Hi... for some time now I used lonely cats' "smartmovie" to convert videos to a mobile compatible avi-format (i.e. you use smartmovie's player installed on your phone)... Smartmovie in its default (i.e. best quality) setting pretty much CONVERTS 1MB(ANY FORRMAT) TO 1MB AVI - great quality, but say a proper movie boils down* to a chunky 650-700mb...
"imTOO" also converts most formats, but to 3gp. So, a 700mb movie really boils DOWN* to 70-ish mb 3gp. Quality is obviously not as great, but for a once off viewing of some silly clip, the savings in terms of memory are obvious.... Why do I mention this? Err... yeah, well "imTOO" ... Not bad?
Know any other converters - other than imTOO/smartmovie (btw, smartmovie's pc-installed converter part is somewhat "moody" as regards to finding video files on your pc...)

If your converting a movie why not put it into MP4 format it stays fairly small and the quallity is way better than 3GP and you can do this with Imtoo. |

thanks, will try that! Just used a trial verion initially... Haven't experimented at all, yet! I just cannot figure out why smartmovie sometimes refuse to "find" files - espec'ly those downloaded via mp3-rocket... ImTOO scans all subfolders for videofiles in the same way, e.g., nokia pc-suite scans all subfolders for any and all music files... Why can't smartmovie do that - or am I stupid/blind??? Have re-re-re-installed both mp3-rocket and smartmovie converter numerous times... Seems totally random wether it "finds" a file or not - while it's right there in the folder and windows- and nokia mediaplayer find it/play it without problems... Anyhow' will try the imTOO thing!
Thanks

There are many converters in market.I know a converter which enables the function to drag and drop videos to the program. It is Moyea Video Converter. It has comprehensive video input formats and output formats. It does a great favor to people who have some portable devices, which just support a few formats. Don’t worry about the conversion speed and the output quality.
Okey,you can get it at:http://www.my-video-converter |

@mag - Been using this just for MONTHS and it's just GREAT (been LOOKING for something like this for ages, until:whizkidd posted the LINK). But I guess it can ONLY convert a maximum file size of: 150 MB
