A video question

[Ranman]

Can anyone recommend a good (buy that I mean easy to use)
program that can turn an avi file into an mpeg.
I've tried a couple and none are to my liking.
The avi file I need to convert is 900 mgs.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

the good ones you have to pay for, like WinMPG
