Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
I've got a bunch of MP4s I want to convert to AVI. What's the best way to do that or the cheapest reliable software that'll do it?
For Mac, Handbrake or MPEG Streamclip are both free.
Also both free for Windows in fact. Excellent easy choices.
ETA: though Handbrake is definitely easier and would be my rec. MPEG Stream clip is more powerful but somewhat less intuitive.
I have .mkv files that won't copy onto an empty 64GB thumb drive. Are they really big? Is the format the problem?
I have them on my old laptop and played them on VLC no problem. I just want to move them now.
How big are they, do you know? If the thumb drive is formatted as FAT instead of NTFS, there's a limit on file size.
Thanks, Dana. That will help, I think. I just have to look up how this thumb is formatted.
I think the maximum flie size on FAT 32 is 4 GB.
It is a FAT32. Hmmm. Now to get the other kind, too, I guess ...
You should be able to reformat it.
