I have individual movies saved as .avi files written to 700MB CD-R discs. Currently we watch these via laptops using either QuicktimePro or VLC Player.

Can anyone recommend a DVD player that will play these movies without the need for me to convert the .avi movie files before writing to DVD discs so they play on a conventional DVD player?

Problem is AVI is just a container, the video and audio inside it can be in loads of different formats so to have a DVD player that could play all types of AVI file is going to be close on to impossible.

There are loads that claim to play DivX AVI files but most of those are limited to certain versions of DivX and or certain bit rates and resolutions.

Bugger. Thanks anyway chuck...
I've got a little small form factor computer under my TV as a dedicated media player, which would be a possibility for not a whole lot more than a high end DVD player and would give you a lot more flexibility when it comes to formats you can play.
