aether,
If you've got a lot of DVDs to convert you might want to consider investing in a new DVD player which plays AVIs. They're pretty cheap these days and pretty much all of them will.
Or if you want to future proof yourself a little more maybe invest in a Bluray player which plays MKV and MP4 video files. The second would be the better option because (without going into the details now) you can convert to a format which loses very little quality while being able to burn 2, 3 or 4 movies to a blank DVD disc, or over a dozen on a blank Bluray disc.
Either way, there's plenty of free programs which will do the converting for you.
PS How old is your DVD player? It might be capable of playing AVIs and you don't even realise. Does it have anything like mpeg4 or DivX in it's list of supported video types?
