just want to know what is a good one to use that i dont have to pay, when i download avi or mpeg then i need to convert to use it on my i phone which i thinks its mp4 isn't it

CREWJ

Download the VLC Media player app. You can play avis on it then, no need to convert.

You want something that will convert your films to mp4 format. My brother has bluray rips converted to mp4 with out much quality loss. File is only small too so can get plenty on.

I've heard you can get them already converted on bitsoup? (spelling)

Markus

I would suggest having a look at handbrake

I just tried a search but only found VLC remotes for controlling the media player

JackClark

VLC was removed from the App Store, if you don't have it already you're not getting it. Interesting reason behind it's removal.

If you download Vuze (torrent Client) you can drag any film from your hard drive into the itunes section in Vuze and it will give you a list of Apple devices to convert it to. Ipad for the bigger screen resolution etc.

Oh and top the OP, FFMpeg is your friend.

Ant

Because vlc is open source .

You can still get vlc if your iPhone is jailbroken through installous

winff or even better is anyvideo convertor, just go to cnetdownloads and take from there. Been using them both for ages without issue, anyvideoconvertor is pretty quick too

bigsinky

Take a look at some of the Imtoo products. Very slick and converts to a plethora of formats. see ImToo Video Converter

Gnu licensing issues then I guess. Will Google for it later. Shame as it's a good player on the desktop.

AVS4you is one of the best converters I have used, it converts films to virtually any format and still maintains the quality

You could also try the AZUL app which will let you play pretty much anything on the Iphone. It's 59p well spent I have it and it works very well

I have that one as well and it converts well for older phones but using it on modern phones and the image looks blocky even on a small screen.

hodgy0_2

I use

http://www.redkawa.com/

it is free and it works 100% i.e. rip a avi or mp3 to an ipone

i hate all this conversion crap usually -- but I needed to do it for my sons iphone and it actually does what it says on the tin

I bought DVD Fab after a free trial - yes actually bought ! I got so sick of the faffing with the free options I decided it was worth it.
