• The Mac-Forums Community Guidelines (linked at the top of every forum) are very clear, we respect US law and court precedence when it comes to legality of activity.

    Therefore to clarify:
    • You may not discuss breaking DVD or BluRay encryption, copying, or "ripping" commercial, copy-protected DVDs.
    • This includes DVDs or BluRays you own. Even if you own the DVD or BluRay, it is still technically illegal under the DMCA to break the encryption. While some may argue otherwise, until the law is rewritten or the US Supreme Court strikes it down, we will adhere to the current intent of the law.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying unprotected movies or homemade DVDs.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying tools in the context that they are used for legal purposes as outlined in this post.

I recently bought an 'mp4' player which came from China. The video file format that plays within are apparently .amv files, which seem to be some kind of MTV video format over in the Orient. The 'mp4' seem to be some kind of mislabelling and it doesn't read mp4 files:Angry-Tongue: (go figure) There are file converters (mpeg, wmv, etc to .amv)for windows machines, but i haven't seen any for mac.
Is anyone familiar with this file format and/or knows of any converters for mac?
