Most DVD players support playing standard definition AVIs burned to a DVD data disc. Many Bluray players will play high definition AVIs, MP4s and MKVs also burned to DVD data discs, and they'll all still play the traditional DVD video discs.
How you convert your Bluray discs though depends on what formats your player supports. These are 2 HD video disc formats for Bluray which use DVDs.

If your player's more clever it'll play file types such as AVI, MP4, & MKV etc burned to a normal DVD data disc. If it's even cleverer it'll probably have a USB input and will be able to play the same file types from a USB stick or even a USB hard drive.
Somewhere in the manual should be a list of file types and formats your player supports, or post the make and model here. With any luck it'll support MP4 and MKV so you don't have to mess around creating BD5/9 or AVCD complaint video discs. |
I believe it plays all of those formats as well as a USB drive. So a simple burn to data disc will do it? If so, thanks for the help.
