How to Convert to MPG Mov

If you have a video with a lesser known file extension, you can convert it into the more popular MPG movie extension. There is no need to struggle with complicated batch files or attempts to write your own conversion programs. Instead you can use any of the readily available MPG conversion utilities on the Internet.
