@kami:I'm using windows 7, I can convert avi's to mp4's but not the mkv's, @aviator:What other converter can you suggest? – Ieyasu Sawada Mar 2 '10 at 9:13
virtualdub.org should work, but you need to know what you're doing, and have the right plugins (NOT user friendly, extremely powerful). – Fake Name Mar 2 '10 at 9:22

Are you able to play the MKV files?

Do you have Haali Media Splitter installed?

Without it Windows does not know how to deal with MKV files and therefore xvid4psp will not either.

MediaCoder converts from about anything to about anything. Codecs are all contained within so you don't need to install anything else.

I've had success converting various video formats including MKV to MP4 (M4V) using HandBrake.

Like JustinStolle said, HandBrake is a good choice (though I've found that many people have a hard time using it). You might have better luck playing / converting with VLC player, or using a dedicated converter like Hamstersoft.

You may want to try tenorshare, it converts the files well.
