Whats the best way to convert something from a .mov format to another format (mpg/avi/etc.) - and whats the best format to convert to... and a good editor for that.. and... umm.. ok.. that is all.

basically: my digi camera takes movies @ 3 sizes (small - 160x100? / medium - 320x200? / large - 640 x 480) - saves them in mov format

 

download a MOV to (insert media file here) converter. thats the easiest way. check out download.com and do a search for MOV converter.

another method is if your camera came with software to convert file formats.

yah, did a 'lil search, wondering if anyone used a particular one

and as far as i can tell, it only saves to mov format - got some great sound bytes soon as i figure out how to save 'em separate... shows how LOUD my car really is.. couple of accels ~ 20-60

 

I kind of have a similar question...Does anybody know what format the iPod video uses? I think its .MOV...I'm wondering becasue I'm getting one for x-mas and was wondering if any of you could suggest a good program to convert to that file format?

Also, do any of you guys know a good program for ripping DVD's?

Thanks.

EDIT:I think iPod video format is .MP4 or .AVI

 

aac or something like that. but it also does m4v, mp4, mov.

 

Yeah, I found a good program for ripping DVD's while searching t3h intarweb....Here's a link to download the program for anybody interested...
