Your Pioneer 444 WILL handle DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+R, DVD+RW, VCD, SVCD and
MP3.

It will NOT handle DivX or XviD (both in AVI containers).

MPEG-2 output from Pinnacle 7 will allow you to produce SVCDs and/or
DVDs in Nero 6. If you want 'best quality', you'll be restricted to
about 37 minutes on an SVCD, and about 57 minutes on a DVD. You can of
course produce SVCDs and DVDs with longer video but you'll progressively
lose quality.

If you want it to play "ordinary" DVD players you must creat a DVD-Video
compatible disk. This requires DVD authoring software.
