I haven't done this for aaaaaages.
I have a few avi files I want to burn to a DVD to watch on a DVD player.
Do I just burn them as an avi file and it's fine, or do I need to convert them to something??
:D

This. Or plug you laptop into your plasma via HDMI. DVD will be obsolete within 10 years or sooner i think.

Get a media player, and copy the files onto USB stick, or an external hard drive :)

Convert into drg format and watch on your Nintendo DS :)
