Oh, I see. MEncoder then, encode just like any other file but set the resolution smaller.

Just want software just to convert any type of file to m-hd (mkv), so not looking for any pro software to rip a blu-ray and then convert just looking for something to convert hd rips into smaller m-hd mkv files

Got handbrake to work, didn't need makedvd since not ripping direct from disc, wanted to try MeGUI but couldn't find noob guide to setup vbox vm

Which codec are you using to encode? Are you sure you're using x264?

It should all kind of come together, but I can't recall and have no way to test it nowadays.

To clarify, x264 is an encoding tool for encoding videos in the H.264/AVC format. From what you posted earlier, it sounds like you encoded with XVID (the H.263/DIVX format), and that would be the reason it was put into an AVI container.
