How to Convert Video to iPod MP4 on Mac

Videos on iPod really do look great because of its MPEG-4 H.264 format. If you have an iPod (of course the iPod with video), one of the things you probably want to do is put your favorite videos on it. But you need to convert just about any video format to the H.264 MP4 format that iPod require before you put it on iPod.

And my favorite tool for completing this task is Video Converter for Mac. It supports all popular video formats including MP4, WMV, FLV, 3GP and various portable devices like iPod, iPhone, iPad, PSP, BlackBerry. You can also extract audio from video and convert it to any popular audio formats like MP3, AC3, M4A. What's more, you customize your video by trimming, merging, cropping, and adding special effects.

Note: If you are using Windows and want to convert videos to MP4 for your iPod, you can refer to Video Converter Ultimate for Windows.
