Shrink? an .avi file is mostly 700 or 1400 MB. a DVD is 4.4 GB....

DVD Compression technology is even better for feature films, because the producers can pay a professional company to easily fit a 3-hour movie onto one disk.Originally Posted by Damnatory
The only difference is that they all use those 7+gb disks, while most of use still burn to 4.7gb

try a prog called dvd2svcd which will encode avi 2 dvd but you need to get cce. the forums at www.doom9.org will help you.
Use Virtual Dub this will let you compress the avi file but will take a while.
I thnik the the thread poster should explain the problem with more detail. rly. I dont understand whats the problem.
dl Nero Vision Express, with a codec. Then convert the AVI and burn it onto a dvd-r.
Don't you just hate it when someone posts a confusing question and then never comes back.
afterdawn has a good solution to this:
