What is the difference between an avi and an AVI file?
AVI, or Audio Video Interleave, is a format developed by Microsoft. MPEG is the common term of format standard created by the Moving Picture Experts Group.
AVI can be played in most Windows-based applications like Windows Media Player. MPEG works mainly with QuickTime, Apple-based applications and video discs, while MP4 is mostly used with many personal media players like iPod and PSP.
MP4 is actually MPEG-4, a subset of of the MPEG standard. What people generally refer to as MPEG is either MPEG-1 or MPEG-2. By contrast, however, MPEG-3 is not MP3, which is included in MPEG-1.
MPEG-1 is used with video compact discs (VCDs) while the higher-quality MPEG-2 is used for DVDs.
MP4's biggest difference from the other MPEG formats is its ability to store subtitles, still images and other data along with digital video and audio.
Some personal devices may advertise as "MP4 players," using the term colloquially, but actually play AMV files.
How can you convert a Windows file to a Mac file?
For the vast majority of files, there is no such thing as a "Mac file" or a "Windows file." Documents, pictures, and videos are all cross-platform.
For applications, there is no way to "convert" them to run on a different platform. You can use virtual machines, emulators, and ABI compatibility layers to run some Windows programs on a Mac. The only way to run Mac programs on Windows is to run a copy of Mac OS X in an emulator or virtual machine.
Why would you need to convert files?
There is no escaping the digital video age and understanding everything that is happening in the computer world just isn`t an option for most. We`ve all encountered that one time when someone emails you a video attachment that you can`t watch. Or perhaps it's the embarrassment of finding your business/school presentation video won't play on the presentation computer.

Sounds like you're speaking of multiplexing, a method of putting more than one television signal on the same carrier, by switching from one signal to the next (usually up to eight video feeds) in a round robin style. Since the system operates at a very high frequency and the the video is running at a much lower frequency, it's possible to do this without the television receiver, satellite receiver or cable box showing any indication this is taking place. It's most common on satellite transmissions where it's now possible to send up to eight TV separate digital channel feeds in the space it one took to feed just one analog video feed.

How do you convert a pivot file to a video file?
Smoothy Mcgyver's way:
It's not about converting, more like capturing. First download a screen capture program (i use hypercam). Then, maximize Pivot, and obviously start up hypercam. Adjust the area to be captured, press record and then play on Pivot. Edit the captured video in Windows Movie Maker, and there you go.
Ilvsy1's way:
A harder but maybe clearer and higher quality way is to save the animation as a bitmap in a folder, then play each bitmap for around 0.07 seconds. At first, it looks choppy but it turns out fine. Here's the link to one of my animations made using my way: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PlDdUlhrdp0. Another good thing about using this way is that it has no hypercam thing on the top left.
