Couldnt Add Videos from my Harddisk! Refund pls or add as feature

from Stardock Forums

I have a hugh collection of videos from Wallpaper engine. All this around 540 Videos are now useless, cause i couldnt add tham into DeskScapes. This should be standard. Every MP3 Converter for free can do the same. I take a file FROM MY HARDDISC, and could add it without problems. I have MKV and MP4. Bring it to work or refund. In this state the program is kinda useless.

MKV files will NOT work with DS11, only MP4, AVI or WMV (wmv uses more CPU uages though ) 

for images Jpeg or png .

MKV is not supported simply because it's not a video format. The Matroska Multimedia Container is a free and open container format, a file format that can hold an unlimited number of video, audio, picture, or subtitle tracks in one file. However, you can try to rename a videoname.mkv file to videoname.mpg and if that mkv-container has a valid video file, you will be able to use it as a Descapes dream. A more ideal solution would be to convert your mkv-files to mpg.

I convertet all my MKV to MP4. Is there a way to convert "Dream" files either? I wanna have tham all to one place. Also i wanna change the Dreams download folder from User Documents (SSD) to G: (HDD).

Edit: No refund anymore, pls. Software works! Did someone still know, how to convert a .dream file? So i can bring tham all in one format to my Harddisk. I like it simple and clean.
