JSngry Posted December 28, 2005 Report Posted December 28, 2005 OK, young master charles got his video ipod for christmas and he was all excited that all the videos that he had on his computer were going to be able to go to his ipod.....WRONG. Apparently the ipod only supports mpeg4 video and all of his videos are either mpeg2 or wmv or quicktime. Does anyone know where we could find a free piece of encoder software so that he wont have to spend $30.00 for quicktime pro? Thanks! Quote
vibes Posted December 28, 2005 Report Posted December 28, 2005 It's not free, but I bought this and have had excellent results with it: Converter This software lets you convert DVDs to .mp4 and various types of video formats over to .mp4, so that they can be viewed on the video iPod. I searched and found this app, and it looks like it's free, but I haven't tried it: Videora Good luck! Quote
WD45 Posted December 28, 2005 Report Posted December 28, 2005 I did some extensive searches after downloading some 350 MB mp4 video files from archive.org. There are no free versions, to my knowledge. There are some as cheap as the $30 you mention, but that is about the cheapest you will find. Quote
