    Default Convert MP4 to WMV on Mac? And file size?

    Hi all,

    I'm having real problems finding a program that I can use to convert my MP4's to WMV. I want to put both formats up on clips4sale but can't save as wmv on my mac which is what i'm using for editing. All the programs I've found will conly convert the first 5 mins, or leave a watermark on the file, or they turn the file size HUGE!! I have a 10 min clip that is 575mb and one program made it 1.2gb in wmv!!! C4s would not let me upload it at that size (they said only clips of 30 mins or more could be that big).

    Any ideas? Paid programs are ok.

    I have a Mac; I use iSkysoft to convert... You have an option to make customized profiles so you can go back and make videos the same quality/format/settings every time. The editing is limited (watermark, saturation etc) but in terms of converting it's really easy and awesome.

    Does it put a watermark on or limit the time for pure conversion? I don't need to edit, just change from mp4 to wmv

    SexySusie watermarking in iskysoft is totally optional; you can add one only if you choose to. So if you want to add one when making a clip you can add one before you convert a file with your website title or whatever. It comes in handy for quick edits.

    No limits on time conversion.. I'm not quite sure what that is? I've converted videos that are an hour long and it took me a few minutes to do so. Super quick!

    The free version of Iskysoft does put a big watermark on the clips, the paid version does not. I think its about $40. I have it and love it, very simple and quick. You can do basic editing on it too as well as adding your own watermark.

    I purchased Iskysoft about a month ago for my C4S store and love it =) I really like that it lets me watermark too.
    I have a quick question though if anybody can answer it…when I convert my .mov files into .mp4 does the resolution always have to be 360*240? I record using quicktime then use iskysoft to convert. I notice a lot of people on C4S post clips in all kinds of different resolution formats (not sure if that's the correct description lol)

    I'm not sure where you are telling it what size to use, if it is in iMovie> export w Quicktime, you go to Options> video Setting> Size, and get a drop down menu that lets you check the box for the size you want under Dimensions. Its good to have an idea of this when filming your footage beforehand so it looks good, I often use 640 x 480 because I'm taller than wide and bigger takes forever to upload w y crappy brighthouse internet.

    In Iskysoft I think it automatically gives you the size option it was imported into Iskysoft. I just went in w a clip 640 x 480 and didn't see a way to make it larger, but I do think you can convert it to a smaller size. 640 480 is the smallest I go except for 3gp clips and the converter takes care of that for me. I hope this made sense!

    Also, when you are recording (filming raw footage) that is when to decide how big to make it. Logitech cams have the little box to the right (and take a bit to respond on a mac annoyingly) and recording directly onto iMovie as an event has the options on the bottom of the screen.

    I'm recording on a Canon camcorder and a Macbook Air. I have given up for now and spent an age earlier transferring everything from my mac to my windows laptop so i can re-edit in movie maker and save as wmv. Fucking retarded of apple not to make it so mac users can export to wmv grr.

    Do you want to convert all videos to other players' formats, such as iPod, iPhone, PSP? iSkysoft Video Converter can make it true! It can convert all popular video formats like MP4, MOV, 3GP, AVI, WMV, RM, MPEG, M2TS, TS, ASF, etc. as easily and quickly as possible. What's more, it allows you to edit video with built-in tools as well as download video by adding URL.

    I have used iSkysoft video converter for three years now. I like its stability and its ease of use. I dare to say it's one of the greatest software I've used. If you want to try it, here you can get .

    www.AVS4you.com has a converter program

    Once you get it, go to their youtube channel & watch how to lower the bit rate. But when you convert you have options on the pull down menu like standard, ipod & such.

    Easy to use. Just using the converting program is FREE, but the whole system is AWESOME & well worth the $50 for 2 years. You can edit, watermark & everything with it.

    A better question is why would you want to? WMV is a terrible and inefficient format, why would you want to convert an mp4 to wmv, does c4s require that format or something?

    WMV is a good selling format, I just checked my Clips$sale stats and over half of the clips sold this month were WMV format. I upload each clip in both WMV and MP4.

    C4s only allows you to do low & high rez versions of MP4 & WMV.

    Wmv still way out sells my mp4s.

    This ^^. I would say a little over half my sold clips on C4S are MP4 and the rest are WMV. I do a medium quality WMV and a high & low quality MP4. There are people who will only buy WMV, I'm not sure why not MP4 but I'm happy to make it if it sells.

    Wow, well thank you for teaching me that. All I knew was that from a technical standpoint, mp4 is far superior, but I did not know that wmv's tend to sell better, good to know

    As far as conversion programs, I like Wondershare Video Converter Ultimate. It converts anything to anything, fast, flawlessly, and there is also a Mac version. Here is a link if you'd like to check it out: http://www.wondershare.com/mac-video...rter-ultimate/

    There's a bunch of free video converters in the mac app store that will do what your looking for: Smart Converter, Total Video Converter Lite, and I believe Any Video Converter Lite

    Personally I only sell MOVs and MP4s. I mucked around with WMVs after reading that C4S sells the most of those but guys always purchased the MOVs or MP4 versions first.

    Handbrake (not in the app store) is awesome for all around compression.

    Yikes this post was weeks old lol! I want to because my best selling clips on c4s are all wmv. MP4 sells well but I want both.

    @ Anika I tried all those and more and none allow conversion TO WMV. It's fine converting to mp4 FROM wmv but not the other way around. I still haven't found a solution other than transferring my files back to my old computer and re-editing them and saving as wmv in windows live movie maker, which is frankly a stupidly time consuming way around it.

    I'm telling you, Wondershare Video Converter Ultimate is the shit. It's a little pricey at $60, but if you've converting quite a few clips, worth it. I haven't seen another program that can compete with it on features OR performance for that price-point.

    Apple sees Windows as competition. NO Way are they going to let you do WMV LOL

    Men especially older men who watch porn are used & know WMV.

    Mac is only 7% of the computers world wide. pc with windows is at 90%
