Convert for MAC

[carbongixxer]

I have some AVI. divx video files that I want to edit on my MAC. What is a good video converter for MAC and what format should I convert them to?

Thanks for your help.

Probably better asked in our Mac Forum. Moving you.

And welcome to our forums.

MPEG Streamclip + the Perian plugin will do the job for you. MPEG Streamclip will permit cutting out unwanted footage and converting (either before or after the cutting) to another format.

Which Mac app do you want to edit with?

I wanted to use Final cut pro.

once done in MpegStreamclip, export the files as DV Stream files
for ingestion into Final Cut Pro, thus avoiding the constant need for
rendering the Video while in use in the timeline.
