Converting to specific AVI

[nexus490]

I have a Technika 22-228G TV. It has USB capability and I have some MKV files that I want to play on it. I've used G Spot to find some info out about a file that I know will play on it. Its an AVI listed as having the DX50 video codec and under audio it says MPEG-1 Layer 3. I want to convert the MKV files to AVIs of the same configuration so they will play. Does anyone know how I can do this?

dx50= divx.

Use for example freemake video converter, load the mkv, choose to avi, change preset to tv quality xvid/mp3. (xvid should also work fine). If you have HD video then resize to around 720x480/576pixels or lower.

You can also use video to video converter, divx converter, xmedia recode, xvid4psp...Convert to avi with divx or xvid and with mp3 audio.

I have a Technika 22-228G TV

it seems like it is HD ready with USB and built-in DVD player.

- DX50 => DiVX 5 codec, try mkv demuxer, demux avi video and mp3 audio stream from MKV. Use AVIMuxer and mux into AVI. Copy it on USB and try to play HD without re-encoding or down-scaling.
No reason to down-scale, if you can enjoy HD.

Just DX50 tag does not confirm 100% DiVX Player compliance. Plus, Technika 22-228G must be able to handle DiVX compliant video stream as well.

if it fails to play.

If you have HD video then re-size to around 720x480/576pixels or lower.

its already been suggested.

"Hd-ready" doesn't usually mean that it supports HD file source material. Very few dvd/tv divx players supports it. Probably just that it can output it as 1080/720.

Thanks for the suggestions, using freemake as suggested I was able to get the files to play on the tv. Thanks for the help everyone.
