I downloaded a torrent of Iron Man as a .avi file. How do I burn it to a DVDR so I can play it in my DVD player? DVDShrink is saying the file is an invalid filename and it won't let me shrink it. Any ideas?

Nero can convert it.

I think total video converter can also do it.

If you have a 360 or PS3, you can just burn it to a disk.

It might work just burning it to a disk with your DVD player as well, but not all (actually, very few) have that functionality.

Well the problem isn't the format itself. It's that it's too big of a file for the disc.

But good idea with Nero. Completely forgot about that.

O_O
it's too big?
i assume you mean it's too big for a cd.
in which case, a video converter will get it down to a slightly smaller size.

When it's a normal video format like .avi, it sizes it in minutes. My DVDRs only take 120 minutes. I belie Iron Man was about 150 minutes.

Don't go by minutes, go by megabytes.  150 minutes should fit onto a regular dvd easily.  Change the video settings in Nero to adjust accordingly.  It's really nice, I have a whole dvd collection now :)

If you want to burn it to DVD format try a program called DVDflick. It's a small app just to quickly transcode and burn dvds
