You’ve borrowed your cousin’s ancient digital video camera. After recording your kids at the park, you copy the file to your computer and then realize that it’s some odd file that won’t play on your system. You could download a unique program or drivers to view it, but then you’re limited to those tools. Instead, be a good geek and convert the video into a more commonly used type with one of these free and easy tools.
