It would be great if CloneDVD mobile would have an option for converting existing video files as well as converting DVDs. The 2 other DVD 2 Mobile video applications I have used before had this option and I used it quite frequently.
Try the open source market to convert your files... http://sourceforge.net/ megui is a good ap for doing just that... k-lite codec pack has all the codecs you need to make it run...
I agree, I would like to be able to convert dvr-ms files to mp4. I have tried other programs and nothing compares to clone dvd mobile.
dvr-ms to divx, etc. There is one program I've found that does it well, and fast, and with a batch converter. PQ DVD to iPod converter. But, it doesn't have a provision to remove commercials, or do any editing, other than remove the front/end of the clip. I can see this as a feature that Slysoft could add without much cost, as dvr-ms files are MPG2 fils in an ACS (?) wrapper with some metadata that describes the program. VideoReDo has some good functionality for editing MPG2 files, but the cost is $50 and I think that's a bit steep for such limited functionality (it doesn't convert to any format - you have to keep the format you start with) Good luck - I know I've come-up wanting more. Somebody will get it eventually.
