Convert AVI to MPEG1 file

[scubiwho20]

Hi Guys
Please can you help with the setting or setting that I should remember when I convert from AVI to MPEG1.
I got a AVI movie from friend 780 Megs and want to covert it to a MPEG1, to play on my Sony 42 In LCD TV. Using a flash disk as the TV has the facility to play only MPEG1 files from a USB Flash disk.
I am using Mediacoder but the picture is not coming out full screen on the TV, tried changing the TV , but no luck.

Please , do you know the settings for Mediacoder, thanks.
Vaughan

it's going to come out kuk quality. Don't you have any other way of getting the AVI to the TV? burn it to a DVD? hook the TV directly to your puter with HDMI? MPEG1 sucks man.
