Today happen to shoot some videos using my Nokia E71 phone and there are all in mp4 format. To view it, i always use
VLC player when my WIndows Media Player fail to open it. Is still not too bad but my friend asked me it is possible to get a free program to convert it to other format that can be played on Windows Media Player? Google around internet and yes there is, the
Avidemux. Is quite a nice program and once you manage to find the best setting, converting video is a very straight forward task.

Open the file you want to convert

Select your settings, for my case i choose
Video: MPEG-4 AVC (x264)
Audio: MP3 (LAME)

And lastly, save the file and remember to the label the extension, example, name.avi
Do you have any free program to recommend, feel free to add in the comments! :)
