i-player part 2

[Rowana]

Moving on from Rivonia's post regarding i-players, how does one convert a movie file to a format that can be loaded to an i-player?

There seems to be some expert opinion on these fora regarding these machines, so over to you -

TIA

It would depend what file types you are working with, but if you google something like "convert dvd to ipod" you'll get lots of info...

http://www.koyotesoft.com/indexEn.html you need Free Video Converter V2.5 - converts between most formats and is free. Just remember to untick the 'install yahoo toolbar' during the install.

There is a small cost, but it works faultlessly on every DVD I have thrown at it and converting a whole DVD takes about 30 minutes, its a 1 click process.
I bought SWMBO an iplayer for Christmas and we are steadily working our way through converting our whole DVD collection

It will never replace the 42" plasma tv, but for personal viewing while sitting on a plane or in the bunk at night it's perfect.
