At first glance Convert MPEG to AVI 3.1 seems like a simple MPEG to AVI converter, but it also allows you to do many more processes making it a great utility.
Once the MPEG has been converted to AVI it makes it into a converter, a divider and a video editor, letting you change the size, the bitrate and the audio compression codec.
It also lets you convert the resulting AVI into DivX and Xvid, or other popular formats like ASF, WMV, OGM, VCD, SVCD, DAT.
To funcion correctly it needs DirectX 9.0 or later.
