http://live.pirillo.com/ – AntGuru123 from YouTube wants to know how he can convert his BIK files, from an EA Sports game, into a format that Windows Movie Maker can use.

Jake Ludington from MediaBlab chimes in on this:

BIK files are Bink & Smacker files, in theory you can convert from BIK to AVI with the free Bink & Smacker tool; however, there may be some problems as certain BIK files have settings which causes the video conversion to be in a lower quality than what the video game may display.

You can download the free Bink tools from RAD Game Designs.
