I'm considering first convert it to AVI, then convert it to real media

but converting avi take too much time and space,

besides, real media is not open source

Mencoder will do it.  If you look in the documentation for the section about two-pass MPEG4 ("Divx") encoding, that will probably do what you want.  One nice thing about Mencoder is it doesn't particularly care what the input format is -- if Mplayer can play it, Mencoder can re-encode it.
