How to Convert MP4 to AVI Format?

MP4 is the official multimedia container for MPEG-4 video and audio. While MP4 works fine as a container format, it does have some issues that need to be resolved. Its primary problem is in audio support. Like the MPEG-2 container formats (Program Stream and Transport Stream) MP4 allows both native audio streams (encoded to a standard defined as part of MPEG-4) and private streams (those not part of the MPEG-4 specs). Unlike those formats, however, there's very little support among software and hardware vendors reading private streams. As a result, if your MP4 file contains audio in a format other than AAC there's a good chance your player won't be able to read it.
