do you want to be able to view it on a DVD player that is somewhat old and probaly cant read AVI?
or do you just want to store the AVI on the disc for further use on the compuer at a later time?
your dvd burner should have came with software to burn disc's.
I have Sonic Record Now to just burn the AVI to the DVD. or I also have the DVD movie maker that can turn an AVI into a viewable disc on a DVD player. all which came with my sony dvd recorder.
it will use any dvd-+r
my dvd player can play AVI so I just put multi movies in AVI format to a disc and play like that

-r and +r are just different formats. some dvd players cant read +r
for instance a OLD version of PS2 can not read +r I believe. it might be -r, i forget.
I have a '98 PS2 and the laser is not programmed to read all formats of DVD.
just read your dvd players manual and it will tell you what kinds of disc's it can read.
thats the only difference with the - and +

is your player new? can it read .AVI, DIVX, .MPG, ect?
look at the specifications of the player.
it will tell you if it can read -r and +r and AVI,DIVX, MPG formats.
if it can read AVI then just burn the movie to the disc in the AVI format. it will be smaller so u can add multi movies.
if it cant read AVI then you need to use a program that "makes" a dvd format for you. and this will take the AVI and turn it into a ISO for the player to read. u can have menus and other features too
