Converting AVI to MP4 for FREE

Does anyone have a FREE program that can convert AVI (as well as other formats) to MP4, for my iPod Touch?

Hi,
look here http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/22923/perian
But if your signature is correct, it is of no use for you on a Windows PC, as it is Mac-only.
As for Windows (and/or Mac OSX as well) have a look at MPEG Streamclip http://www.squared5.com/svideo/mpeg-streamclip-win.html

Converting avi to mp4 for ipod??

how can i convert my avi clips from my digital camara to mp4 for my ipod

Drag the files into the open iTunes window and then convert them. Some AVI files cannot be played in iTunes and you may lose the sound upon conversion; if either happens, use Perian and MPEG Streamclip respectively.

Converted .avi to .mp4 for Premiere Pro CS6 but receive a header error.. help?

When I imported .avi video file into Premiere Pro CS6, only the audio played. I used VLC to convert the .avi file to .mp4 through a batch file. Now when I try to open the .mp4 file into Premiere Pro CS6, I receive an error "File cannot be opened because of a header error".
I've tried converting the .avi file to .mov and .wav but they receive the same header error.
I've also tried opening in Audition and resaving it as .wav pc but it still won't import to Premiere.

First, depending on what is inside the AVI file, it should/might be "naturally" supported by Premiere

Converting .swf file to .flv or mp4 for free?

Hi,
Does anyone know of a program that will allow me
to convert a .swf file to .flv or .mp4 for free?
I can only find paid software to do this.
Thanks,

Hi David,
MPEG Streamclip won't open .swf files on my computer. Any other suggestions?
Thanks,

Could depend on where you got your .swf, too. The easiest way to obtain a useful copy of the video portion of a SWF file is to ask the creator to export it for you as a movie instead of native .swf which can contain tons of information that isn't really a movie.

Programs for converting avi to mp4/h.264

As the title says. I'm looking for a really good program for this, i want really good video quality, and it doesn't matter if the program is for free or if u need to buy it. I'm a windows user.

As I understand it, AVI is a somewhat lower quality to begin with. That said, you can use Quicktime Pro to convert to your specified format. Quicktime Player for Windows is free; the QT Pro upgrade will be required to output to mp4/h.264.
You can get Quicktime via http://www.apple.com/quicktime/

Converting AVI to MP4

I have a number of older AVI files that I'm trying to convert over to MP4 so that I can not only play them on my computer, but on my HD TV as well. They are older, like I said and not in HD, but having the ability to show off my videos on the big screen
I pulled them into Premier (using the school computer after class) and queued them to convert to MP4 using H264 and 720p. Now the original files were NOT HD, and I know that the quality won't get any better during the process, but I figured that this would have less quality loss during the conversion.
The files converted in about 15 min each, and I took them home to check. Seems to play fine from my flash drive right from the TV. Cool! Trouble is, when I watched them on my computer screen all the way through to check the quality, I noticed problems. During some scenes, mostly during pans, the images smeared (the best description I can think of). It's not huge, but since it's not there on the original, I can't imagine what would cause it, unless it's the decode/encode process.
I'm going to test it with MPEG2 / HDTV 720P 24 High Quality next, but I wanted to get a feel on what would be the best option for this type of conversion. I don't really know if my TV will play the MPEG file types since I've lost the book for it. :/
As I said, they are older files and certainly not HD so I know that the quality won't improve, and I know that some degredation will occur, but I'd like to keep it to a minimum.
Thanks in advance for any advice you can offer.
Eric the Grey

According to Premiere, the original was not ntsc (512x384 (1.0) 23.97fps, Progressive) The original files were pulled from the camcorder (an older type that used big clunky video tapes, old for it's time even in 2003) by a friend since my computer at the time was not able to do so for some reason. He also encoded them the way they are now.
As to DVD, I actually did that a few years after getting the originals encoded, but a recent viewing of them showed that they degraded and some of them no longer play. The disks act like they are scratched but the disks themselves are in perfect condition. I've thought about getting a blu-ray burner and disks and putting them all on there, but that will have to wait until after the holidays at the earliest...
Anyway, I'll give the SD Youtube preset a try tonight and let you know how that works out. I'm not terribly interested in changing the aspect to widescreen. I can deal with the black borders. Once I've got the formatting figured out, I've got some more, even older videos to convert. These came from some very old 8mm film of my fathers.
Thanks again for the suggestions.

Converting .avi to .mp4: No audio

I am trying to convert an avi to mp4 so I can play it on my ipod. I only plan on doing this 1 file so it makes no sense for me to purchase Quicktime Pro or VisualHub, so my options are iSquint and MPEG Streamclip.
After trying within iSquint, the conversion works but the quality of the mp4 file is almost unwatchable.
I then tried it in MPEG Streamclip but this is where my problem begins. No matter what I do I can't get audio on any output file. The avi file plays normally in Quicktime and VLC, but I've noticed that in the player in Streamclip there is no audio.
Even exporting to other output files gives no relief either.
I've looked at http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1616285&tstart=0 that addresses a similar problem but don't see anything to help my specific situation.
Some possible useful info:
~/Library/Quicktime contains -
AppleIntermediateCodec.component
AppleMPEG2Codec.component
DivXDecoder.component
DivXEncoder.component
Flip4Mac WMV Advanced.component
Flip4Mac WMV Export.component
Flip4Mac WMV Import.component
(note the first 3 file have a white lego block as their icon, the second 3 have a white page as their icon.)
When playing the file in Quicktime the Quicktime Movie Inspector gives this info:
NMP1.avi
DivX
Format: DivX 6.0, 608 x 246, Unknown MPEG Layer 3, Stereo, 44.100 kHz
FPS: 23.98
Data Rate: 708.03 kbits/s
Normal Size: 608 x 246 pixels
Current Size: 608 x 246 (Actual)
While the file is in the MPEG Streamclip player the Stream Info displays
Bit Rate: 0.75 Mbps
Video Tracks:
DivX 5.0, 608 × 246, 23.976 fps, 634 kbps
Audio Tracks:
MPEG Layer-3 Audio stereo, 44.1 kHz, 112 kbps
Stream Files:
NMP1.avi (790.21 MB)
Does anyone know what is causing this problem and/ or know how to fix it?
Running 10.5.4 on Macbook 2.16GHz C2D 2GB
Quicktime Player v7.5
MPEG Streamclip v1.9.1
VLC v0.8.6i
thanks, b.
(ps I didn't know which section to put this thread under so went with Quicktime as a safe bet.)

Thanks for replying guys.
I tried what you suggested Ricktoronto on a small test file and it worked!
You've made my day, been trying for a couple of days to get this to work.
Is it ok to delete those DivX files from my mac now? I have the DivX player still installed, that won't crash if I delete those files, will it?
Many thanks, much appreciated.

Convert AVI movie files for burning to DVD ..

Hey .. what is the simplest way to convert AVI files to a format that can be burnt to DVD for playback on a regular DVD player ?? I know Toast Titanium is the standard but is there any other way ??
Cheers guys.

QuickTime Pro or MPEG Streamclip can convert them. Some AVIs require that Perian be installed, while others can't be converted in Mac OS X through any means; AVI is a container, not a format.

Lose audio when converting avi to mp4 on quicktime

I've read the discussions on this but can't find a fix so far.
When I try and convert an avi file to mp4 using either quicktime or MPEG Streamclip, I lose the audio. I don't believe I need to download the quicktime mpeg-2 component for mac osx given I have 10.9.1, but perhaps I do (there is debate on this and I'm confused)?
I tried downloading MPEG Streamclip 1.9.3b8 but it seems to want that component to attach itself. Should I therefore buy it - will it work?
Alternatively, should I buy quicktime 7 pro? I really don't want to.
Can somebody help...please?

So I made a successful and audio distortion free ACC/AAC mpeg4 (.MP4) video from Sony Vegas for the Ziio. You are given a choice of audio (I chose 92kbps). The problem is solved. No more distortions. And all this time I was doing twice the work by importing the MPEG- files into Any Video Recorder and converting to .MP4. That was the distortion result. Hope this helps if you're doing the same kind of work by combining video and audio. Otherwise, it's up to you...

Converting WMV to MP4 for use on iPod Classic

I have 4 videos that are WMV files. Is there a way to convert them to be able to play them on my iPod? I'm using Mac OX 10, and I have an iPod classic. I've tried using iSquint but that doesn't work. Done a little searching on here too, but haven't seen much.
Thanks!
