With Quicktime Player 6.3 Pro can de- and encode .3gp-files (you gotta pay for this player).
With the normal version you only can watch .3gp-files.

Real Helix Producer can also encode, there is a basic free version which do it:

3gp is a kind of mpeg4-format.

Helix PRoducer converts files to .rm format, which can only be played back in realone on your phone.

To convert to .3gp, try pvauthor or nokia multimedia converter.

For pvauthor, there is a downloadable cracked version available somewhere but i cant remember where.

Go to www.forum.nokia.com and search for "Nokia Multimedia Converter 2.0 Beta" and download the file. Make sure you bokkbark the page where you can request a serial number, because you will need after you install the program.

You may have trouble running it straight away. You might need to download a Java Runtime Enviroment in order for the program to workl. In the included help file, there is a web address where you should go to get this file.

It's hard to find, but just keep looking for "Java Runtime Enviroment" . The file is available as a seperate download. I found a link first for the download of the full Java Software Development Kit, which included the runtime enviroment, but it is like a 190mb download.

Anyway, when you have got it to work, and converted some movies and they're on your phone, get a program called PVPlayer. It plays MPEG-4 files, and can also play .3gp files.....full screen. You flip the phone on it's side.

Anyway, good luck with the program. If you need any more help, just ask. Oh, and PVPlayer is available on my group

OK, Johnny is right @ Real Helix Producer, was a miss-reading of me in another forum.

The right Real-Tool is Helix Mobile Producer v2.0

You can search for ANY file extention & if it's there,

If you want a program to convert almost all video types

ImToo has an excellent....simple....fast converter.

It's a trial version only, but those with a bit of know how can
work out how to get around that. icon_grin.gif

I have personally installed...tested & now use all of the above software
