First off, there are no AVI files on your camcorder - just plain digital
video. AVI is a container for the digital video when captured to the hard
drive. You can use 1394 to capture these digital videos to your hard drive,
but those AVI files must be transcoded to MPEG-2 files before they can be
used by a DVD authoring program to create a playable disc. These MPEG-2
files from your original AVI files are then put through a process in
authoring called "remux and demux". This then creates special files called
VOB and IFO which are read by your DVD player and then shown as video on
your television.
The simplest way for your to record your digital video from the camcorder to
DVD is to purchase a standalone DVD recorder with a 1394 link on it. There
are several models to choose from, and many can be found at Best Buy,
Circuit City, CompUSA, WalMart, Kmart, Target, Sears, Penny's, and just
about any other place selling DVD players and recorders.

I want to take the .avi movie files off my digital camera, burn them
onto a DVD and play it in a standard DVD player. Is this possible?
Please help -- I can't find a straight forward answer anywere and it's
driving me crazy! Thanks a lot.
