You select the target format on I think the 3rd or 4th window.....you
get options like Best for playback.....there should be a button to press
called show more options. You will only be offered formats that your camera
is capable of putting out. If DV-AVI is not one of the options and your
camera is a normal DV camera then there may be a fault in the
camera/firwire/ilink cable/card
