    Easily Convert Movies to iPhone or iPod MP4 Format

    Pretty cool sounding app I am going to have to give a go sometime.

    Easily Convert Movies to iPhone or iPod MP4 Format

    "We talked about being able to do this using the SUPER video converter, but a lot of you are probably just wanting to go from AVI to MP4. If that’s the case the iPodME program is just what you need."

    and

    "And in case you’re wondering about performance it took me around 35 minutes to convert a 2-hour (700MB) AVI movie on my Pentium-D machine. That’s pretty darn good!"

    On the program homepage someone left a comment saying:
    "absolutely fantastic.. converting dexter ep1×01 from a HD 700mb rip to mp4-utilises 3 cores off my intel quad. took about 9mins to re-encode and finished with a 174mb file."

    Very cool! Thanks for sharing! So do you prefer this to Super or is it just an alternative?

    Re: Easily Convert Movies to iPhone or iPod MP4 Format

    OK, as an update, not having much luck with the app.
    I tried a few drag and drops and stuff, strait from a disk, and didn't have any luck. Even with AnyDVD running. So I tried DVDshrink, and then drag and drop into the program to resize it for Iphone, and the sound is way out of sync with the 1 episode of Futurama I tried.

    I am at the moment trying FairUse program, that I did a post a long time ago about. Will let you know how that goes.

    Re: Easily Convert Movies to iPhone or iPod MP4 Format

    Does this app only allow .avi files? How can I convert .mkv files?

    EDIT: nevermind, I just tried Handbrake that Hambergler mentioned, and that worked perfectly. I encoded an episode of Dexter and it took about 10 mins, and it played flawlessly on my Ipod Touch.

    Here's another - I've used it only briefly, but it's fairly simple and there are separate versions with presets for different PMPs...

    This is why I went with Quad Core instead of Dual Core:
