I take it that you are willing to do a bit of work? If so, you can turn
your .avi files into .mpg files by using mjpegtools from the command line.
Here's how:
http://www.lydgate.org.uk/linux/AnalogueToDVD2.odp
Then you need dvdauthor installed. Create a text file called my-dvd.xml
<dvdauthor dest="/home/laurence/recordings/">
<vmgm />
<titleset> <titles>
<pgc>
<vob file="scene1.mpg"/>
<vob file="scene2.mpg"/>
<vob file="scene3.mpg"/>
<vob file="scene4.mpg"/>
<vob file="scene5.mpg"/>
<vob file="scene6.mpg"/>
</pgc>
</titles> </titleset>
</dvdauthor>
and run it with 'dvdauthor -x ../my-dvd.xml' adding a pathname if necessary.
That will give you AUDIO_TS and VIDEO_TS which you can then burn to a disk by
whatever means you normally use. Each .mpg file will be marked as a chapter.
