I cannot convert H.264 videos. I have the codec installed, the videos play fine, but I can't convert them (to anything).

No combination of intermediate filters could be found to make the connection.

Correction. I said I couldn't convert them to anything, but I found something I can convert it to. I couldn't convert the H.264 video to several WMV types, several AVI types, including H.263, and FFDShow. It is now working with Microsoft Video 1.

In general, compatibility between decompressor and compressor, or between compressor and avi muxer(used to mix audio stream and video stream together) caused the failure when doing avi convertion, as for WMV types, I'm not sure what happens.
As a workaround, I recommend selecting ffdshow as the compressor when doing avi convertion, it is a composite compressor including a variety of encoders. please configure it further after selecting ffdshow as compressor, select appropriate encoder from encoders list of ffdshow's configuration page, and leave other options as is or change as your demand.
