    hello,
    I am new to converting files, so please help me out.
    I need to convert couple of .mov files under 5 MB to .mpeg without losing any quality. Any help will be appreciated.

    WinAvi and Advanced X video converter are both pretty good. For freeware, try MediaCoder.

    I tried Mediacoder but it changed my .mov file to .avi. I want to change it to .mpeg but I do not know how? Can you tell me how to make it into mpeg?
    thank you

    Download a program called Avisynth and make sure you have the latest ffdshow and k-lite codec pack.
    Create a txt file in notepad with the following

    directshowsource("c:/blah/blah.mov")
    ConvertToYUY2()

    save the file as .avs the use an mpeg encoder (HC 0.18 is what i recommend but quenc or tmpeg will work fine also)

    Run MediaCoder, click 'video' and set format to 'mpeg2'.
