When searching online, you may find many posts that using AVIgenerator (V1.8, V1.8, V2.0 etc) can convert the .264/.h264 files to AVI format which most of media players can support. However, when I tried this method, I failed to generate .AVI files for my .264 video files recently recorded by IP cameras.

#2. A [Open Media] window will pop-up, click 'Add' to add the .264 file needs to convert. Then, click 'Convert/Save' button to continue.
#3. Selecting ' Video - H.264 + MP3 (MP4)' in Profile list, click 'Config' icon to config the profile setting.
#4. Selecting the 'MPEG-TS', not the MP4/MOV (default), then go to 'Audio codec' to disable audio.
#5. Go to 'Video codec' tab, choosing 'H-264' in Codec listing, then select/check 'Keep original video track'. This step is very important.
#6. Clicking 'Save' to save the profile setting, then click 'Browser' to select the directory where the generated file need to be stored. Thereafter, click 'Start' to proceed file generating. Just several seconds, you will get files with .ts file extension.
#7. Run the Handbrake software, import the .ts file to convert.
Lastly, Handbrake is my favorite media file converting software. I spent the whole day to find the way to play and convert .264/.h264 video files, unfortunately I solved this.
