Free video decoder

Does anybody know of a free application that will convert MPG to the format that'll work with the xoom? FWIW, I'm disappointed the xoom won't natively play .mpg's.

I know its not what you asked, but DvD Catalyst was the best $9.99 I've spent. Converts movies great.

You're right; it wasn't what I was looking for but I ended up buying it and it is a GREAT program. Very slick - the best ten dollar program I've ever purchased. Thanks for the recommendation.

The other option is to find an app for the Xoom that will play the file you have... I am usng Moboplayer to play a lot of file types that Xoom wont play natively

Handbrake is free and can be set up to convert videos that play well on the Xoom.

I second this...for $10, it will convert just about any video format to fit your xoom. It also has presets for just about all smartphones.

I will THIRD this program!

The developer is VERY active on XoomForums if you need his support.
