Post by: Sando on November 28, 2011, 08:35:22 AM

Does anyone know where I can get a free m4v to MP4 converter, the ones I am getting is just free to try and only allowing me 5 mins conversation.

Thanks in advance.

I have one that costs money (though I can help you get around that with no risky cracks/keygens required) that works really well if you'd like.  A free converter that works well (though I'm not sure can handle M4V as thats sort of new and I've never tried it) is eRightSoft's SUPER.

If the video isn't longer than 10 minutes you can completely skip any external programs and just upload the M4V to a YouTube account.  It will convert it and you can download it as an MP4.

Can't remember if PSP9 does it, but it's free and you can check it out.

Try http://handbrake.fr/

I've used it on a Mac, but they have a Windows version on their download page (http://handbrake.fr/downloads.php).

If you downloaded it from iTunes you may have issues converting it no matter what as it I believe they put DRM on their files (which is what stops you from putting it on multiple computers and can stop from conversion).  Are you on PC or Mac?

Thanks guys, I have windows 7.

And Yes, iTunes does block their stuff.

But I will still try.

Thanks to all.
