What does it do?

This software allows you to quickly create movies for playback on the Sony Ericsson P800 smartphone. You can take a movie from your DV-camcorder, from a website or from any other source and convert it into a super small file, which is optimised for playback on the P800 built-in video player. Watch your favorite tv-show on the train or show your home movies to friends. The software can do a two-click conversion of a video file to a P800 movie. It's easy and fast and all settings are done automatically.The software dramatically reduces file sizes, so that a half hour tv-show fits onto a 32 Mb Memorystick. A feature film would fit on a 128 Mb stick.

Most AVI, DV, Quicktime and MPEG formats are supported. Certain movie files can't be converted. For example Real Video and WMV-files are not compatible with this software. Also protected files, such as DVD's are not supported. Other than that, you can pretty convert anything that moves.

What version of Quicktime do I need?
Get Quicktime 6.0 or higher and do a standard installation. You need the free Quicktime Player, which is part of a standard installation. Get the latest version here. Moviemaker does not need the professional version of Quicktime to work.

What are the limitations of the demo version?

The demo will stop working after a minute, allowing you to convert small movies (up to 30 seconds), but not larger files. Also the demo will pop-up a 'Buy Now' window.

Where do I find free movies on the internet?
