| Divx is already compressed to WAY below DVD quality. You cannot get it back. | ||||||||

I do not pretend to get DVd quality from avi movie-files. | ||||||||

Oh....OK. | ||||||||

I mean the best quality relatively possible form avi-mpeg-flv, not the highest one. I did not mention Bluray quality. | ||||||||

| FLV is most likely the lowest quality on your list....especially if the video is ripped from sites like YouTube.
Divx/Xvid can be made to look acceptable on a normal sized television. Mpeg is DVD - DVD is mpeg (mpeg2) Mpeg(mpeg4) is Divx/Xvid. DVDFlick is the easiest (and free) tool to use. | ||||||||

Thanks. Anyway this DVDflick will produce great quality of DVD-s? | ||||||||

| From Divx/Xvid the best you can hope for is barely VHS quality especially if you are talking about movies @ approx. 700mb file size. They have already been squashed from about 5 or 6 gigabytes in size to 700MB...(as I said before....)the quality has already been severely compromised compared to the original.
DVDFlick will turn it into a DVD that is playable on your player....that is the best you can hope for. If you use a quality burning program and quality DVD blanks...they will last as long as any other DVD you burn. | ||||||||

| Yes it does. But only if your sources are of high quality, which is not the case here.
Edit: Ah, hech54 was a little earlier :) | ||||||||

| Hand drawing with crayons give better quality than DVD Santa.
I like AVStoDVD, which uses the high quality HCEnc encoder, and is free. DVD Flick would be second on my list, followed by the payware ConvertXtoDVD. DVD Santa I would lump with WinAVI at the bottom of the encoding toilet bowl. However unless you are going to do a lot of avisynth filtering, you will not get anything better than your source, and possibly a little lower in quality. All your source videos are compressed, most heavily by the sounds of it. Lots of damage has been done already, and re-encoding will not make them better. | ||||||||

| I tried DVDFlick, Windows Movie maker and DVD Santa, and I see that Windows Movie maker is much much better. DVDFlick seems to be the worst one. i will tray AVStoDVD |
