How to Convert MPEG-4 to DivX
- 1). Download the YASA Video Converter. Upon downloading, a setup icon will appear. Double-click on the icon to run the setup. YASA has installation screens that will walk you through the process of installing the YASA Video Converter onto your computer.
- 2). Add the MPEG-4 file to the converter. When you click on the button to add a file, which has a picture on it that looks like the tip of a wand over a crooked yellow plus sign, a window will open. Browse for the MPEG-4 and upload it to the program by clicking "Open." The name of the file will appear in the YASA screen.
- 3). Select DivX as your output format. Available output formats are listed in the "Output Profiles" drop-down list. The DivX selection is listed as "DivX Movie (*.avi)." The file will use DivX compression and save as an AVI.
- 4). Type a name for the DivX AVI file. You can enter the file name next to "Output Video File." If you would like to designate a folder where the file should save, click on the "Go to folder" button, browse for the folder of your choice, and click "OK." If you do not select a folder, the DivX AVI file will save into the same folder in which the MPEG-4 file is located.
- 5). Begin the file conversion. The button that starts the conversion process in YASA has an image on it with a white, upside down triangle at the top and a small green triangle below it, pointing toward the right. It looks somewhat like a funnel. When you hover over the button, it will show that it is the button to convert. You can monitor the progress in YASA, and you will receive a message on your computer screen when the conversion is complete. The DivX copy of the file will now be available in the folder you chose for output.
