which is the best free software to open torrent file

[djr33]

what's mkv? I'm not familiar with that format.
Anyway, I suggest finding any application that can convert it to a more standard format, then get another program that will allow you to create a video DVD, then burn that.
You don't just burn a video file and have it play on a TV, but you need to use a program to have a basic DVD setup (menus, etc).

I downloaded WinAVIVideoConverter and Movkit Batch Video Converter to convert MKV to AVI but none seems to work.
Thanks to all. I am giving up trying to do the conversion.

I use Bit Comet for all my bittorrenting needs, i used to use the official bittorrent client and then I found out that they (bittorrent inc.) had signed a partnership with Warner Bros (this means anti piracy DRM and download logs) so switched to Bit Comet. I find it much faster, as there is a built in utility to edit a windows system file to allow up to 200 connections at once (only suitable for unlimited broadband users)

And for video bittorrenting formats I recommend .rmvb - Real Media Vairable (spelling?) bitrate. it has low file sizes and high quality. an episode of family guy for example: rmvb - 56meg and Divx - 175meg.
