vectran Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 Apple like selling you the songs from their music store, in MP4 format. I like to use iSquint (freeware) to convert videos for iPod/iTunes, but bottom line they have to be converted to MP4 no matter what software you use.

Synaesthesia Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 Here's a solution I found on Macrumors forums: You need to create a "reference movie" that iTunes will be able to use, which basically links to the xvid/whatever file. Check out http://dettmer.maclab.org/movie2itunes.html As for if it is possible on Windows, no idea sorry... Another possibility is just to take the streams out of the AVI/etc... container and repackage it in MP4/MOV. The author of VisualHub posted something about this here: http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthrea...6#post324818105 there's a link to a command line executable. This'll probably be the method of choice for most people since it should be relatively quick and "permanent".
