Title: Convert 3GPP to something Windows Media Player can understand
Post by: SSH on Mon 22/12/2008 16:19:05
My wife's phone records videos in 3GPP and I need to convert it for conservative relatives who don't want to install any (possibly dodgy!) new codecs, etc. I tried to convert using MediaCoder, but I don't know what settings for the output file I should use so that they can play it with no trouble.. anyone got any ideas?

Irfanview plays all kinds of formats that WMP can't understand... but it does mean downloading Irfanview, so it depends if your relatives trust it.

P. S. that's not to say it will understand 3GPP by any means, but it might be worth a try.

I don't know what MediaCoder can do but I found this after searching for 3gp on Lifehacker.com

seems you can convert them to WMV which I guess would mean windows would understand it? Assuming relatives have windows machines?

Or just convert them and upload them to a video sharing site for the easiest of use but I know, public website for private videos...
