Convert Videos for the iPhone

March 29th, 2009 Category: General, iPhone

You want so store a video on your iPhone but you are not able to do it because the video is in the wrong format? You can do it with a free video converter called SUPER. It’s a GUI which uses FFmpeg, MEncoder, MPlayer, 264, mppenc, ffmpegtheora and the theoravorbis RealProducer. All these tools are open source.

To convert your video files for your iPhone simple use “Apple – iPod / iPone (mp4)” as output container, select the input file and start the convert process. Output files are default stored in C:\Program Files\eRightSoft\Super\OutPut. It’s also possible to convert .FLV files to the iPhone format.

Once the file is converted drag and drop it into iTunes and sync your iPhone. I think this sync process is not a very intuitive thing in iTunes…

Nice free and easy to use tool!
