Even though they may be avi files there are different codecs that may have been used to encode them. Since the specifics are a little too much to type here I have put a link to a faq on the clixhere! forum below.... they has all the specifics and can even help you if converting is needed. Clixhere!

The Clix 2 comes with software on a CD and one of the applications is "Movie Converter".  I suspect it is capable of converting movies with different formats into a format that is acceptable for the Clix.  However, I have not used it and do not know for sure.  Someone else may be able to confirm this.

Aunsoft VRO to AVI Converter - Convert VRO Videos to AVI

Best Way to Deinterlace VRO Videos - Convert VRO to AVI <br /><br />.VRO files are created by DVD video recorders or camcorders with Mini-DVD disc using the DVD-VR format. The disc has a 'VR_MOVIE.VRO' file, containing the raw audio and video data for all video recordings. The recording metadata along with navigation data are stored in the 'VR_MANGR.IFO' file. A backup copy of this file (VR_MANGR.BUP) is presented as well. VRO Codecs: MPEG2, same as VOB but uncompressed raw video and audio. So in some cases you can treat the VRO files just like .VOB files, but in many cases you can not use, play or edit VRO file easily. <br /><br />Audio Video Interleave (AVI) is a means of digitally storing audio and video media content in a file for playback. AVI-formatted files employ the file extension .avi. The header portion of the AVI-formatted file provides details about the file contents, such as width, height, and frame rate, while the chunks of information store the actual audio and video data. A key advantage of AVI format is its ability to be played on the majority of computers worldwide. <br /><br />With Aunsoft <b><a href="http://www.aunsoft.com/video-converter/">Best VRO File Converter</a></b>, we can convert VRO file to AVI with best quality, fastest converting speed, excellent A/V sync and so on.

You can add more than one file at a time. <br /><br />Step 3: In the drop down list menu of "Format", please select the output video format you want to get. You want to convert VRO videos to AVI, just select AVI. Then specify a location on your computer where the new file should be saved. <br /> <br />Tip: If you want to trim or crop your VRO files and get the wanted part or area, if you want to replace original audio and add background music to the VRO videos, if you want to deinterlace, remove interlaces or image noises of the videos, please click "Edit" to get into editor windows and start your DIY process. <br /><br />Step 5: Click "Convert" to begin converting the VRO to AVI files.

Is there another way to download videos on to my device without using a philips media converter

Most MP3 players can play avi movie files. If you download avi movie files to your computer and then copy them to your MP3 player then it can play them without the need to convert movies to avi files.

Sony Vegas Movie studio 8.0 - I put in pictures, video and music, but only the music plays. No video or photos appear when I play the video

Because Sony Vegas support WMV, MPG (MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4), MP4, MOV, ASF, SWF, FLV, etc. It doesn't support .avi format. So I want to know your video files format.

If ur video file format is .avi format or other video format that Sony Vegas doesn't support. We need convert AVI files into WMV, MPG, MP4, MOV supported by Sony Vegas. AVI to Sony Vegas is a good solution to import AVI to Sony Vegas for editing.

Video Converter Platinum is the most advanced AVI to Sony Vegas Converter software which can convert HD videos (inc.HD TS, HD MPG, HD MPEG, HD MP4, HD AVI), TOD, MOD, MTS, AVI (DivX, Xvid, etc.), QuickTime Video, 3GP, VOB, etc to Sony Vegas.

Coby mp610 2g mtv unknown format

Hey try to get the video file you are converting to .mtv to convert to .mov first.I had the same problems until I tried it that way.Someone else somewhere says mpg is a good format that the converter will read well and convert properly.I never tried it though.However I find that .avi files will give you problems.This is because .avi is a container not a format.

Also remember Youtube videos download as flv files and if you use MediaCoder like I do,to convert from flv to .avi you will have problems because the actual format will be Xvid and the container .avi.

fFor the sys err problem..visit the Coby USA website ...there is a firmware fix there.The actual link is on this site in another Coby mp 610 question.

I hope this works...let us know

Hw to play avi files

Hi,
Unfortunately your phone can't play .avi files. The only video formats it supports are .mp4 and .3gp. You will need to convert your .avi file to one of the two file formats I mentioned in order to watch the video on your phone. Good luck!

Flash Games Don't play?

If you reformatted from Windows Media Player on the PC you need to reformat again using the "Format" command on the Clix player itself under "Settings" "Advanced".  I am also assuming you already tried to press the reset button on the player.  If you have already done these two actions someone else will need to suggest a solution.
