Is It Possible to Play Xvid Videos or Movies on a DVD Player?

Burn Xvid to DVD

Actually, only a handful of modern DVD and Blu-ray players own the ability to play Xvid files. You know what, Xvid is not a video format like the familiar MP4, MKV, etc., instead, it's a video codec that's used to compress and decompress video using MPEG-4 technology, which competes with DivX. So, if you want to play Xvid files in most DVD players, the most reliable method is to burn Xvid videos to a DVD-video disk.

On the other hand, XviD-encoded videos are generally stored in AVI and MKV containers which may not be supported by some DVD authoring programs. To save your time and budget, let's cut to the chase, I'll make a demonstration to show you how to burn Xvid files to DVD disk, totally free of charge.
