    I'm looking for a free software that converts mkv video files to .AVI. I searched Google but i couldn't find anything that works. I also searched the boards, and found nothing. Please help!

    Otherwise try nonags.com. They have tons of sweet free software with no ANNOYING limitations. :)

    From my experience, Super is borderline spyware. It's borderline because it doesn't have the negative effects of spyware, but some of the tactics used in the implementation of the site and program itself is VERY suspicious and raises many red flags.

    MediaCoder and avidemux should be able to do this. I can use those tools to convert avi to mkv, so it should be able to do vice versa.
