Thanks I'll try it when I get home tonight!! I'll let you know if it works or not.

Thanks Zammy. As far as I know Apple offers an mpeg2 component just to read the file. Anything else?

I just "won" one of those new JVC Digital Media Cameras. And you guessed it, it don't work on my Mac. It saves my digital movies as Mpeg2 files. Does any know of a utility I can use to convert the files into Mpeg4 files? I would like to import them into iMovie, or iDVD if I could. Any help...

Thanks for replying. No, I haven't tried that, but now I will. You Da Man!! Thanks, EZD50

Thanks, I'll try it. I also have a 2nd hard drive with Jaguar and OS 9.2. When I startup on the CD and from the menu choose startup disk, neither drives show up. Could it be my primary drive has failed? Thanks, EZD50
