Convert .mp4 to anything I can play on a PC

I have QT Pro. Can I save an .mp4 movie to a format that can be burned to a CD or DVD and played on a PC? I've tried a Save and a Save As, but I am not presented with a list of file formats. It's probably simple, but no luck so far.
If this is not possible with QT Pro, please suggest another path. Thanks.
Mac OS X (10.3.9)

Why not install QuickTime on the Windows box? QuickTime runs every bit as well (perhaps sometimes better) under Windows as it does under MacOS...

I need an app for my Mac Pro to convert MP4 to MOV format to play in a DVD player

I need an app for my Mac Book Pro to convert MP4 to MOV format to play in a DVD player. Thanks

Quicktime can do this.
Open the MP4 in Quicktime Player. From the menu bar, File >Export > select quality. The subsequent file will be saved as .mov
Alternatively, you can simply change the extension on the mp4 file to mov since the codec is the same.
*I should mention that .mov format is not DVD format (TS_VIDEO), and the DVD will not play in a DVD player, even if you successfully burn the file to it.

Converting MP4 video to download and play on ipad Air

I have a few MP4 videos that I want to download to my ipad Air and show as my video portfolio.
I have researched this and there are so many answers but none seem to work. (tried like 4 of them already and still choppy video!)
I can't seem to find the right format to convert the videos so they work!
My import settings on itunes are : AAC Encoder: iTunesPlus (128kbps (mono)/256kbps (stereo), 44.100 Khz VBR optimized for MMX/SSE2)
I have VLC to convert the videos to m4v format but when I load them into itunes and then into my ipad, they show but the playback is choppy and no audio.
If anyone out there can give me the right formula to use in my VLC converter I would appreciate it:
Encapsulation- MP4/MOV
Video-
Codec: H.264
Bitrate: ?
Frame Rate: ?
Resolution: Width: 1280 or 720?
Height: ?
Audio-
Codec: MPEG 4 Audio (AAC)? or MPEG Audio?
Bitrate: 128?
Channels: 2?
Samplerate: 44100 or 48000?

I am having the same issue using VLC 2.1.3 - video conversion from mpg to mp4 won't play in Quicktime and are choppy when played back on my iPad Air. I don't use iTunes to upload but access them directly with FileBrowser App.

I have produced a number of DVD on my iMac. They are stored in a folder called Burn Folder. I want to get them into iTunes so I can play them on Apple TV. I have tried to convert them to MP4s using Handbrake but Handbrake does not recognize these files.

If you have the original movie files, you'd be much better converting those, otherwise try MPEGstreamclip.

Convert .mp4 to .flv with centre screen play arrow

This has to be simple to do, but I can't find instruction to do it. My .mp4 file is 480x270 pixel, and the clip is about 12 seconds long. If any one could help me out. thx

you can use adobe media encoder to convert your mp4 to an flv.
to play your flv, add an flvplayback component to your stage, select no skin for your player, assign your player an instance name (eg, flv_pb), create a large button in the center of the player and assign it a name (eg, large_btn) and use:
large_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,playF);
function playF(e:Event):void{
flv_pb.source="path/filename of your flv";
removeChild(large_btn);

Hi
Please describe How You go from PPT to iDVD. Via iMovie ?
If so - then convert Your .wma file to .aiff (same kHz) and use this in iMovie instead. (no .mp3 either)

h264.mp4 is actually the most common 'standard' (4000 video 'standards' aaaaand counting)
mp4 is indeed universal (Mac, Windows, Linux), and since YouTube, the h264 codec has a good installed base .....
you can bump into probs only when it comes to sheer amount of data:
for instance cheap 'digital frames' are sortof over-whelmed, if you try to playback 720/30p in high quality.
I'm not familiar with 21st cent devices as SmartBoards ... again, it could happen, you have to reduce resolution/fps/bit-rate to avoid clutter&stutter in the video.
I'm using such encoded files successfully on Playstation3, WD HD TV or flatscreenTVs with integrated usb-connection (via stick), etc
imho, it should work welll .............. < fingers-crossed >

I want to buy Apple TV for my grandchild so she can play videos and music from her Ipad on the family's big screen. Do I need anything else beside the Apple TV device. Also what is AirPlay? Is it an app, a service or a piece of hardware?

I want to buy an Apple TV for my grandchild so she can play content from her Ipad on her family's big screen TV. She has cable WiFi in her home does she need anything else beside the Apple TV. Also what is AirPlay. Is it an app, a service or a seperate hardware from the Apple TV?

Airplay is a wireless streaming protocol. It allows content to be pushed from the iPad through the Apple TV onto your connected HDTV.
If she wants to see the iPad displayed on the big screen and/or play games that involves mirroring. As long as it's an iPad 2 (or later) then you will be fine. More info on both has been referened below
