Could anyone point me in the right direction on this one? I need to convert movies and video clips on my Mac to be able to watch them on my Black Berry. They need to be converted to MPEG4 Part 2 and H.263. But all the newer video conversion programs are converting at MPEG4 H.264. Anyways, the Black Berry 8100 won’t read H.264, only H.263, which in my opinion was a HUGE screw up on RIM’s behalf. I have found a few of the correct conversions with what I need but they are only supported my Windows. And I have a Mac… So please does anyone here with a Mac know where I can get this from? ---

a quick google provides: [http://homepage.mac.com/major4/](http://homepage.mac.com/major4/) which can do h.263 and also runs very nice on my linux box, in case anyone cares. ---

Thats the one I tried but it only reads h.263 and converts it to the newer one of H.264… I need to try and find the older version of that program.
