Burning DVDs - audio/video sync problems

Can anybody explain to me, in plain terms, why it is I'm having major problems burning avi files to DVD, where the audio is way out of sync with the video?

I downloaded season 11 and 12 of Top Gear and I'm trying to burn them to DVD, 2 episodes per disc. So far only one episode has burned properly so the audio and video are in sync. I can't for the life of me figure out what's different, either in the files themselves or how I'm burning them. In the one episode that I did get to work, the other episode on the disc is screwed.

I'm using Nero Vision v4.5.0.24 (part of Nero Premium 7), and the avi files are DivX. If it makes any difference, the sync is fine when played through Winamp, but off when played back through Windows Media Player, though not as bad as when burned to DVD and played back on my DVD player. That leads me to believe it's a codec issue, but AFAIK you can't change Nero's codec.

Thanks for any tips.
