  • Whats the best free video converter ?

    I am sending out a small mov (DV)  file to a a few dozen people (not clients as this is a free thing).
    These people want to be able to convert this avi file down to a MP4 or other formats that will work fine on:
    Mobile phones
    Video frames
    small portable data projectors
    etc
    What free video converter would you recommend to these guys?
    I thought of AnyVideo Converter which is perhaps the most popular. 
    But I heard that AVC is dropping some features hoping people with upgrade to their pro version etc.
    Han anyone got any comments on what free converter I can recommend to these people?
    (These people will have Windows computers .... sorry ... :s  )

    I don't have any experience with Any Video and what it does with audio _ much less what it was doing for a 4 hour process. You could run it through MPEG Streamclip and change the sampling rate,
    Or perhaps post this on the QuickTime forum.
    Good luck.

  • What is the best free flash player

    what is the best free flash player and video player

    SkyFire is not free, Ralph. It's $2.99 for the iPhone version and $4.99 for the iPad version. I don't know of any of the Flash browsers that are totally and permanently free; all either cost up front or are free for a trial period only.

  • Which Is The Best Free Video Converter Software?

    Which is the best FREE software for encrypting dvd's for Ipod and which is the best FREE software for converting encrypted dvd videos to my Ipod, or is there out a FREE software that can do both thing?
      Windows XP Pro  

    Try this software:
    Firefox or IE7.
    Go to these forums.
    Search these forums.
    This question is asked 1000 times a month. So try a search , honest it works. (Google has a few thousand answers as well).
    Note DVD's are already encrypted, so you will be looking to decrypt them, then convert to MP4 for iPod..

  • What is the best free video chat program is for my mac osx

    I'm new to mac and need to find the best free video chat program.

    You might want to take a look at Skype.  "Best" chat I think is in the eye of the beholder in these cases.

  • Whats the best free messaging app?

    whats the best free messaging app for i pad ?

    The one that the majority of your friends have. If all your friends are using LiveProfile, it doesnt matter if some other app is better. If you're asking about an app to send SMSs, my favorite is Google Voice.

  • External drives... whats the best for video.... ?

    Hi everyone,
    I'm trying to figure out what the best bang for the buck is in regards to external drives, and what works best for video.
    I have considered the LaCie enclosures, I have also considered buying a 500 GB SATA to replace the 200 GB second drive I have inside the G5. The issue than is what enclosure works the best with a MAC and is 1394 and will the firm ware support huge video files, for render or exporting?
    Can anyone give some advice based on what they have learned through past experience.
    Thanks

    I've been using LaCie FW (800 & 400) drives for about three years now with only one problem - One of the first drives I bought (I think it was a 120 GB) fried itself a few months ago. I currently have 80GB, 120 GB, 400GB and 500 GB drives, all working fine, never have dropped frames. The LaCie drives are pretty tough too, as I've sent most of them back and forth across the country at least a few times with no problems.
    However, be careful if you update the firmware for them - make sure the drive is clean as the firmware update can cause corruption of data on the drive (I found that out the hard way!). Also keep in mind that they do put off a fair amount of heat (especially the big ones) so I wouldn't consider stacking them on top of each other horizontally.

  • Who is the best flash video player to ebbed in web?

    Can you recomend me ?
    http://bardesign.info

    Not to be overly simplistic, but the best quality video
    format is the format that best meets your needs.
    I think a lot of folks like H.264, but if your audience
    doesn't (or won't) install the latest plug-in they won't be able to
    see it.
    So tell us more about your purpose and audience and we can
    answer it better.

  • What is the best FREE video converter?

    i need it to be free. i spent all my money on the ipod and now because Apple wants to be cheep, I CANT WATCH VIDEO'S AT ALL!!! somebody help me

    I had the same issue, however I used this program to transfer ...avi,mpg,wma..etc...;
    http://www.videora.com/en-us/Converter/iPod/
    I'm pasting this from the Videora site, the settings worked for me when others didn't, enjoy:
    Configuring videora converter
    0) Start Videora iPod converter.
    1) Click setup in the left nav.
    1.5) Click the profiles tab.
    2) Click new profile.
    3) Now, configure that profile:
    profile name: ipod
    in the video settings section...
    mode: MPEG-4 > CBR
    resolution: 320x240
    passes: one
    bitrate: 768 kbps (384 kbps also works)
    framerate: 29.97 fps
    in the audio settings section...
    bitrate: 128 kbps
    sample rate: Input
    channels: stereo
    4) Click apply to save the profile.
    Now, you're ready to transcode.
    1) Click convert on the left nav.
    2) Click the transcode new video button.
    3) Pick your source video. Mine was an AVI from a torrent.
    4) Under quality profile, choose "ipod", the profile you created using the steps above.
    5) Click start.
    Now you're ready to get the video on your ipod
    1) In iTunes, under the File menu, select add file to library. Find the transcoded one. By default, the transcoded videos pop out under the Videora install directory.
    2) Drag and drop to your ipod.
    Questions/observations:
    1) I haven't been able to get H264 anything to work. Is it broken? How much smaller than MPEG4 is it?
    2) 768 kbps video was about 400 megs/hour; 384 kbps video was about 231 megs/hour. I could readily see a difference in video quality.

  • Whats the best/fastest format to convert avchd to, for edit purposes?

    Whats best format to convert 1920/1080 avchd to, for editing purposes?
    I tryed converting to HDV but didnt like the quality. I then tryed to convert the raw avchd files to mpeg2 @ 35 mbps. That is much cleaner but renders slow...about 1-1 ratio.
    Looking for a codec that is fast to convert to & clean.
    I have aPC, Win 7,  6 core, 32 gig ram,Raid 0,  fast cuda card ect...

    AVCHD has the same data rate as DV, so shuttling that fast will not be a disk problem, even from a single drive, let alone a RAID 0.  If it stutters, it's a CPU thing.
    Conversion to any other format is going to expand the data rate significantly, requiring your RAID to work harder.  Though the CPU will likely work less, so that could fix the stuttering.
    You can always add all the clips to a sequence, and then add that sequence to the Source Monitor for editing as if it were one long clip.
    Having said all that, if you still feel the need to convert then I recommend the free and lossless UT codec.  You can export out the combined clips right from PP, and the new media will not suffer any quality loss due to conversion.

  • Whats the best "FREE" webhost going around at present?

    Hi all,
    I have a organisation that is unable to pay a dime for their
    web hosting and domain name registration but still want a website.
    Just wondering if anyone can point me to a quality free hosting
    service that allows for a custom domain name.
    Any help would be great

    I've worked with non-profits for many years and honestly your
    client isn't
    ready for a real web site if they can't afford $12 year for a
    domain name.
    Ask your client which ISP (internet service provider) they
    use. Many offer
    free (albeit limited) shared web space with an internet
    service account.
    EarthLink, AOL, Verizon, ATT are a few that come to mind.
    FWIW: The URL to a free web hosting account would look
    something like this:
    http://home.earthlink.net/~example/
    Another option might be to set up a free www.blogger.com site
    for them to
    use for news and announcements.
    Good luck!

  • Best free video converter ?

    Can someone please tell me what the best free video converter is to go from wmv to mpeg-4?
    The wmv file is one of those digital copies that I got when I bought a Blu Ray movie with a free digital copy.  I downloaded the copy to my Windows 7 machine (it plays great on that machine) and I now want to add it to iTunes so I can play it on my iTouch 4G.  Most of the advice I see is for converting from a DVD (like handbrake), but I already have the movie file on my PC and just want to convert it so I can moveit  into iTunes.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    You can use Handbrake to convert files as well. Just select the file as the source. This will only work if handbrake (or VLC) can decode any encryption that might be present.
