This should solve all your converting problems ever.

You can also directly edit the .mkv files if you use magix movie edit pro 17.

Completely ignore Fimbulveter as he has no idea what he is talking about.

Your best bet is installing UTVideo (part of AMV app or wait for mirko to link it in most likely the next post) and then running the following avisynth script in VirtualDub with fast recompress mode:

Code: Select all
FFVideoSource("whatever it is called.mkv").ConvertToRGB24(matrix="Rec601")
Using Rec601 because I assume your NLE will want RGB and then you can easily convert it back to YV12 using the same matrix, thereby not losing your colourimetry. Regardless of it being HD or not as well.

Next time, use a more descriptive thread name as well, so people actually know what the thread is about. Something like "Converting pirated MKV to lossless AVI" should suffice.

Depends on the NLE, I know premiere takes YUV just fine... some effects actually are YUV, too.

Let's not dig further into how he got those .mkvs for the well being of the community, okay? :asd:
But yes, pirating anime is a bannable offence, so, to OP, consider this a warning... :nono:
