How to convert AVI to DVD format on Mac



Q 1: “I am a Mac user and have download shed loads of films (.avi) and need to convert them to DVD format. I want to know if there is any software for a Mac that will do the job.”

Q 2: “Hi people! I am after a program that will convert my avi and other movie files onto dvds. I'm not too technological, so a simple, easy to use program without much fuss would be great. If anyone could think of any, I would be very appreciative. Thanks.”The fastest and easy-to-use HD Converter to convert HD video: AVCHD(.mts,.m2ts), H.264, MKV, WMV HD to AVI, Xvid, MPEG, MP4.

Q 3: “Hi, I was wondering if anyone knows of an easy to use AVI to DVD Converter for MAC. I have a couple of AVI files that I want to burn to a DVD (to play on a DVD Player). Freeware would be great but I’m also willing to pay for a good one. Thanks...”

The above questions are usual to see while surfing over different tech forums. Although the solutions have been provided time and time again, these questions are also asked without a stop. To solve them once and for all, I specially write this guide, hope it would be of some help for you guys who are having such a requirement.

Required software:
Pavtube Video Converter for Mac

Step 1: Click “Add” button to import AVI files
Batch conversion is supported, so you are allowed to add multiple AVI files into this program at a time.

Step 2: Select DVD format as output format, and set destination folder
Click the drop-down list of “Format” firstly, and then choose “VOB Format”, after that select a DVD format according to your geographical region. Here I choose “DVD-Video Format – NTSC (*.vob)” for instance. Notice that NTSC is a video format used in North America, Central America, Japan, and parts of South America; PAL is the video format used in Europe, Africa, the Middle East, most of Asia, and parts of South America; SECAM is used in Africa, Asia, Pacific Islands, Former USSR, and Americas.


Meanwhile, if you dislike using the default save path to store the output files, you can click “Browse” button to specify a destination folder by yourselves. Suppose you’d like to join multiple AVI files to be as a single VOB file, you can tick the checkbox “Merge into one file” to realize this goal.

Step 3: Set advanced settings
Pavtube Video Converter for Mac allows users to change video and audio parameters like codec, bit rate, frame rate, screen size, etc. Just click on the “Settings” button in the above interface, after that the following window will show up. Just click on the drop-down list of all these options to select the items you preferred, and then click “OK” button to save these settings.

Step 4: Convert
As soon as the above three steps are completed, you can press the “Convert” button to start conversion. Conversion info like “Total progress”, “Time elapse”, “Estimated left”, “Generated size” and “Estimated size” are all presented in the following panel. In that case, you can manage your time and HD space properly.

After conversion is finished, you can click “Open” button to get the output files in DVD format.
