How to Convert AVI to MP4 using VLC Media Player 

I just managed to convert a video of my grandma dancing for a slideshow I’m making for family to remember her by,she just passed away from Covid and I spent all day trying applications and online converters and nothing worked. I’m excited we can see you and remember you happy and surrounded by those that loved you gogo, not alone and in pain. Thank you so much Daniel!

This helped me a lot. Thank you! Never knew I could do this so easily. For those who lost the sound: add your files and click on convert/save. In the convert dialog box, click on the spanner button, i.e., edit selected profile, then click on the audio codec tab. Check the audio box if not checked, then click on encoding parameters. Under that, click on the codec drop down list, and click mp3 (or any other option if that didn't work). Hope that helped you!

Oh my goodness, Daniel! Tthis is just the instruction video I've been seeking! You've shown me how to complete the conversion task in less that 4 minutes after going through tons of applications for months. Thank you, empahtically!

Nice! Straight to the point and easy to understand. I wish more 'How To' videos were like this one! Thanks for not having a long intro, followed by your life story and instructions mixed in with bad jokes! Thank You!

Tq bro this is a next level trick for me bcz most of all smart TV's didn't support.avi format so I need to convert into MP4 format before play .... My huge respect to you for showing the trick god bless you bro 👍🙏🙏🙏

YOUR A GOD!!!! You saved the day. My daughter wants to watch the Tom and Jerry movie and I could only find AVI files and MY TV is non combatable with AVI!!!! THANK YOU THANK YOU

Just wanted to say thank you, VLC converter is a program I already had and didnt know it would convert, since this is new to me. no need to make things any more complicated! thank you thank you!

Thank you, For the years I have used VLC and never knew it could convert files. :)

OMG serius dude I was searching over the whole internet and could not find any. And now I find out I had one all the time :P Thx for the vid

Alright, it doesn't work for me, thanks!

I've been looking at spurious websites and software that is supposed to convert avi to mp4, and I had no idea it was this easy! Thank you!

Clear tutorial, direct, to the point and without music. Excellent explanation. Thank you.

After a lot of struggle I came across this video. Thank You So Much God bless you

Yes! I just found old AVI concert footage from 9 years ago on a memory card . . . . I converted it with ease after figuring out how to restore the audio from the comments. Thank you so much!!

Goshhhh thank you so muchhhh I almost want to burst my tears out because i cant open the video in capcut but then i found out that capcut doesnt support avi so ive found this Channel and bbooommm i can open ittt THANKS SO MUCHHHHHHH

Great video, I'm trying to move a .AVI clip into DaVinci and that's a no-go, so I think once it's converted to .MP4 it will work better. Thanks again!

thank you, it helped a lot! i did use the audio of the file, but i can just put it over it in another program. thank you so much!❤

Love all the horns in the background. Welcome to India 🤣

Salute to you brother, with your help i compressed my 8GB file into 50MB. Amazing...👏👏👏..with out any lossage of quality.

God bless you! You have made a very frustrating process for those of us who are technology impaired to be done with ease. Ruth

Thank you! Good tutorial just the basic information you need! Very good!🙂

Thank you. this just allowed me to take my trail camera videos and post them on amazon for my products!

thanks your a life saver i was doing some work on after effects then when i tried to save the the render que it only came up as a avi but now i have it as a mp4

Awesome dude! This is exactly what I was looking for. Worked like a charm. Thank you!!

Thanks, Sony Vegas refuses to be seen with .avi files.

YOU SAVED MY MENTAL HEALT I LOVE YOU

Hey the conversion only worked for Video, there is no Audio on the file. Anyone had this issue and can offer some help

There is no sound when I try and upload it to Instagram?

people like you are the best bro! this helped alot, since most converting websites only allow 1 gb of videos! thanks :D

Super easy to understand and follow! Thank you.

This man is the hero we needed.

hi, i started making animations using krita and trying to render them using adobe media encoder. I couldn't do it at all, uninstalled everything and tried again and nothing, tried other conversion softwares, tried to convert using the windows photo program and nothing at all I spent months trying (literally, since September). thank you so much for this tutorial, you saved my life. it is too stupid to have so few methods to convert to mp4 without using a watermark, which is the format that is most accepted by the media. Anyway, thank you so much and I'm even subscribed!

thank u dude i use fraps a recording software cause my laptop is not highend and it was the only thing it can run so a 50min video took 32gb and this helped so much thank u

YOU ARE THE BEST

No conversion is necessary I like Aix Movie Player since it readily supports all file types and has advanced capabilities that improve my video.

That is great. Another method is to use Avdshare Video Converter to convert between AVI, MP4, MOV, WMV, MPG, H.265, etc

thank you so much, you saved my life. i literally thought i had to import a 1gb video file just to transform it into mp4 on a website. life saver!

Thank you so much for this!!! 🎉❤️👏👏👏

Love this. Straight forward, and to the point.

My man you are an unbridaled genius. A million thanks

Brilliant video - just what I was looking for. Thanks.
