On My Mac is an on-going series highlighting the software (and sometimes, hardware) I use on my Mac nearly every day. Look for additional On My Mac…posts in the coming weeks! -- Douglas
MPEG Streamclip is my goto app for converting any sort of video to any other sort of video. I use it to convert the native AVI files from my SLR came to MP4 of editing. I use it to produce the final AppleTV HD 720p videos for distribution in my podcast feeds. I use it for nearly anything…or at least try it if no one else seems to know what could/should/would work for the conversion. You can also use it to strip the audio track off a video for use as an audio-only podcast.
Available for both Windows and Macintosh systems.

"MPEG Streamclip is a powerful free video converter, player, editor for Mac and Windows. It can play many movie files, not only MPEGs; it can convert MPEG files between muxed/demuxed formats for authoring; it can encode movies to many formats, including iPod; it can cut, trim and join movies. MPEG Streamclip can also download videos from YouTube and Google by entering the page URL.
You can use MPEG Streamclip to open and play most movie formats including MPEG files or transport streams; edit them with Cut, Copy, Paste, and Trim; set In/Out points and convert them into muxed or demuxed files, or export them to QuickTime, AVI, DV and MPEG-4 files with more than professional quality, so you can easily import them in a DVD authoring tool, and use them with many other applications or devices.
