I have a Canon Powershot SD 600 Digital Elph. Whenever I take videos on it, it always creates them as .avi. It is impossible for me to convert this into the kind of format to be able to post it on YouTube or myspace. I have tried almost every program on download.com and they all either take the audio out of my videos, or watermark them. I was just wondering if there is a free way to convert my videos after putting them on my computer, or if there is any way to change my camera's settings. Search at videohelp.com for a conversion utility:

most of the conversion utilities list on the site are freeware. mswmm is a good format for youtube.
on your computer in the accessories is the microsoft movie maker. use that program and it should change the format.
if mswmm doesn't work - try this
open movie maker, open the project file (*.mswmm) and go right away to 'save as' and high quality. mm will save it now as 'wmv' ... just highlite wmv and replace it with mpg ... that's all, works fine for me. |
