Converting Videos for iphone 3G

I have a boat load of videos that I need to convert and load onto my iPhone 3G, can anyone help?

You need to give us more information....
What format are they in?
Are they in the correct format for the iPhone (check the Apple website for specs)?
You import them into iTunes, then sync to your phone.

  • How can I convert video for iPhone with multiple audio/subtitle? (I am using Windows)

  • What resolution to convert videos for iphone 4?

    I am converting some videos to play on my iPhone 4.  I am using AVS Video converter 7 and so far I am having no problems except 1.  On my first few videos converted and uploaded to my iPhone, the quality and even file size was great, however the resolution (or aspect ratio? I'm no pro when it comes to this) is what I concider extended widescreen.  Meaning that the width fits across the width of my phone just fine, but the height is pretty small, leaving black bars on the top and bottom of the screen, as like with an older square TV viewing a widescreen movie. (and YES I am viewing it in lansdcape orientation) Tapping the zoom/fullscreen button on the screen has no effect also.  The result of this makes the movie kind of difficult to view.  The video converter has iPhone presets which sets the resolution at 640x420.  Is this the correct setting?  If not what is to make the video the full size of my screen without having to zoom or crop anything?

    The specifications for movies are listed on Apple's iPhone website.

  • Converted video for iphone plays no sound

    When I use itunes on my PC to convert regular mpeg4 videos to play them on my iphone, the video plays, but there is no sound. Of course the manual lacks instructions for that, and just about anything else that doesn't have to do with how to buy more music from the apple store... Any ideas on why that is?

    his is because the video you converted is muxed which means the audio and video are on the same track, quicktime or iTune can not deal with this kind of videos, you may try to use videora or streamclip to convert them again.

  • Not syncing after converting videos for ipod

    SOS...I have an elGato eyetv on my mac and I have a few videos captured from it (eyetv) that i intend to put on my iPhone. I read the iPhone manual re videos (chapter 6 ipod) and follewed the instruction on converting so I did the " Converting Videos to iPhone by going to Advanced> Convert Selection for iPod". It seems iTunes did indeed the convert.
    My question is I just put my iphone on the dock to sync with itunes but it's not doing anything. It's been there over 15 mins but no prompts etc. It says SYNCING CONTACTS WITH *'S IPHONE forerver on the top field or status bar of itunes. The cord-like thing in it is moving. Meanwhile, phone says Sync in Progress. Prior to converting the videos, syncing had been flawless.
    Please help.. Thanks!

    Opppsss, i talked too early. I'm not getting a sound from the converted videos. I now remember that sound has always been compromised converting to eyetv native format to QT. Is anyone familiar with eyetv? Your help would be more than welcome as to how I convert to mpeg WITH sound.
    Thanks a lot.

  • Software to convert video to iPhone format

    Are there any software recommendations online to convert video files to a file that the iPhone can play?

    This one is free. I've used it for some time to convert video for my iPhone and it works fine, great quality too.
    I have also used it with my iPad and it works fine with that too with the same excellent results.

  • Convert video for ipod error

    Recently iTunes has stopped converting videos for me. When I right click and choose 'Convert selection for ipod' I now get "Error occured while converting 'file name'. The required file cannot be found."
    The file uploads into the library and plays great. This has just started happening in the last week or so, before then it worked fine. I am saving the original files as Quicktime MOV files and in the same location as they were being saved before.

    Hi mvlys and all,
    firstly, I assume you mean to suggest changing the preferences under the pull-down menu Edit => Preferences and then activate the Register Card "Advanced" and change the "iTunes Music folder location" to the default at installation.
    I have never changed this and do not allow iTunes to move any media to the default directory, so there is nothing to change on my installation.
    The message displayed in the pop-up says: "The required file cannot be found". This sounds more like iTunes was expecting to find some file belonging to iTunes at some specific location, but cannot. Which file is however not mentioned.
    Is this forum being monitored by Apple?
    Can we expect them to pick up on this error.

  • Converting video for use on Sidekick

    Good evening.
    This might not be the right place to post this, but here goes...
    I have a 24" iMac and would like to convert videos for use on my Sidekick LX 2009. The info on the Sidekick says it will play 3GP or MP4 (simple profile). I been trying to convert using VisualHub and HandBrake but to no luck. Any suggestions on how I can do a conversion, or what settings I need in these programs, or some other program to use?
    Thanks for the help.

    Try using MPEG Streamclip to convert the videos; more information on this issue is available in this article.

  • Convert Video to iPhone/iPod

    According to the manual and the help windows, I should be able to select or right click on a video file in the iTunes library and "Convert Video to iPhone/iPod." However, I do not find this function. All I see is "Convert to mp3." I seem to have the latest version of iTunes 7.7.1.

    Hi, Nouska.
    As explained in this article in the Apple Knowledge Base, You can convert most videos to work with iPod (emphasis added).
    Unfortunately though, iTunes supports some video files that cannot be played on iPods. So it's likely the reason you're not seeing the option to "Convert Video to iPod/iPhone" is that the files are not encoded in a certain way .

    Cant figure it out how it is working.
    How do you mean? I wonder if the XP version is the same as the Mac version. I think as a default Handbrake will respect the aspect ratio. It's only the quality you need to decide on.

  • What's a good Windows application to convert videos for the iPhone 3G?

    I've heard that Handbrake is great for converting videos to the iPhone 3G format but the current version has a bug in AAC decoding so it won't work for me.
    Are there any other alternatives that are easy to use but produce full quality iPhone videos?

    i use a program called 'videora iPhone 3G converter' available for free from www.videora.com to convert video's to iPhone compatible files. it is very easy to use. (for windows only)

  • Display won't sleep when converting video to iphone in itunes

    Whenever I convert video files to iphone under the advanced menu in itunes, my display wont sleep and the screensaver will not come on. I tried using the hot corners and the display sleeps for a few seconds and them awakens. Since conversions can take quite a while, is there any alternate method to sleep or temporarily shut off the display. I have also tried the sleep display widget and it does nothing for me.
    Thanks!

    if it's still within 12 months hardware warranty call apple and have tech support diagnose the fault. If it turns out to be hardware related -which mine was- SEND IT BACK. IF it's hardware, there's almost zip you can do except wait longer and get closer to the end of your warranty.
    My sleep issue...
    http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=4126127#4126127
    was hardware related and I ended getting a refund. Admittedly I have had a REALLY duff machine and the sleep issue was the last in a run of hardware malfunctions but if I never pursued Apple regarding a seemingly innocuous issue I would have come to the end of my warranty and been stuck with it. Now I have my money back - enough to buy a 17" C2D with a 200GB HD for less than I bought the original 15 in CD for. If it's broken get it fixed.
    Hope this helps.

  • Convert video into iPhone video?

    I have a lot of videos that I'd like to send over to my iPhone.
    Problem is that most (if not, all) do not open in iTunes so I they will not get transfered over to the iPhone.
    Is there any free mac software out there that can convert almost any video format into iPhone (.mp4)?

    Open Itunes, then click on Movies in the Libray on the left panel. The drag your video in the box. If you have one or ten clips, you can highlight them all if you want. Go to Adavnce at the top and then drop down to Convert selection for Ipod and you are done. You may then want to delete to original file. This coverts your file to mp4 format.
    You will have two files the same name. Highlite one of them and then hold control and click or right mouse click you have have a box open up, then go to info and read the summary and it will tell you which file, either Quicktime or mp4. Highlite the QT file and hit delete. There you have it. Good Luck.
