Converting *.mov files into mpeg2 files....

[ez2300hc]

Hi, everybody....
I'm new in Mac OS system, and I want to convert a mov file that i generated on Flash 8.I need to convert this file into mpeg2, and i don't know what to do.....
I downloaded FFMPEG, but i searched on net that MAC OS mpeg 2 encoder is not free!!! Then I searched more and find that has a tool that uses the "hiden" mpeg2 encoder that comes with imovie or idvd.... I downloaded this program.... dont remember the name.... but it didnt work...(I think that it didnt work because i have a INTEL BASED mac....).
PLEASE..HELP ME!!!!


THANKS!!!!

Ok, slow down, and welcome to our corner of the world!

ffmpegx is what you need...it has the LOWEST cost overall
of any app that can create MPEG-2 streams ( and those on
the mac being MPEGStreamclip, Quicktime Pro, Final
Cut Pro with Compressor 2, DVD Studio Pro with Compressor,
Toast Titanium 7..I'm probably forgetting a few...)

If you downloaded it, then you should be able to use it's tutorials
to create what you need rather easily. ffmpegx will work
on an Intel Based MAC, so no worries there.
