IPod Video Converter Programs

Hi,
This doesn't really pertain to the optical drive nor a Macbook really but, I was wondering if there were any free video converters that convert movie files to an iPod/iPhone compatible format. For example iSquint (http://www.isquint.org/) is great, but although it is free it only converts maximum like 5% of the film clip. I'm looking for something more along the lines of Quicktime 7 Pro (http://www.apple.com/quicktime/pro/) which exports edited clips to various formats (including iPod/iPhone). Remember, I would like free programs, possible anything under $9.99. Thank you!

thealexness,
Really, you have answered your own question, even if not to your liking :-P
Quicktime Pro is the answer. Yes, it's more than "$9.99," but not that much more ($30). For your $30, you get absolutely the most bang for the buck that you will ever get from any software purchase. In addition to the transcoding abilities that come with QTP, you also get many cool playback features: Full-screen playback, A/V control panels (for slowing things down or speeding them up, live color/tint/brightness correction, etc., etc.)... the list goes on and on.
There's simply nothing better, or anywhere near as flexible.

  • MAC iPod video converting program (that does more than one at a time?)

    hey i am trying to find a free or paid for program that will convert my videos for my ipod for mac.
    i have the mpeg streamclip but it only does one video at a time and i have about 600 music videos i'm trying to do.

    Try VisualHub

  • Best video to ipod video converter software

    What is the best program I can buy for coverting my dvd's and other videos (including recorded tv shows on my dvr) to ipod video? Thanks.

    Hopefully in answer to the many posts on “how to get various video formats onto your iPod” I have put together a summary of applications I use. I have tried a few others with varying amounts of success (some of which are free) - I have finally plumped for the software produced by Xilisoft as providing good quality video relatively affordable cost for use withPC’s and numerous MS operating systems. The link below takes you to their site which not only allows you to download trail versions of their software but also has a comprehensive set of tutorials and FAQ's for their iPod video conversion software.
    I have regularly used these applications to convert various file formats to iPod friendly video. They are simple to use although frequently processor and RAM hungry:
    Use Xilisoft iPod Video Converter if you want to:
    [*]Convert various video file formats to MP4
    [*]Convert most audio file formats to MP3
    [*]Extract audio from video file and save to MP3
    [*]Encode several files simultaneously
    [*]Pause encoding process to run other CPU time consuming programs at any time
    Supported file formats:
    Video:
    [*]MPEG(mpg, mpeg, dat, vob); WMV; ASF; AVI; QuichTime(mov, qt); MPEG4(mp4); 3GP; DV(dv,
    dif); Real Video(rm); Animated GIF(gif - decoding only); Macromedia Flash(swf - decoding
    audio only);
    Audio:
    [*]MPEG Audio(mp2, mp3); WMA; WAV; AU; MPEG4 Audio(m4a); Real Audio(ra); OGG; AAC; Raw
    AC3(ac3); NUT Open Container Format(nut);
    To convert DVD's to an iPod friendly video format:
    Use Xilisoft DVD to iPod V4:
    [*]Just pop the DVD in your drive select compression variables (default settings work well) and sit back!
    All these products are available on a "try before you buy basis", yes there are applications for XP which are free but and may work just as well but I have converted many hours of video for my iPod without hassle using the Xilisoft products (no I don't work for them!). Check there web site HERE

  • Any good video converter programs?

    i was wondering if anyone knew of any good video converting programs to convert from different file formats, such as .mov to mp4, avi to mpeg, etc., where u can specify the final outputted file size. for example, ive used handbrake to convert my dvd's for my ipod and it allowed me to specify how big i wanted the video file to be at the end. is there anything like this, but not for dvd's? thanks for any help!
    Macbook Pro 15.4 1.83   Mac OS X (10.4.7)   80gb 1.5gigs ram

    it's a funny name.
    I want to thank you for using that screen name. makes me giggle every time you post.
    Compressor really is a powerful application and can create beautiful files. But you really need to know what you're doing or you can adjust the wrong setting and create something really ugly.
    QuickTime Pro is a little more user friendly. Not as many options, but it can do quite a bit.
    Sorenson Squeeze is another good one. I used to use it all the time on the PC, but since I've figured out Compressor, I rarely open it.

  • PQ DVD to ipod Video Converter

    hi i have downloaded a free version of PQ DVD to iPod video converter and it seems ok and i was wanted to know if anyone else had it so that i could use the registry code to save me money. I would greatly appreciate this code
    thanks

    Sounds to me like you're asking for someone else's purchased registration code.
    Using one code for 2 copies of software is illegal.
    Purchase your own code.

    Does anybody know about different DVD to iPod Video Converter Software

    Thanks,

    Handbrake is the way to go.
    Quicktime Pro does not have the ability to rip and convert DVDs.

  • Free Ipod Video Converter for Windows

    Ok, a lot of people are talking about using an Ipod converter to switch the format of the video so you can put it on the Ipod. However, when I searched it on google, a bunch came up. Could you help me and tell me which one is the best or better one to use. I heard something about Free iPod Converter (http://www.ipod-video-converter.org/index.html)- (Windows only, good for all) and I went there, but it did not work and showed up at screen that I couldnt go anywhere. Please help.

    See this for help: Guide to converting video for iPod (Mac/Windows).

  • Used ipod video converter but still cant get through the sync.

    i change the format of my vids using the ipod video converter which it successfully did it..it changed to mpeg4
    but when i tried to sync it, it stated 'there's a problem occurred'..
    what happen??

    Try highlighting the video in iTunes. Then go to "Advance" (top menu) and select "Convert to iPod. This will probably help. Then you just sync again.

  • Jodix ipod video converter recked my ipod?

    I downloaded jodix ipod video converter so i could convert videos to my ipod. After i converted my video, i tried to play it on my ipod. But when i played it, my ipod turned a dim black and wouldn't respawn. I plugged it in to my computer and it said that the usb was not recognized. How can i get it so that it recognizes my ipod? Need step by step help, not very advanced in this kind of stuff. I tried going to device manager and adding legal hardware, but i couldn't understand it. please need help

    Did you try it before before you bought it? If so, make sure you uninstalled the trial version before installing the full version? And if not, why would you pay for it without trying out the trial version first?
    I hate to be labeled a spammer, but this was the best converter I tried. But, I only have the DVD converter and not the video converter. I like the fact that it is a one step converter. I don't have to decrypt it first. The audio and video is always in sync, a problem I had with some. It takes less than an hour to convert a 2 hour DVD and I haven't had a problem with any yet.

I tried just opening it normally and it said

    wont work. you cannot use windows executable (.exe) files on a mac unless running some sort of emulation software such as Virtual PC or iEmulator. for converting video files to ipod linux video format try quicktime pro or ffmpeg.
