i think mines is around 40mins on normal priority. setting it to high priority takes less time but makes your pc slow right down.

The downloaded file is a AVI @ 700mb. but nero wouldnt burn that directly so had to convert that to DVD files (vob etc)

If it's converting it to a dvd it'll take hours.

Only thing that can cause it to take longer is the speed it's burning at.
What speed have you set it at, what speed are the dvd's rated to?

40 mins sounds like 1x or 2x, there should be an option before you click burn, should also say while it's burning.

Ahhh... you should've said that before. My PC takes around 2 hours to encode from avi to vob files. Depends on how powerful ya PC is when it comes to the encoding process.
