What is the extension?

I personally don't have an ipod (any version), but my friends say that iTunes can convert music files...you can also get online file converters, in basically any combonation.

Ok...PRETTY simple, requiring no downloading extra software: http://media-convert.com/

Just make sure the output format iPod or iPhone and the extension to IPOD/IPHONE MP4 Video (.mp4)

The extension is DVR-MS. Quote from: aniketkar94 on May 31, 2009, 03:26:49 PM

The input extension should automatically be chosen.I will try it. On the website, the list of input options did not include DVR-MS. Quote from: aniketkar94 on JUNE 02, 2009, 05:33:20 PM

What is the EXTENSION, like .doc or .txt?Under properties in Vista, it says:

Type of File: Microsoft Recorded TV Show (.dvr-ms)

Under security, it lists the file as unprotected. So I think it is possible to convert it. Quote from: aniketkar94 on June 02, 2009, 06:42:11 PM

I have never heard of that extension before...
Anyway, a quick google search brought this link up (the most secure link according to WOT) http://www.dvr-ms.com/convert-to-mp4.htm . It can convert to iPod format, so it should suit your needs...it does say that it's a trial version. Quote from: aniketkar94 on June 02, 2009, 06:42:11 PM
