basic way to convert Divx to DVD, it's a little bit different on a Mac. But on the Windows PC pretty painless. That's how you do it."
