I'm using an older pc to stream avi files to my TV. WMP has a 2gb file size limit to stream over the network, so I need to make sure that my output avi files are no more than 2Gb each in file size. I don't mind having 2 or 3 final files to comprise the complete video, however it would be great if there were a way to insure a single file during the conversion never exceeded 2Gb.

Yes, you can use the program FormatFactory to convert an MP4 to AVI and ensure that the final AVI files are no more than 2GB in size. FormatFactory allows you to customize the output file size during the conversion process.

Go to video settings of the file using All To MP4 > Output Settings > Additional Subtitle and change the ANSI code page to 1256 which is Arabic, then your subtitles will be displayed correctly.

Yes, I can help you. It seems like there might be an issue with the video clipping function in the FormatFactory program. You could try reinstalling or updating the software to see if that resolves the problem. If the issue persists, you may want to consider using a different video editing software to achieve the desired results.

You can't change the default genre because there is no option that can be set up to modify this value. Try to open the file in Winamp, then select it on the list and press ALT +3. From that location, you can change the default genre or any other related ID3 setting.

The application allows you to add watermark to all output file formats you save. To do this, simply click on a file format, then press Output Settings. After the window opens, locate the Watermark option on the bottom. Tick it and then adjust the settings. Add image, orientation, size, etc. and that's it. Use the image below to see exactly.

I am converting a 30 minutes segments to AVI but would like to divide it in smaller segments during the conversion so the final file will be smaller. Is this possible and how?

Answer by Aiden McLeod

Yes. Using the FormatFactory utility you can split your recordings while converting, but you will have to set the beginning and the end of every piece manually. To do this, open the program, load the file that you want to split / convert and press the Option button. On the new page that opened, under the preview window, you will find the Start time and the End time. You need to set the values manually and do this for every piece of the video. There is no way to do this automatically. For more information about the product's functions, check the Help menu.

Try to change the audio settings. Use MP3 or the audio codec. You can change these settings from the Output Settings menu.

I have a little problem with Format Factory. When I change MKV to AVI the size changes also and passes from 165 MB to 230 MB but the last file I convert didn't change its size (the AVI was 165 MB like the MKV). I was wondering why, because if I can do the same thing with all the files it'll be wonderful. (I checked the properties of the files, nothing is different from the others, or I didn't see the difference). Do someone have an idea?

Stephen Prastman
Answer by Stephen Prastman

MKV should have almost double the size of the AVI file. There is something unusual with the converter. Try to re-install the application and use the same settings and you should watch the file entirely. It's possible that it's not converted as it should.
