First off I'm new here so hello everyone ,
Anyways, I recently got a couple of blu-ray movies in .mkv format. I wanted to convert them to AVI so I could play them on my Philips DVP990 dvd player that supports AVI playback. Before I had made an account here I was searching around and found out about "MKVExtractGUI". I downloaded it and when I would start the demuxing of the video/audio it only demuxes the first 25 minutes and just stops there. I can play the mkv from stop to finish so I know it's all there, but when I look at the demuxed files the video file is only 256mb (the mkv is over 2gb so that didn't seem right) and the audio (which I opened in VLC) is only the first 25 minutes from the movie so I'm guessing that the video is the first 25 minutes as well. I tried to demux both the audio and video separately instead of at once and I got the same thing. About a week ago before I tried demuxing, I had tried to convert the movie via SUPER converter and I got the same exact thing. Since this happened with both SUPER and MKVExtractGUI is it my video file that is the issue? If so, is there any way to get around this?
Thanks

How big is the MKV and how big is the 25 minutes avi ?
If it's not running up against some kind of file size limit, (fat32?)
then perhaps the avi is corrupt. -

You could try xvid4psp to convert it; use the AVI Hardware profile -

Quality loss is unavoidable when you are re-encoding using lossy formats (e.g. xvid)
You can minimize that quality loss by using a higher bitrate (lower quantizer) / bigger filesize . In the settings, set the quantizer = 2 and the quality loss will be barely noticeable when playing. If you want to keep 6channel audio, you have to convert to AC3, so don't forget to change that in the settings as well -
