SD780IS video conversion

[Patrick]

This camera creates .mov files. I want to convert them to any format that I can stream from my PC to either my Xbox 360 or PS3 and maintain the HD quality. I tried AVS converter but it keeps telling me I don't have the quicktime codec installed. I can play the video just fine with the included software that came with the camera and with the Quicktime player.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

google SUPER and k-lite mega codec

Thanks, but klite doesn't have quicktime codecs and I can't get SUPER to work right. Something so simple shouldn't be so hard.

You do have quicktime right? That would be the codec. If not then add quicktime alternative.

actually, I take that back. Super is supposed to have it all as part of it. Sorry!

Yeah, I've got quicktime. I'm able to get SUPER to convert with certain settings but I cannot get either console to see the files.

SUPER even has output settings for a PS3 but when I convert to that format it takes a 130MB file and returns a 6MB file, which is not right, and the PS3 still can't play it.

If I understand correctly; ".MP4, .MOV, etc." is a container in which many different codecs could be used. It appears that the codecs are not supported by either console.

I can't get either console to see the file even when I use Zoombrowser to convert to .AVI

The most annoying part is that both consoles claim to support .MOV.
