Tried a couple but wasn't happy. Are any of you guys converting your phone vids to MPEG?
Thanks

Free 3g2 converter?

The videos taken on my phone are so absurdly terrible looking that I dare not try to introduce the artifacts of an additional compression scheme on it.
They'll play on VLC on both my Mac (Quicktime also works; I wonder if Quicktime would play it on a PC? If so, I wonder if you could then export from Quicktime?) and Linux boxen; it'd only be if I needed to authour a DVD that I'd consider transcoding the files. I'd probably attempt first to export it from VLC in that case.
It looks like there might be a quality response or two here: http://www.computing.net/answers/digitalphoto/convert-3g2-to-avi/890.html and here: http://www.gromkov.com/faq/faq2004-0067.html
EDIT: There's also some discussion about converting these files on the Ubuntu forums, furthering my speculation that VLC may be the ticket: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=132877

SUPER from erightsoft has been a godsend for video conversion.
Problem is, if the incoming video is poor, no software can create resolution that isn't there.
