Hi, is there a good app for the iPad that can watch movies that are not specifically converted to watch on the iPad?

Thanks...

You'll ALWAYS want to convert your stuff into H.264 MOV (MP4 / M4V) files whenever possible to avoid having to play back non-MOV (MP4 / M4V) files using the far slower and far less efficient CPU. In a lot of cases (MKV's, camera MTS'es etc), this can be done with simple remuxing - no time-consuming reencoding needed.

You might want to read the past, multimedia-related articles at http://www.iphonelife.com/werner.ruotsalainen ; there are a lot of articles on these subjects.

Thank you...

So simply remuxing will let iTunes sync it to the iPad?

Does this work?http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/35968/remux/

Thanks.
