i have heard that his program can go directly from avi to DVD and output good quality,

i was wondering if anybody is familiar with DivxtoDVD2? and if it is better than programs such as DVD santa etc?

thanks in advance!

I should add it does what it claims and while there may or may not be better encoders available, any transcoding will reduce quality. I use it to convert DivX/XviD and burn to DVD+RW for viewing on friends' stand-alone players while keeping the original. So for that it is ideal. The latest trial/paid version has a nice integrated burning feature with the option of including the original video file as well if there is space, plus subtitle support. But the free version combined with any burner proggy like Nero should generally be more than adequate. If you find anything better lemme know!

I've only used it a couple times, but I think it's one of the better "1-click" tools out there.
