MOV

[Mr.Spooky]

im at a loss.
why isnt there a universal format for videos? why are there so many different formats? i have a pimp video camera,,, and cant convert the MOV format to something that youtube accepts. is there something i can change within my camera to make it simple?
i know that you computer savy guys RAD are gonna be like " convert this to this,, and then save it to this , then turn it to this , then spin around four times and turn it to this ,,,, then save to this and add attachments as this ,,,,,,,, .... you get my point.... is there a ONE time fix?????????? oh BTW, my camera is a CANNON 41X FS200.
thanks

I'm too poor to own a video camera so I won't be of much help... I checked and that camera should use the MPEG2 format...

Hmmm... Type in Canon FS200 in YouTube and you'll see that others are managing to get videos uploaded...

Mr. Spooky,

How are you getting the vid into your computer?

[Mr.Spooky]

puting the card in the SD port,,,, creating a folder on the desktop,,, and drag&drop in the folder.

From what I have read they are not MOV but MOD files. According to this site http://www.jakeludington.com/camcorder/ ... o_mpg.html

You may be able to change the extention from .mod to .mpg and that should do it.
