open the image in MSPAINT or some other editor… then save as JPEG or something… don’t know why stills would be in MPEG to begin with… or you could change the settings on the camera… but you suck at examples. ---

i use video edit magic, and after youve gone through and edited or at least added your movie to the timeline - go to top left- file - make movie … then it will automatically save a .avi - try this or look for soemthing similar that says: convert media or soemthing ---

try downloading video edit magic - then get crack for it, or DL one with a crack - and you should be all set or if you really need - swing by here and if you got firewire port on the cam or you use mini DV we can put it on my comp - then burn it to cd for you ---

just plug the camera into the your PC goto my computer-\>camera and pick and choose which file you want to copy. (if I understand what your asking for)
