Try googling it. I found a free program that converted video files into the format a home DVD player could play.

I have found the website Zamzar to be helpful in this regard. It does more than video files as well, and converts to almost every kind of video file. If you really need an offline application, Handbrake is what I'd use.

You can download a free "total video converter." It is really a nice software suite. It lets you convert any video to any other video format. It has various conversion formats.

AVS4YOU Video Converter is the best one I've seen out there. I use it often (have made over 800 videos in Youtube, many using that program). It has extensive editing capabilities, too; you can batch other videos, and melt them all into one video, or batch convert, or split them such that part of video 1 can be linked to video 2, etc. Very flexible software, and I use it for my HD fullscreen videos, the most. (Screen-recorded videos end up being huge, so I use the Converter to change format and size.)

It's not free, but the cost is about $60 for ALL their software in a bundle (maybe 20 programs, and some of their video and audio programs are good). I forget if I have four or more licenses with them, probably more. One per machine. The cost includes a LIFETIME of upgrades.
