when putting an avi movie file onto a dvd as data and viewing on my DIVX player it takes just a couple of minutes. is there a way of doing the same but onto a usb stick which my player accepts. if i simply copy it over it takes several minutes.
any help most welcome.

I play most of my .avi movies on a DIVX player using a usb stick - and I simply use my file explorer to copy from the PC to the usb stick. But I do use Super Copier 2 (integrates with explorer) to handle the copy process, it's much faster.
