How can I encode HD video clips in.MOV (~400mb about 2 minutes of video) to MP4 format for Mac. Alright, I recently get an iPod. Now the problem is I'm getting my videos off my canon camcorder as a MOV file, and for it to play on the iPod it had to be a MP4 format. This free MOV Video Converter for Mac is the most stable and comprehensive free multi-format video converter available. It supports free converting a wide range of video formats including AVI, FLV, MOV, MP4, MPEG, M2TS, MTS, RM, RMVB, QT, WMV, etc.
'Can I play MP4 files on my Mac? QuickTime won't open an MP4 from iMovie and prompted me to download additional codec. How to play MP4 on Mac with QuickTime?'
You can play MP4 on Mac. QuickTime supports most of MP4 videos with MPEG-4, MPEG-2, H.264 video codec and MP3, AAC codec. However, since MP4 is only a container rather than an encoding process, it can hold videos with different encodings, which is what trips up QuickTime. For example, MPEG-4 Part 10 (known as H.264/MPEG-4 AVC) and MPEG-4 Part 2 could cause a codec problem which make QuickTime unable to play the MP4 file.
If you want to play any MP4 videos on QuickTime, iPad, iPhone, iTunes, etc, you'd better convert MP4 to MOV first because MOV is the default format of macOS/Mac OS X and performs optimum compatibility with Apple devices.
