I use windows movie maker to make some movies that I want to play on my parcel in SL and I can't seem to find a good converter. I've gotten the converted files to play in SL but the sound lags way behind the picture.

Does anyone know of a good (and easy to use) program to convert wmv to second life formats successfully?

Actually, I think the sound might be playing a bit ahead of where it's supposed to be.

i convert to .3gp for my SL videos, its smaller file size less load on my server.
free converter here: http://www.videohelp.com/tools?tool=3GP_Converter
i also have a button script so visitors can choose what video to load on land.

Which settings do you use? I just tried "QVGA Normal Quality 15fps Mono" and the sound is still out of sync in SL.

oh if your having sync problems convert to mpeg4 first with videora

then convert to .3gp or leave as mpeg4 if ya can spare the bandwidth :)
