Playback Problem on my Home Theater

Hi I have a movie file on my PC with the following specs:

*** VIDEO INFO ***
Input Type : XVID(GVC)
Input Size : 640 x 320
Output Type : YUY2
Output Size : 640 x 320
FrameRate(Frame/sec) : 0.00 (29.97)

*** AUDIO INFO ***
SampleRate(Sample/sec) : 44100
BitRate(Bit/sample) : 16
Channels : 2
KBitRate(KBit/sec) : 96

It is a 699 MB file with .avi extension.I burned this movie file onto a 700 MB CD(as data cd using Nero) for playing it on my Sony Home Theater.When I try to play it the movie plays,then stops abruptly after 9 seconds.I also tried burning it with Windows,in case Nero had goofed up,but that too didn't work.
I tried fast forwarding the movie in the player as well,but movie stopped after 9 seconds.
The movie plays fully on my PC though.
Please help out on this.Thanks in advance.

Not really. I have burned several movies as Data CD to a CD and am able to play the movie on the home theater.

looks like ur HTsys does not support DivX format try encoding movie in avi format (Imtoo Converter) (any video converter) and try again

The movies that I mentioned in my earlier post were DivX only. If the problem was with the format then I doubt the player could have played the first 9 seconds.

Maybe DVD burner is at fault. Burn on some other DVD RW and report.

I don't know; I have written several movies to CDs before and quite a few after this one. Perhaps the movie file itself is corrupted.Thanks for the replies anyhow!
