My Philips Portable DVD Player dont read avi files, how can I write my avi files to dvd discs to be readable.

The lens isnt reading the disc get a lense cleaner n run it twice that should solve the problem

I find the reason and solution for avi won't play in a DVD player from this article https://www.idealshare.net/video-converter/avi-dvd-player-solution.html DVD Player Won Play AVI Solution Convert AVI to DVD Player Format

This DVD player only supports DVD and Audio CD format. There is no Divx decoder so your avi. files wont play on this player.It does not even support MP3 music files.

possible dirty lens. Buys lens cleaner, or bad lens

what error does it give? mine reads avis fine, as long as theyre within resolution limits. same for windows media format. couldnt get the mkv files to work though. the usb drive has to be formatted fat32, ntfs does not seem to work. burning these files to dvd as a data disc is another option. lets you fit 10+ hours of video on the disc vs your standard 2 or 4 hour max limits.

Are you talking about a stand alone dvd players?

If you are talking about a stand alone dvd player, that is correct they do not player .avi extension file. I know some portable dvd player can play avi extension files.

all avi extension files needs the right audio and video codec to be player. All stand alone dvd players does not and can not detect codec for you.

On the issues of dvd-r brands, Some stand alone dvd players can only play dvd+r type dvds. ck your brand of dvd disc and players, make sure they are complatible with each other.

The player actually loads divx (.avi) format files. It does not loads some .mp4 format files.

1.try to upload your videos to ULEAD movie maker and save it with any types of videos you like avi, divx, vcd, dvd etc.. or

2. if your disc is readable on your pc and its not playable then try to decode it by using xilisoft video converter. decode the files on your disc and after that burn it into a dvd or vcd. it should be playable now on your dvd player. hope that helps!

Hope it was the non-acetone type of polish remover - acetone will melt plastic !!

Invest in a laser eye cleaning disk - the kind with the tiny brushes.

OK what type of file format are the files in on the disk you are tying to play?

IDM-1731 does not like .AVIs.

Check your documentation as to what type of files your player can actually read and play.

Sorry I'm not more help.
