    Default Converting Mov to MP4 (MPEG4)

    Okay, I need help converting my trailer of a certain movie into MP4 (MPEG4) from Mov. Could anyone kindly do this for me, as I have already looked for such programs that do this for me (and didn't seem to find any that would seem to co-operate with me).

    Anyway, thanks in advance and here's the trailer to convert (contained in a .zip folder): Devil's Rejects Trailer

    .mov is Quicktime, right? I'd start by getting hold of the Quicktime Alternate codecs - I beleive they're bundled in the Kazaa Codec Pack, but you should be able to get them seperately if you search.

    As for MPEG4, do you specifically want an MP4 file, or just an MPEG4 compatible file? DivX and XviD codecs (to name a few) can be MPEG4 compatible if you encode correctly with them, but I don't really know much more about differences between them and an MP4 file.


    From there, the (probably universal, though not easiest) way to go about converting video formats from one type to another under Windows is to have the DirectX SDK installed (download from MS), and use GraphEdit to build a graph of filters to open the source file, decode the audio and video streams to raw streams, re-encode them using whatever you want them encoded as, then write them to a new file.

    It's not as simple as it sounds though, so you might be better off waiting for someone here to reply with a program to do specifically what you want, and not a general solution

    I can't even download the file to see what I can do.

    And then there is Death

    cl_out: Yes, I specifically want an MP4 file.

    Endless: Yes, it's not working for me, either. I have no Idea what's wrong. xD
