Got yet another problem, I'm trying to encode a collection of anime that is in .ogm with .ssa files (subtitles) to .avi. Does anyone know of a program that can do such?

P.S. I would prefer a program on Mac, but I have a Windows XP machine, so if that's the only option, I just may go with that one. Also, would Final Cut Pro be able to convert the .ogm to .avi?

If you just want to watch on your PPC, leave them as OGM, as betaplayer can play them, and re-encoding will reduce quality. If you *really* want to convert them, use VirtualDub to decompress the OGG stream to wav, then change the source audio for the avi as the .wav you just made, set it to full processing mode, and chose your new compression (mp3?)

Great response, didn't know TCPMP could play .ogm videos, knew about the .ogg stream, not the video though. I've worked with VirtualDub before, great program, now if they only made it for Mac...

Thanks for the response!

That's good advice. If you do, at some point, have a need to perform video conversions on a Mac then check out ffmpegX, a very useful package based on well known video tools ported from Linux.

Edit: Oh, I see you have it already

BTW You might want to try the subtitle plugin for Betaplayer, it's not perfect but it does work details are here.
