    Default MKV to AVI

    Hey, Anyone know of any (preferably) free software that will convert MKV to AVI?

    I don't want to lose any quality so I think I need to remux it or something?

    Thanks

    Why? Transcoding = quality loss. Download them again.

    If you must, however, try Gordian Knot. Probably the best way, but a little complex to use. Google for a tutorial http://sourceforge.net/projects/gordianknot/files/

    Ah, I didn't realise GK did MKV too, thanks, and I would, but there are a lot of videos!

    Try VirtualDubMod: http://sourceforge.net/projects/virt...2.zip/download

    I remember using it a while ago, from what I remember it isn't pretty but gets the job done

    I don't think it supports it directly actually sorry. There's probably a way to do it with it though.

    Why can't you just re-download anyway?

    Edit: Vdubmod can do it (it's what Gordian Knot uses as well) but it's MKV support isn't very good.

    http://www.videohelp.com/download/mkvextractgui.zip Can extract the audio and video streams from MKVs so you can play with them from there if you like.
