Iphone Movie Conversions

[JFraser1]

Hi. I recently used the Roxio iPhone Conversion tool to convert Blade for use in the iPhone. The video file ended up compressing to approximately 340 MB and then I imported it into the iTunes Library into the movies category. Then when I tried to sync the new movie (and bear in mind that I already have many in my phone) it said that this movie is not capable of playing in my iPhone as is, and hence it prohibited the synchronization of that file. Now I'm converting it a second time directly through iTunes to get it to be actually compatible with my iPhone. Has anyone else been experiencing the same sort of problem? Has anyone found a viable solution yet? Please let me know...

Oh. I just had to switch the Video Format from H.264 to MPEG 4 - Higher Quality. Sounds like a bug in Roxio's software since H.264 is supposed to be compatible with the iPhone.

 

I still can't get this software to convert widescreen formatted movies to fullscreen formatted movies. This is an unfortunate lack of flexibility for this software, especially considering the fact that the iPhone is already so wide as it is relative to its height, so why make it wider? If there was also an option to stretch the video, or zoom in to enable the fullscreen that would also be great.
