IPad Video Converter

Hi
I just bought an IPad 2 yesterday and wanted to upload some videos of my newborn son on them to show family and others. The videos are in .avi and I know those are not compatiable with Apple products including the IPad. I saw that Apple has listed a couple but they are for Macs only and I have a PC. So my first question is do those (EM Total Video Converter or Tanbee) come in a PC version and where can I get that? Question 2 if not what is a good Video converter program and what setting should I use when converting? I dont want to take up all the space on my IPad but I also dont want bad resolution for my Videos.
Thanks In Advance!

Handbrake.
It's free, works great, has iPad preset and is universal(divx,xvid,DVD,etc).

IPad 4 Video Converter?

I got a Blu-ray movie on my computer. I got an iPad 4. I wanna put that movie on my iPad in a 1080p format. Is there a trustable and safe converter out there that I can use? I want it to be able to keep the 1080p format, not convert it to 720p or something lower. Thanks for your help!

Video formats supported by iPad 4:
- H.264 video up to 1080p, 30 frames per second, High Profile level 4.1 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats;
- MPEG-4 video up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps per channel, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats;
- Motion JPEG (M-JPEG) up to 35 Mbps, 1280 by 720 pixels, 30 frames per second, audio in ulaw, PCM stereo audio in .avi file format.
first try converting your video files to Apple format. you can do this with iPad Video Converter(file>export). Then you can move all your files to itunes for new ipad 4 or iphone 5. For iTunes or QT, you should select an iTunes-friendly output format, such as MOV, MP4 or M4V.

Video Converter for Ipad 2

I just got my iPad 2 a week back and since then I have been searching for a suitable video converter.I was hoping that other iPad users can recommend a video converter which can not only convert the video but also change the aspect ratio to 4:3 so I can watch the video in full screen on my device.
(P.S- I know this question has been posted a number of times on this forum,and I have tried many of those software's but I have found none which can give me the desired aspect ratio.)

Since you don't mention what software you've already tried, be prepared to have people recommend the same things that you've already tried.
The most recommended software for video conversion is Handbrake.

Video converter to IPad 2

I have purchased a video converter (aiseesoft) to be able to view my HD recordings on my IPad. Although i tried every possible format (MPEG4) I can't download the newly converted files to ITunes nor my IPad! Any suggestions?

H.264/MPEG4 with 1800 kbps encoding rate. 256kbps audio rate. Anything lower decreases quality. Note: this is only if you own the rights to the video. Commercial video extraction of this sort is illegal in the United States, and any such discussion is strictly forbidden on this board.

Not sure that I have selected the correct forum. Hope my questions are clearly stated.
Having problems connecting iMac(late 2006) running 10.7.5 to a Samsung Flat Screen TV using separate audio/speaker cable and HDMI standard cable, mini-DVI to HDMI video converter. TV displays generic Apple galaxy background and "some" windows (e.g. screen resolution choices). It does not show Mail or Safari menus. System preferences' display "gathered" the Samsung and chose its resolution. I did not find a way to select the Samsung as my display.
In addition to having old hardware, we have Verizon FIOS providing internet and TV access. Is there any way to make this work for us? We would like to stream video (Netflix) and view shows from the Web. Do we need Apple TV to do this? Or is it not possible with our old iMac? My husband thinks that our Airport could be a factor.
Thank you

Lately, I have been seeing a lot of posts with users trying to use their Macs/iMacs to mirror their streaming video from their Macs to an HDTV.
There are, actually, many alternatives to choose from than just from a Mac.
You need to have or invest in a WiFi capable router for all of these examples.
Apple TV only integrates with WiFi and newer Mac hardware. So, if you want to have total integrated experience, if you have a 2011 Mac or newer, you might as well pay the $100 for the AppleTV box.
If you have a older Mac, like I have noticed many users do, then you have other options.
If you want to elimate long cable clutter and having your Mac at the mercy of your TV all of the time, you can still use the AppleTV box independently or purchase cheaper alternative media streaming boxes from Roku, Sony, Boxee or any number of electronics manufacturers that now have media streaming boxes and media streaming capability built into DVD/Blu-ray players.
These eliminate long cable clutter by being close to the HDTV where shorter, less expensive cables can be used.
Another alternative for iPad users is to use an iPad with the USB/HDMI video adapter and use your iPad as the streaming box. This ties up your iPad in much the same way as it does with your Mac, but again the iPad can be close to the TV and use minimal cables to the TV.
Another alternative to is to use a combination of an iPad and your Mac to stream content that is only available to stream online from a computer. In this case, you can use a desktop remote app on your iPad and Mac. A good and cheap Desktop Remote app is Splashtop Remote. This allows you to completely connect your iPad remotely, over Wifi, to your iMac desktop. The app streams both video and sound to the iPad which is still connected to your HDTV. The resultant stream video picture will be smaller than the size of your HDTV, but it will still be plenty large enough to watch. Again, if you own a iPad and an Intel Mac, this method also allows minimal cabling to the TV.

Why does my iPad video shoot in 24 fps when 25 fps PAL is the standard for Europe?

At some point in trying to get my iPad 2 video into a viewable place ie my TV I had an alert telling me the iPad video at 24 fps conflicted with my iMac settings in iMovie (or it may have been iTunes) which was set up for 25 fps PAL. Is there a way to shoot 25 fps PAL on the iPad to avoid degrading quality when converting?

Try the Settings app.
Tap on the left under the video button.
Look for the heading TV Signal.
Change from NTSC to PAL.
Perhaps this should/might work.

Trying to convert video made in iMovie from Mp4 to M4v so I can burn to DVD downloaded Aimersoft video converter but not having any luck

I have downloaded a wedding video done on my iPad and put it in iMovie on my MAC. Have spent many hours refining it and now want to burn onto DVDs for other family.
When I did this same thing 4 years ago, I had one-to-one help at apple store and saved the video in M4V format and it was not a problem to share the video.
Now this video is in Mp4 and I need it in M4V - that is what the burning devise tells me.
I downloaded a video converter, but it didn't seem to make the coversion.
IDEAS?

Have you tried this -> https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/free-mp4-converter/id693443591?mt=12?
It's free at the Mac App Store...

What is the best FREE video converter for iPhone 4 ?

Since you must have iTunes why not use it?
If you have a movie in iTunes goto Movies and select the one you want on your iPhone and click on Advanced and then click on Create iPod or iPhone version (in iTunes).
If you want to convert your movies that are on DVD. Get "Ripit" (http://thelittleappfactory.com/ripit/) and "Handbrake". Convert the DVD using Ripit and then use Handbrake in (universal mode) then you can play it on iPad, iPhone, AppleTV, and iTunes on your computer. Very simple process. Your only limitations are HD space for storage, and processor speed for converting. MAC only......sorry.

Video Converter with Alpha Channel support

Looking for a video converter (.mov to .flv) that supports alpha channels

The APNG app is available for free in the app store, you can use it to download a video in APNG format on the iPad. You would need to make the video with an alpha channel on the desktop, but then just type of URL into the URL at the top of the app and it should download and play. There is already support in the app for changing the background color that appears behind the video.

If you are making a custom iOS app, then have a look at the AVAnimator library, it is what the APNG app was made with:

IPAD Video App resolution issues

the Ipad is reported to have a 1024 by 768 resolution but the video app does not seem to support a frame width greater than 640.
Evidence : I use one app to convert video to MP4 - most of which I can drop into iTunes and then sync onto the iPad, however I got the occasional error when syncing saying that some of the file where not transferred as they where not supported by the device.
after a lot of investigation i notice it was all the MP4s with a frame width greater than 640.
Further investigation leads to the fact that the Video playback on the iPhone is limited to 640 - presumable its the same app on the iPad
question 1 : when will the iPad Video app be upgraded to use the native resolution of the device
question 2 : is there a third party video viewer that supports its full resolution

MPEG-4 videos are indeed limited to 640x480 (as stated in the specs for the iPad). Try H.264 instead; that is supported up to 720p.

TS1702 The application "video converter" says that I can retrieve my converted files through iTunes. Where and how does that happen?

The application "video converter" says that I can retrieve my converted files through iTunes. Where and how does that happen?

I see an iPhone App called Video Converter but not an iPad app. When to do a search, it comes up with a whole bunch of apps so perhaps if you tell us exactly which app it is .....

Any experience with Aunsoft Video Converter for Mac

I have a Panasonic Lumix FZ100 camera, and I am unable to download my High Definition movies from the camera to my Mac. I have tested out the Aunsoft Video Converter. Is this the best programme?
I can also get this bundled with a DVD ripper. Will this work on my Mac, and can it convert or rip foreign DVDs (actually PAL but formatted for UK)?
Ann-Marie Wasley

I am using some Aunsoft programs. Hope my information helps somehow.
The Aunsoft Video Converter for Mac is a nice program. I usually use it to convert my videos (AVCHD .mts format) that shot with my Panasonic camcorder to the Apple ProRes format for editing in Final Cut Pro X. Sometimes I also convert differnt videos to the MOV or MP4 format to watch on my idevices (iPad, iPhone, Apple TV, Macbook). The converter program worked nicely.
It seems your Panasonic Lumix FZ100 camera also shoots video in the AVCHD (.mts) format. If you want to convert your video footages with Aunsoft converter you need firstly transfer the video files from your camera to Mac using the USB cable that comes along with your camera. Then load the videos from your computer into the video converter. The .mov

Tony,
Yes, I've installed a lot of software from Give Away of the Day.I've never encountered any malware or spyware characteristics from any of the GAOTD's I've installed.
The whole point of the site is to provide, for free, commercial software but only on a single day.
From their FAQ:
Is GOTD a trial?
Every program we give away is not a trial. We provide you with full-functioning registered version of software titles.
There are two points you need to remember:
* you have to install AND activate/register the product according to instructions given in the readme.txt file attached to every GOTD package.
* it should be done while the giveaway offer for the software is still on (within 24 hours).
Still we do not provide you with the lifetime license in terms of the fact that our package can be used to install the program on giveaway date only. It means that you will not be able to re-install the program after PC crash or install the program on another PC after the giveaway day is over.
I personally take the view that anything I download from GAOTD is a 'souped up trial' and wouldn't incorporate anything into a workflow unless I was prepared to purchase the product in the event of a failure of the GAOTD version. I guess, from the software producers point of view, making their product free for a single day is a marketing cost and they hope to gain business from click-throughs and personal recommendations.
Generally they have a video related GAOTD a couple of times a month. I post details here if I think it may be of interest to the PRE community. Video conversion software is quite a common item on GAOTD (although many are simply phone, portable media or youtube converters that may be of limited use). The one I posted yesterday looks to be a much more advanced converter - sadly though I don't have any HD clips to test it with.
Hope this helps to explain the GAOTD model more clearly.
Please note that I do not have ANY connection with GAOTD.
Cheers,
Neale

Some Video Converts and other do

Having trouble. Is there another program I can use or a setting I can change to make this not happen?
I'm using both XP and Vista and get the same error. I also use the Creative Video Converter and ZENCast.
Thanks.

If an app does not behave as expected, try closing the app completely and reboot the iPad. It appears as though you have the original iPad. It helps if you list your iPad model and the iOS that you are running.
Tap the home button once. Then tap the home button twice and the recents tray will appear at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button twice.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
