Default AVI Converter problems

I have a Rockchip player on which I have yet to be able to get videos working. I'm getting a bit frustrated with it.

I tried to AVI Converter 4.00 tool and it either gives me format error messages, or it closes down completely after giving me a "mencoder needs to be closed, sorry for the problem" message (a Windows error message). I tried converting an MPEG 1 file and it did not do anything at all, no error messages, but the progress bar didn't move. I am not sure why it did nothing.

First, I think I will try another converter. However, I also have a question about native AVIs.

I downloaded a public-domain movie last night, which is a native AVI file. I have a 2.4" screen and know the settings I'm supposed to use. So if the file's an AVI already, would I still need to run it through the converter, so my player can actually use it?
