mkv to avi (and keep audio!) - mspace - 04-10-2009

Did a search here, tried videovangelist, but no luck. Test wouldn't play.

What the latest favorite thing for converting mkv files to avi?

Thanks muchly . . .

Don't mess with avi, just turn it into a mov.

Install Perian, open the file with Quicktime (Pro), and wait for it to load completely. Then select Movie Properties, and extract the video file. It'll open in a new window. Go back to the mkv window, select movie properties again, and extract the audio file. Select all and copy on the audio, then go back to the window with the extracted video and Edit > Add To Movie (don't Paste). Save As a .mov and you're done.
