    Blu-ray movies? m2ts? mkv?
    What are you playing it on?

    You can use all-in-one converters like freemake video converter (NOTE ADWARE) and convert most stuff to avi. Choose to avi, select avi(xvid) preset.

    I just told you how to convert it. You might have to change the resolution/frame size to max 720x576 pixels or lower. You can do that it freemake also.

    Or use Xmedia Recode (no annoying adware), import/open the blu-ray file, select the DVD Player(Standalone) Preset. Convert. Play the avi on your DVD Player.

    Or try official Divx Converter.

  9. Normal DVD players don't play AVI files or HD video at all. If you know your DVD player plays Divx (MPEG 4 part 2, not h.264 or h.265) or Xvid in AVI you can convert to that and they should work. You'll have to reduce the resolution to 720x576 or less.

    In a nutshell, check your manual because they're all different. You can also look up your DVD model online. If you post your model# here, folks will help.

  15. You've been given a number of suggestions above. However if this is a downloaded file (as I now see in your other thread), my step by step advice would be the same as Baldrick's -- buy the DVD.

    Why not simply take the original blu-ray disk and play in on a blu-ray player? Or if you do not have a player and you want to play it from your PC hook your PC up to your TV?
