avi.NET will allow you to load in both MPEG-1 (VCD) and MPEG-2 (DVD/HDTV) files and convert them to an AVI file. Whether it be DivX or XviD that is chosen as the video codec, the resulting AVI file will be 100% standalone player compatible. It should play in your home dvd avi player just fine.

Using avi.NET is simple, select ‘IN’ and load in your movie file, usually a VOB or MPG file. The file will ‘INDEX’ (process will take a couple of minutes) and once completed you’ll notice many options have automatically been set and the movie is playing, you can now select ‘ADD’ to add the job to the batch list.
