Making VCD's or DVD format disc...(more info inside)

Hello, now a friend of mine shown me a program that piked my interest...He basically threw in a few avi format videos and after the program was done it made a dvd playable disc!He reckons (though not tried) that it might work with other formats, like flv or mp3, etc.I just want to know what the name of the program is, I just downloaded G burner (because he reckoned it can rip xbox360 games..apparently not :( ) and it has an option to do mp3 videos into VCD format...But my vids are too large for VCD-I kinda want this program he used (he used a dvd-and it did avi which g burner can't do...) so I kinda want something like this...Because my contact is limited (low on credit, cbf'd going to his place and I forgot to get his msn :( ) I forgot to ask ;DAnyone know?

hm...Maybe Nero?
nah..Maybe Corel?

Not nero-that only just burns themonto a dvd-I want the one where it'll work on a dvd player-it's for my brother mostly you see...Might check out the other option.

I know Convertxtodvd does that.You can download say 5x30 mins t.v shows and stick them onto a dvd,with or without a menu.Nero does it aswell,through Nero Vision Express,you stick in .avi files and it recodes them to mpeg to play on a normal dvd player.

...That sounds like the program0I lack nero vision so I might locate this..thanks!PS-the tool battery came in a few days ago-my psp is running on brand new firmware thanks to it :)
