Hi

I'd like to convert some .AVI movies to .MPEG (1/2). How can I do it?

Thanks

You can use ffmpegx if you are running OS X. Toast 5 will convert avi and movie files to mpeg-1, while I believe Toast 6 will convert to either mpeg-1 or mpeg-2. I use Toast 5 so I cannnot say for certain if you can create separate mpeg-1 and -2 files with Toast 6, as I have heard some people say that they can only create VCD (mpeg-1) or SVCD (mpeg-2) disks, not separate mpegs.

Hi

Ok, I'll try ffMPEGX or TOAST 6, but there is any way to join subtitles in MPEG?

that's right, 6 removes the mpeg QT export component, but you can still have it author a disc image and then rip the mpeg stream from that.
