If There's no update for the telly then

1) re-encode yourself
2) download a different version

I will have to check out my tv web site see if there is a update! If not whats the best software to convert them to avi/divx

Freemake video converter is what I use, its never let me down. I used to use convertxtodvd but I find freemake faster.

I have had the same problem with the mkv format.

I just use good old virtuldub, re-encode time I suppose depends on your PC

As dave said and re-encod time does depend on your computer, the more ram the quicker it will be.

just got the updated for my TV we will see what haoppens now, if not i will have to rencode
