If you love gaming then I am sure you must have played the Need for Speed’s several version and most probably liked the videos included with in. But what to do if you want to watch them directly. These videos are included with in a file type as extension .vp6 and most of the media players we generally know aren’t able to play them. So what to do now is any solution available? Below i will tell you the best and only software available to convert and watch these videos apart from playing the game separately.

Here first the paid one though its trial version also available:

This is called Aunosft Video converter and is able to convert almost any type of video files to and from  DivX AVI, DV-AVI, VP6 AVI, etc via VFW Codec. Here VFW it has described as the short for Video for Windows.

1. First you need to download and install this video converter to your pc from the link here and launch it.

2. Add your video files to it (You can add any video extension apart from the .vp6), and then select “Common video” in the drop-down list of “Format”, after that opt for an AVI format, please pay attention, only any AVI format here allows you using VFW codec to encode your file.

3. Click “Settings”, the following interface will pop up. Now in the video codec, you are able to see DivX codec and get hold of it. As soon as you have chosen DivX—a VFW codec, you will find that the parameter like video bitrate can’t be adjusted. Now you can click “Config” to set your encoder settings.

4. After clicking “Config”, you will see the interface below, and now you can set the parameters on it according to your own requirements. After settings, please click “OK” to save.

5. Confirm the output path and convert to start your videos to DivX AVI via VFW codec now. Only few minutes, you could get your high quality AVI files encoded with DivX.

The above one is the paid version (it also provide the trial download more info from the link here) which can convert .vp6 or any other type video file now the free one though bit complicated.

The best possible free way available to convert it is by using software called “NFSC vp6 Player”. This software is absolutely free to download and can be downloaded from the link here. The screen shot of the first screen you faced with, is provided below

Chances are that you may confused with the screen shown above so don’t confused as this is the free version and I have already mentioned it as a bit complicated method, but below i have included what all the buttons means

The extreme left button : Viewing in Full Screen

Second button: To Browse for the .vp6 file

Third button: To start conversion process

Fourth button: Opens up the online Help

Last button: Exit button

This application is also very powerfull to convert .vp6 files with a superb quality and can be used as many times as we want but the only disadvantage it has that many times it can’t sync audio with video files though it can be later merged easily with a windows movie maker. Enjoy watching
