.MKV to Divx/Xvid queries

i have a quick question, i work in an electric retailer store and decided to try my hand at sticking a HD movie onto a DVD...anyway what i've done is grabbed a few movie trailers somebody encoded in the .MKV format (HD 720p)if i can convert them to Divx/Xvid will i be able to play them in full resolution on a Divx enabled DVD player? (it has HDMI output and is hooked up to a *shudder* sony bravia set or is there some kind of limit to the bitrate of a HD divx movie that a normal HDMI dvd player can play?thanks in advance

I use ConvertXToDVD 3. It works excellent and it's extremly simple.

I use that software almost daily. Awesome stuff

divx isn't HD and quality wise, it sucks.

divx can't handle 720p? i just need the resolution, sound or anything isn't an issue ???besides, "ConvertXToDVD 3" isn't free, and i'm really only interested in stuff i don't have to pay for

it would be HD resolution, at something less than SD picture quality.

Good luck finding something like that free, I got mine from a rapidshare link though, so it was free. In hindsight I probably should buy it though.Also what ConvertXToDVD 3 does is convert the mkv file to VOB files which you can burn to a DVD and play in any standard DVD player, so you don't loose any quality of significance.

me confused... late at night...anyway, until tomorrow, can i get a standard dvd to play anything at full 720p? (divx or not). sorry ifi sound a little crankyEDIT: a little comparison pic for the heck of it, the top is a bad quality Xvid, the second is DVD, the third is 720p and the fourth is 1080i. the image is actually shrunk a little, so the two high defs are indistinguitable... if i spelt that writehttp://plastik.hu/media/irobot-4fele.jpg
