+<h2>Introduction</h2>
+This is a simple tutorial (or, at least, as simply put as possible) on how
+to convert your video files to RVF (Rockbox Video File), to be played on
+the Archos Recorder / FM Recorder / V2 line.
+
+<p> See also Fabian Merki's <a
+ href="http://merkisoft.ch/rockbox/">msi-rvf-gallery</a>, a Java program for
+ building RVF movies out of individual JPEGs.
+
+<h3>How To Convert AVI to RVF</h3>
+<p>
+ <b><big>This Process Is For Windows Users Only</big></b>
+<ol>
+
+<li> Convert your movie file to an AVI file, uncompressed, and with the size:
+   112x64. There are quite a few programs out there that will do this for you,
+   so I will leave this step up to you. One such program is "BPS Video
+   Converter" available online. Use google if you need.
+
+<li> Download the tools required here:

+   Unzip to a PATH, such as C:\RVF, that is easily remembered.
+
+<li> Press START on your taskbar, choose RUN and type in the box (minus
+   quotes): "command" You should now be looking at a command prompt. If you
+   don't know basic DOS commands, here is what you need to know:
+<br>
+   cd > change dir (format: cd <dir>) IE: "cd .." to go UP one, "cd ROCKBOX" to enter a path "ROCKBOX"
+
+<li> Navigate to your PATH in DOS prompt, using "cd" as illustrated above.
+
+<li> Run the file, avitoyuv, which was in the packet you earlier downloaded, using the format:
+<pre>
+	avitoyuv [input.avi] [output.yuv]
+</pre>
+   For example, if your AVI movie is called "filename" then you'd put in the following:
+<pre>
+	avitoyuv filename.avi filename.yuv
+</ptr>
+
+   OPTIONAL: You can name the output file differently, whatever you specify it
+   will be called.  INFO: This can take long to convert.
+
+<li> Now run the file, halftone, which was in the packet you earlier downloaded, using the format:
+<pre>
+	halftone [input.yuv] [output.rvf]
+</pre>
+   For example, if your YUV output from step 5 is called "filename" then you'd put in the following:
+<pre>
+	halftone filename.yuv filename.rvf
+</pre>
+
+ OPTIONAL: You can name the output differently, again. INFO: When this is
+ done, a long list will appear on your DOS screen and you will be back at the
+ command prompt again.
+
+<li> Copy the .rvf output to your jukebox, load up a recent daily build and
+   plugins, and kick back and watch the movie!
