  need help converting lego studios video files

  Posted by Darren Fetzer on September 23, 2008 at 2:25 am

  so i’m trying to import my lego studio’s video files from my PC to my mac, but so far the only program that can read the files IS the lego studio’s program; which is hella buggy and horribly compresses my finished movies. i called up pinnacle and they were no help.

  so this is it in a nut shell. i need a program that will read these files and convert them. they are .avi files, but when i play them in VLC player it’s like there’s nothing there.

  can you LEGO program export something like a sequence of frames, or an AVI using the Animation codec? KNowing consumer products designed for kids, it is probably some proprietary version of AVI.
  Try the open source mediacoder and see if that will convert your file to a better codec.
