WinAVi is quite a handy program, it give you the option of selecting the source and destination format of the file and converts it at a fairly fast rate.
Depends on the file size within the .img, a straight forward extractions takes only few minutes. However if the extracted file in not in .avi format, then converting could take possibly up to an hour or less depending on the file size.
