RE: how to capture in dvd avi?

The format is actually DV-AVI, which shows up as Digital Device Format
(DV-AVI) in the list of capture options in Movie Maker. In order to capture
in that format, you need to make sure the camcorder is connected via FireWire
(or iLink in Sony's case) and turned on in the VTR mode.
