Ive only managed to get it to work with MPG but you can convert everything into MPG or even make your own

[cegorach]

I wonder what software is the best to convert .avi files into .mpg. I don't have much experience with this stuff, so I hope someone will answer this question.

OK. I found something Magic Video Batch Converter and it works well (it also converts DVD, wmv files etc).

With 15 days free trial it is very useful.

If you have more programs like this to add please post your information there could be better ones somewhere.
