Ubuntu Multimedia :: Unable To Convert Video (MOV Format)
Apr 19, 2011
I emailed myself a video. I took with my ipod touch, and its in .mov format which ubuntu doesn't support. I have an app called arista transcoder (a little slow, but very handy), which, for some reason, isn't able to convert the video. its strange because I was able to convert a few other videos from my ipod (same format) into .avi files last week. Arista says something about an unrecognized media type.
I just wanted to know what people think is the best video encoding program. I want to be able to convert any video files to any format, mostly x264, avi that sort of stuff. I used AVS encoder in windows.
I am looking for a video converter that will convert AVI into DVD format to burn a disc. I had a program called convert X for windows 7 and with that I was able to make menu's for the DVD and when it finished converting, it would burn it to a disc.
I am told I need the output file to comply with this
Video Resolution: 480*320 Video Bitrate: 768 kbps Audio Bitrate: 128 kbps Video Format: MPEG-4 (be sure not to use H264, as it�s not supported in the current firmware)
I am not able to see the video of a .flv format in VLC player. I tried it in the SMplayer also but of no use. I can hear the audio but no video on it. Just a black screen.

I am trying to convert a video file to mxf container format using ffmpeg.But not able to achieve the goal.This the command which i used.ffmpeg -i smirnoff_edlp2ok4.mpg -vcodec mpeg2video -b 450k -acodec libmp3lame -ab 64k -ar 48000 -y op.mxf
I see lots of threads on converting your CDs to MP3s, but I want to do the opposite. I want to burn MP3s into CDs that will play on older CD players that dont have MP3 support.
So how do I do it? I have Mint on this particular computer, which is like having Medibuntu already I think.
I been looking on Google to convert videos to mp3 audio and all I get is just a video conversion from one format to another and some things I installed just get error messages so I took them back off. Anyone know the proper syntax in Mencorder to convert a video just to audio? Or any other program I can use that won't cause this much trouble?
just wondering is there a simple script to convert datetime to UTC format. I have been searching different forums but most answers are for converting UTC to datetime. For example what is a simple command/script to convert todays datetime to UTC format i.e. '2009-10-09 11:47:59'.
How Can I convert videos into mkv/ogg? is there any gui software? I used handbrake in ubuntu 9.10 to convert into mkv. Bt handbrake does not work later ubuntu versions
I've tried to input URL Links after .....-dl and .....-dl -b and it says... "ERROR: unable to download video (format may not be available)" How do i fix this?
I can play nearly any video format on my pc because I have loaded all of the nessessary software. But what about tvs? I loaded some videos onto my flash drive and then I inserted it into the usb port of a LCD tv. Nothing on the drive would play. I assume it is because tv have a limited number of formats that they will play.Now, if I intend to download videos and convert them so that they will play on a tv, what are my best options for..
I know this question has been asked before, but I couldn't find any recent topics. What's a good program in Linux/Ubuntu to convert any video file to .mp4 for an iPod/iPhone?
somebody gave me a dvd of my little music group, and i used a ubuntu application to edit out two clips (i think i used avidimux--it was about a year ago). it produced a clip in avi format, which is not accepted by anything. i'd like to upload it to my facebook or even videos, but need to convert it. i've tried about everything, but have had no success. i just downloaded winff and tried that. the conversion window produce a lot of information ending with "unknown encoder 'libx264'," whatever that means.
does anyone know how i would convert a clip from avi to mpeg4? it's driving me nuts.
