So I tried this MPEG StreamClip program that's supposed to convert videos to different formats. Well, I got one to work and then, after that, it just didn't. I went through the same steps and waited and when I tried to open the converted file, it just opened the program and not Realplayer or, which usually handles this file type. I'm frustrated enough where I'm considering reformatting the machine, and if that doesn't work, just selling it. I can't take this insanity. I just want to be able to have a nice Greek keyboard on here and to make youtube videos. It's bad enough that this is a large machine and that the charger cord is so short it's laughable, but when I can't do my work and ordinary things, it really gets on my nerves. Alternatively, how do I check those things that were mentioned in the second post here? Is there something that I can use rather than PhotoBooth to make videos that will create a more youtube--friendly video?
