    Try Staxrip.
    It's pretty straightforward.

    Hello again attar, i just did what you told me.
    I just converted Due Date, a 700MB avi file to a just 386MB MKV, StaxRip is a charm for me.

    It only took me 28 minutes to convert with my PC:
    -----------------------------------
    Windows 7 Home Premium (Activated)
    Intel(R) HD Graphics
    Intel(R) Core(TM) i5 CPU 650 @ 3.20GHz 3.20 GHz
    4.00 GB RAM
    32-Bit OS
    530 GB HDD

    Thanks attar!
