How to Convert a XVID to AMV
Some MP4 players can only play videos in an "AMV" format. You can convert a video in the "Xvid" format to an AMV video using free downloadable software. There is no freeware which allows you to directly convert Xvid videos to AMV, but you can use "Xvid Converter 1.1" to convert your Xvid video to an "AVI" format, then use "AMV Converter Tool 5.09" to convert the AVI video to AMV. This is useful if you wish to view an Xvid video on your MP4 player.
