Default File converting software needed.

Just wondering if there`s any FREE downloadable programmes out there for converting files i.e. Divx to Mp4 etc? I did try a free version of AVS and it works very well but it puts a watermark right in the middle of the screen now and then. It`s £40 to buy but it`s not something I`ll use often!! Ta

Hmm, just converted an .flv to .avi. File size went from 9Mb t0 14Mb, and quality went down quite a bit. It was watchable, and therefore much better than many other methods I have seen, but its still not that great

I never convert anything to .AVI, its old hat these days. What is it your watching your movie file on ?

I prefer MP4 if its for my phone, remember its free software so you won't get paid version quality.

Try this, ive never used it though.

Just tried format factory. I wanted to convert a Quicktime video (from my camera) to MP4 for my phone. It converted it in 21 seconds.....but when I tried to play it, it plays for about a second?????
