Convert videos to play on the iPhone

The iPhone supports video formats encoded using the MPEG-4 and H.264 codecs; video files encoded in these formats end with .m4v, .mp4 or .mov file extensions. If you have videos in other formats, you need to convert them to a compatible format before you can play them on the iPhone.
A number of solutions are available, including the Videora Video Converter's, Videora is a free iPhone video converter that converts video files, YouTube videos, movies and DVD's so you can play them on your iPhone. The software, developed by the creators of Videora, can convert all types of video files (avi, divx, xvid, flv, x264, vob, mpeg, DVD's, YouTube, etc.) into the proper video formats (MPEG-4, H.264) that play on the iPhone. It is available for Windows and Mac.

How to convert video using Videora :

1. Download and install Videora iphone Converter
Open Videora and select your iphone type. If you have more than one iphone, start with the one you use most for video. You can adjust settings later for different players.

2. Add videos
Click the Convert button at the top of the window, then select the Video File tab.


3. Select user profile
Click Normal Mode for the least amount of tweaking on your part. You can always go under the settings tab to adjust video output type, should you choose. For the iPhone, videos are automatically converted to H.264 at 480x320. For the iPod Classic or Nano, videos will be H.264 QVGA.


4. Add video
Click Select File, then navigate to the window that contains the video that you want to convert.


5. Select output directory
Click Browse, then navigate to the folder where you want your output file saved. Click Next.


6. Name the video
Type in a name for the video. This is how the title will be displayed on your iphone. Click Next.


7. Adjust video settings
The better the video quality you select, the larger the output file will be. Left the settings as is and the result was passable when played back on the iphone. Click Next.


8. Convert video
Click Start Converting.


9. Monitor progress
You'll be taken to a screen with two options. Click View Conversion in Process. You can also get to the monitoring screen by clicking the Convert button at the top of the screen, and then the Progress tab.


10. Add files to the queue
Repeat steps 2 through 9, adding as many videos as you wish to convert. Recommend doing this at night before you go to bed, as the process is time consuming and slows your machine somewhat. You can check the box labeled Shutdown When Complete if you want your computer to be automatically shut down at the end of the process.

Videora should automatically add the completed files to iTunes. In the event that it fails to add a file, simply navigate to the output folder you selected and drag the file directly into the iTunes interface. Videos automatically show up under Movies unless you edit each one's information in iTunes. To do so, right click the file, select Get Info, then click the Video tab. Under the Video Kind drop-down, select the appropriate category. If it's a TV Show, you can add the show name, season number, and episode number.

After converting the video to a compatible format, use iTunes to sync the videos with your iPhone. Another popular free solution is Handbrake which is able to directly transcode DVD, HD-DVD, and BlueRay source.
