I'd like to convert some video files to mpeg-4 format easily but I'm
unable to do it. I'm unable to find any comprehensive info about
packages that need to be installed in Fedora 17 in order to work with
aforementioned files. So I ended up mixing some advice form several
blogs etc. I can watch mp4 videos but not create them from other media
files.
You've not indicated if you any 3rd party repos defined. I suspect not....
If you don't have 3rd party repos, that explains the "problem". The
standard Fedora
repos don't contain software that is patent encumbered.....like mpeg and mp3.
You should visit
http://rpmfusion.org/ and configure the free and non-free repos.
I am sure others can point you to the software to do what you ask. I happen to be on
f16 and use HandBrake for all my conversion needed. But, there are plenty of others.
