I have made movies using the Windows Movie Maker and they are saved as
windows media files. Is there a way to save the movies as a different file
type so that other people, who don't normally use Windows Media Player, can
open the movie. In particular, I have quite a few relatives who have Mac
computers. The movies that I send them are very choppy when opened on
Windows Media Player on their Mac computer. Is there a way to save the
movies I make a MPEG files or a different format so that they movies are
easier to see. The movies I have made are from high quality digital
video/audio (dv-avi). The actual clips of the digital video are often 1 GB
in size, and then the movies are 50-80 MB in Windows Media Player. The size
is not a problem for the computer. However, the movies are still very choppy
when viewed on my family's Mac computers. Any suggestions?
 
Every time I visit Chicago I visit the Apple store and check a number of my
online videos on Macs, and they play smoothly with the optional downloaded
Windows Media Player.

But, like Windows computers, smooth playback will depend on the video
profile you used to render it, and the capabilities of the Mac that's
playing it. On your end you can render the movie using a lower total bitrate
profile.

Hello there,

If you pay a quick visit to my website and click on GREAT LINKS > KNOWLEDGE
BASE > VIDEO HELP you will be presented with possibly the most informed website
anywhere on what converters are available together with links to the necessary
sites and where appropriate a discussion on the converter itself....and its a
very easy site to navigate, basically you tell it what you have and want and it
gives you the known options.....Its why I put it in the Knowledge Base section,
I could think of no where better.
