Does anyone have a good recommendation for software that will convert my mp4 and mkv files?
I've tried Handbrake but I never get any of the settings right, and it seems as if Handbrake won't take a m2ts file and convert it to mp4 or m4v without problems.
Is there a easier/better app that will do this?
I have recently found some floppy disks with artwork files on that I created many years ago on an Amiga computer. Thing is most of these files have the .IFF extension.
Does anybody know an a program or a way to either view these files or covert them to .JPEG so that I can see them on my Mac ?
I have searched everywhere and can not get a good answer. I just bought myself a new imac and this is my first mac. I used to use convertxtodvd on my pc.
I read that toast titanium does a good job of converting any video file to dvd but you can not download it to try it out, you just have to buy it. I do not want to waste my money if it does not turn out to be the quality I am looking for.
Any suggestions of any programs that does this task and performs well?
I remember hearing about a Safari plugin or application that converts Youtube videos into Quicktime MOV files. I'm doing a Powerpoint presentation and there's two online videos that I would like to convert to MOV to imbed in a Keynote presentation.

Bottom Line: I'm looking for an awesome ALL-IN-ONE file converter for the Mac that will convert most anything I throw at it. Does something like this exist? Free or not too expensive would be good too.
I am looking for a free video converting program, that will handle things such as avi,divx,mpeg, etc.
If there aren't any free ones, inexpensive ones will have to do
What do you guys (and gals) recommend?
There are many video converters on mac but I 've not found something to suit my needs.
Videomonkey(buggy?), roadmovie, mpeg streamclip etc.
Sometimes we do not want just a beautiful interface but also get the job done the way we want it.
So this is what I want:
- specify the exact video format I want my video to be converted. Not just a selection 'for ipod, for apple tv' and so on. So what? Am I supposed to make several conversions in order to see what each so labeled options mean in reality? I try to export to .mp4 and this should be a straightforward process.
- most important: limit output filesize. Specify the desirable filesize and converter should output a file that has this filesize. If anyone has seen convertxtodvd in windows, he should understand what I mean.
That can convert avi xvid (ETC) and raw dvds. Right now I have Handbrake is this my best option? Also is there an app that can add the info and dvd cover when I put it into iTunes so it will look organized?

Is there an app that can batch convert multiple video files? I found one called mpegstream clip which is good, but it seems to only do one at a time, it there a feature in it that can do more than one at a time? One at a time is ok for 4 videos or less, but when I have more than that it can get a little tedious. Specifically, I need something that can batch convert my mpg movies files my point & shoot digicam can take to a format that imovie 09 will import & work with.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI mainly am editing little clips that are 18 seconds - 2min each and putting around 25 of them together into a video with a bunch of special effects in them. I get these clips from a game called "runescape". Here is a video of something that I am trying to do, keep in mind I want it much better though. Please look at the first part of the video with the red lines coming out of the name.

1. video editing applications:
Adobe after effects vs Final cut pro 7 (I have adobe after effects right now, I don't have final cut yet)
2. movie converting:
my screen capture software is IShowU, it saves the files as a .mov, I have heard that you need .avi or .mp4 to edit videos. I have a program called "Xilisoft Video Converter".
1. Add videos to the list
2. I select "AVI - Audio-Video Interleaved as the profile (output)
3. I select a custom quality of 9999
Every movie converter I use lowers the quality of my video which is really, the method I use in the program I said above this is as close as I can get to the original video.
I have many videos that I have downloaded, ripped, and captured overtime. Some of which I would like to be able to burn to a DVD for personal use or to give to family and friends. My problem comes when trying to burn a certain video file formats to a DVD, one especially that will playback on a standard DVD player. The types of files I am interested in converting to DVD-playable are: .m2ts, .avi, .mp4, .mpeg, .mkv. Again, I would like to convert these movies, then burn them to a DVD to easily watch them on my home theater system's DVD player. So I beg the question, "Is this all possible?", "What file formats are commonly used to play from DVDs on a DVD player?" and "Are there any freeware based applications to get this job done?"

I'm a big handbrake user, but its very tedious to have to manually queue everything. Its just not practical when you've got 50+ files to do at once.
Does anyone know of a converter that just lets you bulk convert say an entire directory to h.264 from a bunch of different filetypes?
any recommendations for software for capturing streaming video.
I used Snapz Pro demo which was good but the full version is too expensive.
any others I find seem to need my passwords to activate the audio capture features
I've quickly searched around, and found too many options and no idea about the quality of each. One site has one list of ten "best" free video file converters, while another site has a completey different list of ten "best"!
So, I can't figure out what a good well-known, easy to use one is. I want to be able to convert random different types of video files into DVD-quality files to watch on my DVD player, and I want the quality to be good.
I have a M2TS video file and i need it in a MPEG 4 format.
Any searches on google turn up the same garbage software that i have to pay 40$ for. like i'm going to pay 40$ for some idiots crappy software.
any suggestions for a FREE video converter would be greatly appreciated.
also the video is 1080P HD in case you need to know that.
Im currently doing some video converting using handbrake and I was just wondering if its ok to do this for a prolonged period of time? I have 7 movies to do, and am currently on the 3rd one. They take about 30 minutes each to complete and my cpu is currently at 84C. It fluctuates anywhere from 80C to 87C. Im just wondering if I should maybe give the cpu a break or if I can just do them all in one sitting?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm sure many people, like me, have much of their video library and collection in various formats other than m4v/mp4. I was wondering if anyone has made the effort to actually convert their entire library of videos into m4v format so that it's all apple hardware compatible or if you have duplicates of everything to preserve high quality 'originals' and lower quality iphone/ipod conversions etc.
Just a simple question of how you manage your video library I suppose. I also wonder if anyone even uses iTunes to manage their videos? It seems with the increasing number of apple devices pilfering our lives (or those of us that choose to let them pilfer our lives at least) could probably do with some simplification of formats.
I am having trouble finding a free video converter. I wish to convert .mp4, .avi, etc to .wmv so I can watch them on my xbox and hopefully transfer them. I have tried a few converters most that just don't work or are 'trials' and are useless.
