I purchased an iPod for my wife this Christmas. When I discovered that Apple did not yet acknowledge AVI files, I set about finding a converter for her. After a few unsatisfactory installations, I stumbled upon this simple, free utility.

Note - this is basically a GUI front end for FFmpeg - I'm not sure if it's included or if you have to download it separately (I already had it in my system via the KLite codec pack.)

This is just a test. Don't get too excited. :)
