Since buying a new Kodak camera recently to replace a Kodak camera that was part of a camera/photo printer dock package, I opted to replace it with
another Kodak camera that would adapt to my photo printer dock that will recharge my batteries as well as print my photos directly from the camera.
I was aware that it would only produce video files in the .mov file type. This is a problem if you have a computer with Windows and not a Mac from Apple.
So I searched and browsed and check and compared.. and decided on the Kodak Z712 IS would suit my needs wonderfully and probably forever.
I asked the clerk where I bought the camera if the video file type of this new Kodak was capable of producing was .mov and .avi as well..
He assured me that whatever I desired could be had with the new camera..
( the camera cost me more than the previous dock and camera combined did.. it should be able to get Brad Pitt to star in my videos if I wanted it too!)
Imagine my shock.. and then irritation ... and then plain ole pissed off to the maximum .. when I discovered the guy lied to me.. imagine that!
I contacted Kodak about my problem and asked for a solution from them.. their return mail told me the solution was to purchase the Quicktime Pro .. from Apple .. of course.
This they jubilantly explained to me.. would give me editing options and a player to play the videos with as well. I replied asking for the forms to fill out and address to return
their camea to them and get my money refunded to me.
I have not heard from them yet.. later after the blood vein in my temple was restored to normal proportions..
I set about, researching the problem through the Microsoft help and solutions pages..
I find that Microsoft has allowed Apple to develope and use freely a converter which allows Quicktime to play and edit .avi and .wma Microsoft media player files.
"BUT" Apple does not return this favor to Microsoft.
THIS IS OUT AND OUT TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE! THIS MEANT.. WAR!
Well.. hehehehe! NANNY NANNY POO POO KODAK/QUICKTIME BULLY TACTICS!!!!!!
This website is FREE!! Yes you read that correctly.. FREE!
No gimmicks.. no trials.. nothing underhanded.. trust me, I have checked this place with every tool at my disposal to
find a string or even a piece of lint .. it is not there.. this is legit.
Simple and easy to use .. they will host your file for 120 days if you request it.. they offer a link you can send through email to friends and family
so they might download it to their computer.. they do not offer hotlinking to stream out the videos or images..audio files, adobe reader files.. ringtones.. you name a file type..
they can convert it to what ever you want it to be.. they have a limit of 150 MB for a file size.. and even the largest document file can be split into 5 MB clips and then they
have a link to a splicer that another site is offering..
I can now take my videos.. edit them right there in their editor.. and then convert them from .mov to .wma ( any media player file type even .flp and shockwave file types
from obsure places can be converted.. and it is very fast .. very fast.
