Hi Brian; Thank you very much for the clarification. I figured that the program would work so, I downloaded it from your prior post and saved it along with the steps for using it. Thanks again, take care. Mike

I am not sure about 64-bit Windows. I found that there is a later version of the program than what I put a link to in my earlier message. I have put it in my drop box folder and a link to the newer version is shown below. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3951772/winff-1.2-setup.exe As I mentioned in my earlier message, using the tab key in the program's interface window moves focus between all the controls. There is a menu bar with a file menu, edit menu, options and help menu, but I have found that all the controls usually needed for converting between the many audio and video formats are easily navigated using the tab key and arrow keys. I am using JAWS 11 and there is only one button that is not labeled that I found in the interface window. It is the button for browsing to choose a different output folder. However, in the tab order, it is located right after the edit box where a path for the output folder can be typed and just before the add button. The newer version also has more choices in the "convert to" box. There are now twenty-four choices in that box, and a total of one hundred and twelve presets offered by the program. The convert to list includes the following: Audio, AVI, Blackberry, Bravia, Creative Zen, DV, DVD, Google Android, IPOD/ITunes, LG, mobile phones, MPEG4, neuros OSD, Nokia, Palm, PS3, PSP, QuickTime, Rockbox, Tuna-Vids, VCD, Walkman, Websites and WMV. Each of these choices have different available presets. For example, the audio convert to choice has AC3 DVD 192kbps STEREO, ac3 DVD 384KBPS stereo, MP3, MPEG4 audio, OGG, WAV and WMA. The IPOD/ITunes choice in the newer version also has additional presets. The presets for IPOD/ITunes are iPhone wide screen, IPOD small converted to wide screen, IPOD small full screen, IPOD small wide screen, IPOD small wide screen anamorphic, IPOD TV Out converted to wide screen, IPOD TV out full screen, IPOD TV out wide screen and IPOD TV out wide screen anamorphic. The web site is www.winff.org where there are links for documentation and downloads. Take care.

It is quite simple to use and works well with JAWS. I don't know if it works with a 64-bit system. It has been some time since I used it and I really don't remember the system requirements, but it works well on the Vista 32-bit system I am using with this computer. The program loads with an interface that is easy to navigate using the tab or shift+tab keystrokes. There is an add button that is identified by JAWS when you tab to it. Pressing spacebar on the button results in the usual add file dialog box. You can easily find the output folder by tabbing to where it is shown and you can browse to another output folder to use if you want to. If you want to use two passes in the conversion process then there is a checkbox for that choice, which of course will take longer. I haven't had any problems with the output using the single pass. There is a "convert to" combo box with twenty choices in it. The twelfth choice in the list is for MPEG4. If you tab once past the convert to box there is a list of presets for the convert to choice you make. The presets for MPEG4 are MP4 full screen and MP4 wide screen. The eighth choice in the "convert to" combo box is for IPOD/ITunes, and the presets for that choice are "IPod small converted to wide screen", "IPod small full screen", "IPod small wide screen", IPod small wide screen anamorphic, "IPod TV out converted to wide screen", "IPod TV out full screen", "IPod TV out wide screen", and "IPod TV out anamorphic." Bitrates and frame rates are controlled by the presets. After making your choices you can tab to the convert button and press spacebar. When converting starts you can read the current line or status line and hear how many frames have been processed. When converting is done you will have a message to press any key to continue when you read the current line. I have also used DVDFlick to convert to different video types. Here is a link to the WinFF file if you want to try it. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3951772/winff-1.0.4-setup.exe Take care.
