.mov and .avi are also different file formats. Some software will not care about the file extension and detect the format based on the contents of the file.

IIRC avi is a container format rather than a format in itself. Wouldn't surprise me if mov is as well.

What's the easiest way to convert a file from one format to another.
What I am trying to do is convert a PNG file to a JPEG File.

Apple OSX & iMac
Open .png in preview
Save as .jpeg
(You can vary the quality up to 50kb in this example)
.png

.jpeg


If you set .png info to default open in Preview, all it takes is a double click to open in Preview.

(It shows in B&W)

Re: File Conversion

So?
The jpeg has thrown away some info, allowing more compression.
