I've got 3 files on the pc in .avi format which I need to reduce in size to a more usable size that I can write onto dvd. They range in size from 653mb to 2.01 gb

I've got Adobe Elements but can't find a way of doing it with that.

Any suggestions welcome

well a DVD will hold 4.7GB anyway, so you should be able to write them on as they are. But otherwise you should be able to use an avi file to write chapters on a DVD Video Disc. Then you can just pop it into any old PC or DVD player to whatch them...

Something like Nero should do the job for you...
