No, you can use brasero to create an ISO from an AVI that can then be played on a standard DVD player. "Create a video DVD", then burn the resulting ISO to a DVD. At least that's the way it's supposed to work, but it frequently crashes while creating the DVD for some unknown reason, which is why I was investigating an alternative in the first place. Trouble with the alternatives is that my father-in-law is a Linux newbie and probably would have equally as hard of a time using nero on windows.
