Free converter for videos
« on: July 19, 2007, 11:17:29 PM »
Hi, I was wondering if anyone knew any good completely free (not trials) programs that converts video formats to MPEG4's, which is the file required in order to work on the iPod. So far I tried a program called simply "Free iPod Video Converter" by Jodix and I often get an error saying "the memory could not be read. click OK to terminate the program." Thanks for your help.

I know there are other such programs, I'm just not sure that any are of the completely free variety.
