AVI/WMV/MPG/ETC to DVD?
Would there be a simple/easy/cheap way of converting videofiles to DVD type format?
Ultimate goal is to take videos from computer and burn to DVD to hand out to friends. "Stick this in the DVD player and hit play" is much easier than "find X codec and Y player for your computer, if you have one, and you might need to upgrade it besides..."

I burned some MPEGs to disc and popped 'em into the DVD player, they worked okay as long as it was under 2 minutes. After 2 minutes a video would lose time integrity. Not good when you want to make 2 hour videos...
