bottom of the window. Repeat the Add File process until you have
completed your list of videos to convert.
5. Once the list is complete, click the Begin button ( ) to start
converting and saving the list of videos. A message will appear to
indicate when the list is complete.
3.3 Using Other Conversion Software
While the included software converts numerous formats to the format
required by the player, there may be some that it cannot convert, such as
MP4 files. However, you can find other free software on the Internet that
can do the job. For software that specifically converts MP4 files, follow
these steps:
1. Using your favorite web browser, visit www.download.com.
2. Enter the following search phrase: pazera mp4 avi
3. Click Download Now on the row that reads Pazera Free MP4 to AVI
Converter.
4. Once the download is complete, unzip the file.
5. To run the program, enter the new unzipped folder and double-click
mp4toavi.exe.
6. Run the program and
make sure that when
you convert videos
that you configure a
resolution of 320x240.
3.4 Converting Video in Linux
While the player does not
come with conversion
software for Linux, there
are several free, open
source programs available
in Linux that can do the
necessary transcoding.
The three most powerful commandline encoders are mencoder, ffmpeg.
and transcode. To make things easier, you can use one of the many
available front-ends, although the simplest may be avidemux (pictured).
Regardless of the tool you use, transcode videos as follows:
AVI file container
MP3 audio encoder
Filter: Mix audio down to stereo
Xvid video encoder
Filter: reduce to 320x240
