    Video file help needed. URGENT.

    So I finally got ahold of the last two fansubbed episodes of GaoGaiGar FINAL. yay me!

    unfortunately, they're in that stupid-ass .mkv format that refuses to play on my computer without stalling every few seconds.

    SON OF A *****.

    I've followed advice of people before who told me how to get the files running. I've downloaded every damn player and codec known to man. Nothing works.

    So I'm looking for a way to convert the .mkv file to .avi, and salvage the subtitles in the process.

    I've been trying to get the FINAL OAV for about 2 months (it took me 3 just to get the TV series), and had a ton of trouble because no one seeds the series. but now I have it, and I'm going to watch it, no matter what it takes.

    Someone, PLEASE help me.

    Does it not play well on VLC?

      I hate when people encode in .mkv.

      VLC should work with it.

        Too bad you're not on AIM now, or I could try to help.

          VLC only plays the audio. I have six different media players downloaded, so I think my only choice now is to convert it.

                Try the following search then:

                .MKV to .AVI converter

                Lots of links come up. I know nothing of the .MKV file type. Never used it.

                  I have been playing with The Windows Media Encoder:

                  http://www.microsoft.com/windows/win...r/default.aspx

                  I can link to a tutorial of how it works if you want.

                  I do not know if it will work on that format (never heard of it before now) but the encoder is free and a good tool, so give it a shot!

                  Peace.

                    I play .mkv files with Matroska. Works like a charm. Its a plug-in thing for WMP.
