If you have not used ImgBurn before then look at the picture, it is what you will see when you first run ImgBurn. The option we are looking for is Write Files / Folders to Disc in the upper-right hand corner. Click it.
ImgBurn Build Mode
We are now in ImgBurn build mode, meaning we can add folders to compilation that we want to burn. Go to the output files that Avi2DVD left. Inside the folder, there is a DVD folder, open it. Now you will have a VIDEO_TS folder and an AUDIO_TS folder in front of you. You can now simply drag the folders with your mouse into the ImgBurn program (under Source) to add them to the compilation.
Otherwise, you can use the small Open Folder icon (the small folder with the magnifying glass) and browse through your hard drive that way. Make sure you add the VIDEO_TS and AUDIO_TS folders to the compilation as shown below.
Put DVD Folders in Root of Disc
Look at the picture to the right of this text (click it if you need to enlarge it); make sure that your ImgBurn looks the same with the VIDEO_TS and AUDIO_TS folders set to be at the root of the disc.
Next we will check the file system that is set in ImgBurn to make sure it is correct. Click the Options tab on the right of the program.
Check File System
In order for the DVD to work you need to make sure that File System is set to ISO9660 + UDF with UDF Revision set to 1.02. Next we will set the Write speed, click the Device tab to the left of the Options tab.
Set Write Speed
Insert a blank DVD disc into your DVD writer drive. ImgBurn will give you burn speed options based on your drive and media's capabilities. Set whatever Write speed you are comfortable with and you are ready to burn.
Start Burning
Click the big burn button on the ImgBurn application (shown in the picture to the right of this text).
Set Volume Label and Confirm
First you will get a pop-up asking you if you want to use a Volume Label on the disc (the program will determine one itself). The Volume Label really does not matter so you can set it to whatever you want. The next thing that you will get is a summary of what is about to be burned, as shown in the picture to the right of this text.
Click OK when you are ready to let the program begin burning.
The Burning Process
The burning process will take several minutes based on your write speed and just how much data you are burning to the disc. Once it is done you will get a message telling you that the burn was successful and you disc will be ready for you to eject and try in a DVD player.
Finally
Now you should have a pretty good idea of Avi2DVD and remember this program is still an early beta right now so it could completely change with time. I'm sure it will only get better. If you have any problems or questions please visit our Discussion Forums for help.
