I want to convert movies to watch on mobile while computing. I want to be able to use MP4 format without much loss in quality. Can anyone recommend software for this?
I've tried Format Factory but it doesn't seem to work.

I love DVDfab, while it isn't free it is reasonable prices and works great. It is simple to use and their support is excellent.

I have used both DVD Fab and Handbrake, both work great!!

I still prefer Format Factory, although there are many nice programs: XMedia Recode, Handbrake, Freemake Video Converter, VidCoder (version of Handbrake with "target size" function ;) )

I'm using FormatFactory right now; it does his job very well. Did you follow help file directions? What does "it doesn't work properly" mean?

hi manideit repeatedly shows task failed for no reasoni don't know what is wrong but the conversion is not completed every time..help!!!

Ops! I've never met this issue...If I were you, I would unistall, clean registry, reinstall FormatFactory and give it one more try. If fails again, you may consider another option; 'Handbrake' maybe...
