first off, I am not even sure if that will work. (I very well could be wrong though. :)) An AVI file is an Audio Video Integrated file, correct? which would mean it is more or less a video file. (with audio.) An MP4 is the type of file iTunes uses on your iPod, correct? (just audio, or does it include video?) My first instinct though, would be to say, yes, it does because a lot of AVI files tend to be rather large, and I know that MP3 & MP4 tend to be more compressed than most other types. So, bottom line, I think so, but I am not entirely sure. Note from jkurrle on 7/12/09: Check my comments in discussion on this topic

How do you change files to avi?

Hi avi files are a video format. You can 'convert' existing video files to avi by using a software converter. something like enright super http://www.erightsoft.com/SUPER.HTML will do this (if you are using a PC) To use it, select 'avi' from the 'output' drop down list. 'drag and drop' your video file into the blank box at the bottom. click on 'encode' depending on the speed of the computer you are using it may take 20 mins to a couple of hours. the avi file, once converted will be located in the root of your 'c' drive. You don't mention what type of file you are converting and so it may be worth checking on the website I have mentioned above to see if the file you want to convert is compatible with super. If not, maybe do a search on Google for "how do I convert < name of file type> to avi" good luck
