You need to get a hold of an avi to mpg converter to change. You may not have a player for avi videos. Windows Media works. Go TOOLS>OPTIONS, and under the file types tab, make sure that avi is ticked.

Download it here: http://www.burner-software.com/AVI-to-DVD-Converter/MPEG-AVI-to-DVD-VCD-Converter.html\n\n2. Add your videos to the program (as many as you can!)\n\n3. insert blank dvd, and click convert .. \nit will convert to the right dvdvideo format, then burns automatically to dvd.\n\nits really easy and fast. Im sure you'll love it too :)

Typically you'll find a set or "rar" files with extenions like .r01 .r02 .r03, etc. It should also include .par2 files if you're lucky.\n\nTo open these files, you'll want to open .rar file with WinRar to unpack the AVI or MPG file inside. If there are 'broken' files, get QuickPar and open a .par2 file to try to fix it.\n\nIf it's really ".fr" I'm afraid I can't help.

http://www.zealotsoft.net/\nThere is a variety of video converters on this site that will function fine for you.  \nConvert the Mpg, or other format to a DVD format first.  Then go to nero and everything should be just fine and dandy.

There are many convertors available for this task. You just need to know what is the format of the movie you are trying to play, and then just search on the net for the convertor. Whenever I need to find the convertor I would use the following string: avi to mpg, or something like that. Great site for tools like this is www.download.com\n\nGood luck

u can look converter programs at http://www.download.com/Audio-Video/2001-2025_4-0.html?tag=dir\n\nbut its usual that 100-200 mb file to 2-3 gb because \n.avi  requires more harddisk space.

try changing the resolution or encoding to AVI tthen converting it later on.\n\nencoding to MPEG or DivX takes a lot of CPU and it gets messed up if you do it on the fly.

1) Download the clip to your computer\n2) If it is not in "mpg" format, you will have to convert it with a video editing program\n3) Burn the mpg file to a DVD

I've been getting the same problem too using QuickTime Pro to convert .avi or .mov files to .mp4.  I've found it's really hit or miss with the conversion.  If one file doesn't convert,  I have to go find another that will convert.  Sorry if that's not much help, but I'm glad to know I'm not the only one!  haha

if u downloaded a mpg or dat file, just use nero or some burnin s/w to make a video cd... it'll simple & easy... maintain the correct format... NTSC or PAL\n\nIf it is a iamge file... like *.iso then also nero is of best help.\n\nOther formats have to be changed to whatever suitable format u need... video or dvd and burnt in the respective media... using a video converter & the burn s/w or a combination of both like what Nero provides.
