Default .AVI to .MPEG

Hey Guys / Gals,

I have a problem atm i have a whole heap of series off the net (The OC, Nip Tuck, etc) they are all .avi and i want to convert them to .mpeg as some of my mates DVD players dont read .avi When i try to do this in certain programs it makes them 1.2gig and even though its a 40min file, it ends up been 2 hours long. I was wondering if anyone has a easy fix for my problem, it also wouldnt let me change the bitrate to something i want.

the .avi's are XVID encoded and have a 130kbs vid / audio rate.

Cheers

Iain
