ok so usually when you download animes from torrents and so they will be in OGM or MKV and yes I download all my series from torrents (Except few series and all movies) but its only because that I live in denmark and they dont have anime >_> (Except shows like naruto and yugioh of course >_>) but really what I wanna know is if I can get an easy free converter >_>? P.s plz dont make comments like "you can buy anime on this website"..

There's something called Avidemux.
Google it, you'll find something 4 sure.

or you can look at one of the many topics in this forum pertaining to mkv files where people have answered the question already

First of all, go to file - open via avisynth. Things are pretty obvious, and they should normally be in most Vdub versions:

If they aren't, you can always try doing it with the script editor. Try to open the file via avisynth, and once you get the error message, go to "Tools - Script Editor". There, change "AVISource" to "DirectShowSource", so it should be like this:

If the problem still consists after that, you're obviously missing any form of .h264 codecs. Downloading CCCP (Combined Community Codec Pack) from here should fix that.

If nothing mentioned above works, you're most probably doing something wrong.

Hope that helped.
And remember.
CtS for most helpful 2009. :p

So does it give you that message when you try opening it with DirectShowSource?

Download ffmpegsource, extract it to your AviSynth plugins folder, and make the following .avs script:

Code: Select all

loadplugin("C:\Program Files\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\ffmpegsource.dll")
ffmpegsource("C:\blah\myfile.mkv")

Alter the path and file names as necessary.
