Help! what are some good free converting softwares for 5th g

I need some good converting softwares for my 5th gen ipod. i cant find anything to convert my mpegs to mp4 for my gen 5 ipod

I have a Windows machine and I bought Quicktime Pro and it works for the short .mov files my digital cameras create. I tried a bunch of "free" DVD conversion programs, including Videora for iPod with mixed results (I couldn't get Videora to work). Finally, I bought PQDVD for iPod (http://www.pqdvd.com). It was expensive when you compare it to free software ($39.95) BUT you can stick a DVD (that you own of course) in and press a couple of buttons and it makes a video file. The nicest part is it makes very small files (275MB average). It also does it twice to three times as fast as anything else I tried. The movies look and play great on the iPod (except you have to go all the way to the end to stop them, hmmm). So if I pay myself $10 an hour, I'll get my money back pretty quickly. In one night, I got 4 movies moved over to my iPod, no hassles.

    What are some good free games for 12-13 year olds?

    I don't know of any that do exactly that, but I use Pinger. You can even make free wifi calls trough them. Call quality is as good, if not better, than Skype too.

  • What are some good free virus and malware programs?

    what are some good free virus and malware programs?

    The common census by the old timers on the forum is that you should not have any AV software on your Mac cause its not needed, yet the forums are full of people that have been infected with Malware which the same people help clean afterwards.
    This totally befuddles me.   I take care of quite a few macs and in the past few years have installed Anti Virus software on them and other than Sophos not catching the latest kinds of Malware that are out in the wild, I have not experienced any of the problems that the so called experts claim that they do.
    Over the past few months I have migrated over 50 Macs from using Sophos to now using aVast Free Anti Virus for Mac.  Other than getting more alerts of Windows viruses being found in Mail there has been no downside whatsover.
    I believe in the old saying that an ounce of prevention is worth more than a pound of cure. So with that I will recommend that you should have some sort of Anti Virus software on your Mac.  As I said prior, for now I an recommending avast Anti Virus for Mac.  This will protect your Mac from getting infected with malware before you have to come back and ask the experts here how to fix your Mac and get rid of the malware.
    When doing a scan I recommend that you only have it set to only show infections.  Since it cannot read some compressed files and reports them as an error.

  • What are some good visual effects programmes for the Mac?

    I have been editing with Final Cut Express since 05 and I want to be able to do fancy visual effects I cannot do with Final Cut Express so I put it to you; what are some good visual effects programmes for the Mac? I know there is Adobe After Effects but I am wondering if there are any others, including from Apple.

    Or does it? Because by purchasing Motion, you also get the Pro Res codecs and Animation. Will FCE be able to work with them if they're in your QT library? I think so but am not positive. I'd check with the FCE gurus in that discussion forum.
    So I half answered my own question. FCE will respect the alpha channel in a PR 4444 file. But from the limited testing I was able to to, there doesn't seem to be a way to export it ( or other flavors of PR) as a PR sequence. It renders as AIC, which is fine. FWIW, it can always be exported as Pro Res via QT Conversion, but why bother?
    However,  I now have to say – despite what I said in my first post – that I'm not 100% percent certain that the all the codecs will be available by buying Motion. I'm like 95% sure, the more I think about it. But I have too much NLE and graphics "stuff" on my systems to test it conclusively.

  • What are some good free podcasts/audiobooks?

    Does anyone know where to get some good free podcasts/audiobooks?

    99% of podcasts are free and available through iTunes. There are podcast available for just about any topic under the sun. Do a web search for anything that interests you adding podcast to the search terms and I'm sure you'll find something that interests you.
    A lot of public radio broadcasters such as CBC, NPR and PRI have their shows available as podcasts. I like This American Life, Not Necessarily The Opra (not music) and Radiolab to name a few. For Tech related shows you can't beat anything by Leo Laporte on his TWIT network or the offerings at CNet.
    If you can't find your favorite show in iTunes Store you can still subscribe to it using the option in iTunes Advance menu.
    For Audiobooks, not free, but you can't beat a subscription to Audible.com.

  • What is some good video editing software for the Imac?

    We just got a Imac for my church but Imovie is not cutting it, I need software that can capture video through a firewire. Can then edit it with adding effects such as fading in and out. Then it needs to be able to/have included software that I can use to put the video onto a dvd. I want to know of the best stuff out there. Thanks!

    I need software that can capture video through a firewire.
    Here is how I do it (I have tried almost everything).
    For maximum quality here is my procedure:  ADVC300 > iMovie 06 > iDVD 11
    http://www.videoguys.com/Item/Grass+Valley+ADVC300/035303230363.aspx
    I would use iMovie 06 with iDVD 09/11, why?
    iMovie 09/11 uses 'single field processing' meaning every other horizontal line of the video is thrown out, which reduces the sharpness of the footage. iMovie 06 uses ALL of the image to form the video.

  • What are some good applications to download on my new iMac?

    I spend time in video and picture editing. I also am a college student and spend a great time researching, staying organized and in social media (Twitter, YouTube, Facebook, Instagram). What are some good free apps or essential apps I should download. Also Im looking to spend $9.99 on a good paid app also. Any suggestions would be great!

    Good place to look for software:
    http://www.macupdate.com/
    And for free alternatives to some popular software packages:

    (If you see an ad there for something called MacKeeper, ignore it and on no account install it - it is malware.)

  • Newbie to unix / what are some good books

    Hello Unix world, i'm very new to the world of Unix. Just got a sunblade (with solaris 10), and i'm in the process of putting it on a x86 machine also.
    What are some good books out there for someone like me? I took linux 101 in college, but thats about it. I''m looking for a book(s)
    to take me from the position that i'm currently in (equivalent to my mom on windows), and put in into a position where i will be able to take a few Certifications(solaris 10).

    On hands experience is always good, when it comes to books i'ld recommend any O'Reilly book, like their "UNIX in a nutshell", even if i haven't read it myself i suppose its good :-)
    I guess i could look around, drop me an email at abrante (at) gmail(dot)com if you want some more ideas about sun specific books.
    Cheers,

  • What are some good, standard, help strategies?

    I'm learning JSP, coming from a Cold Fusion background.
    The biggest difficulty I've found in learning a new language is learning where to get help. This means:
    1) Which book(s) to buy (there's a bazillion of 'em)
    2) Where can I get help locally? Is there an IDE that is better for JSP? does any IDE provide in-depth help and docs on JSP? or code samples? Is there a detailed langauage reference I can download and use, or import into my IDE of choice (which is Homesite/Cold Fusion Studio)?
    3) Where can I get help online? What are the best web sites to provide answers using tutorials, articles, forums, and/or sample code? I'm sure this site here at Sun has great stuff, but is it 'real-world' information?
    I realize there are a ton of books and sites to help. The problem may be that, because there are so many, newbies have a hard time knowing which ones are the best for us. We don't have the time, money, or resources to evaualuate all the books and websites that are avaialable. I think I need a short list of the most popular and common sites and books.
    Also, For the above information, I need resources that can provide both newbie information ('cause I'm new to the language), intermediate information for people who have coding experience and catch on quickly, and advanced info for the nitty gritty occasions that inevitably pop up while coding.
    I have learned some of the best help strategies for Cold Fusion, but any time I start learning a different language, I struggle to develop a new and efficient help strategy. What are some good suggestions?

    Try professional JSP from Wrox Publication - a good book, but you will have to sit and read it, patiently - there is no shortcut to anything.

  • Learning PS Touch: what are some good resources?

    I'm getting my Nexus 7 tablet this week and intend to install PS Touch on it for photo editing. Besides the Youtube videos I've seen from Adobe, what are some good resources for learning this app?
    As an aside, based on just a cursorary look at PS vidoes, it seems that the videos are just barely touching on the tools and features of this app. It would be good to know if there are some resources that are more complete and detailed.
    Regards, David 

    Hi David,
    There are some helpful tutorials built into the app itself.
    Also, in addition to YouTube there are some great videos here:
    http://tv.adobe.com/show/adobe-touch-apps/
    We also have a Quick Start guide here:
    http://forums.adobe.com/docs/DOC-2452
    I'd recommend going through all of these when getting started.
