From MPEG-2 to Divx?
Or, From DivX to MPEG-2?

You might be able to save in DivX format if you get a codec. I assume you can download a codec (or a complete conversion program) at DivX.com or free-codecs.com.

Or you can search the net for "MPEG to DivX". You should find lots of programs that can do it. One "universal conversion" program you can try is caled SUPER (FREE!!!).

Note that DivX and Xvid are highly compressed formats, and they are not "mainstream" formats. IMHO - They are for hobbyists, experimenters and "hackers". Even with the mainstream formats, there are infinite variations, and potential problems and difficulties.

And, if you try to convert-back to MPEG-2, of try to make a DVD from the DivX you may have difficulty, and the video quality will be degraded due to two additional "lossy" encode steps.

If you want to do it using Videostudio, install the DivX codec if you haven't done so already, insert the MPEG2 file into the timeline, go to Share, then Create Video File, select AVI for the output format, and click on the Options button. Go to the Compression tab and select DivX as the codec.
