AVI files and TV Out

I have some movies in AVI format on my computer and I want to put them on my Zune 120. When I do, some are in Full screen. I converted them to a 640x480 .MP4 with IpodMe. Also, when I use my Home AV Pack and play of the movies, there is no sound. Basically, my goal is to play the movies on both my Zune and my TV with Fullscreen and good quality.

I'm not exactly sure why you don't get sound, but one thing you can do is go to settings for your device on the Zune software, then go to conversion settings.

You'll have the option there of having the software sync videos for tv output rather than Zune playback (this is the default setting), as well as adjusting quality for synced songs

re: AVI files and TV Out

Zune devices have limited audio codec support. You should check your profile settings in IpodMe to make sure your videos are being re-encoded with an audio codec that the Zune device supports. I'm not familiar with IpodMe, but this page lists the supported audio codecs in the MP4 container.

My Zunes: Black and Chocolate 30GB, Red 4GB, Black 120GB
Do,re,mi,fa,so why do I always feel like an idiot singing this.

re: AVI files and TV Out

Thanks for for the info, but the problem was with my cables. So I have sound now. But now my movies have no red color in them, so everything has a light green light yellow tint. :S
