    yep, but its a bit harder than just "converting" it.
    You have to open the file you wish to convert with vlc, then click file>transcode/save to file, then it gives you a list of codecs for you to choose from, choose different codecs and different qualitys for different file sizes and results, i'd write you a tutorial if you want?

    I use vlc on certain disney dvd's.. but there is another way you can use it to find out technical information about a file. Check under the View→Stream and Media Info tab when the file is playing.

    For a easy and free converter (which can handle just about everything) try IVC
    It takes a little getting used to.
    If you want a not that user friendly swiss army knife avidemux is the boy ;)
