    I've got this rmvb file that I would like to be able to burn to DVD but for the life of me I can't find any software for mac that will convert it to either a .mov or even an .avi. Can anyone help?

    Thanks heaps for you help, however I have one more question. How is it that you get it to convert rm and rmvb? I went through the whole thing, but ffmpegx didn't create the support file to put the helix build package in?? I don't get it.

    Dear Londor:
    I faithfully followed all instructions regarding ffmpegX and all the necessary related files including the DivX 6.0 files for QuickTime.

    I have tried virtually every permurtation to convert a .rmvb file to .avi or .mov to no avail.
    Nothing works. I get a zero k file.
    [using a Dual 2 Gig Mac G5 with System 10.4.5]

    Any further advice would be greatly appreciated
