I am thinking about purchasing QuickTime Pro for Windows, but I have not been able to find a list of video file formats that it takes as input. Does QuickTime Pro for Windows convert .mpg files to .mov? Thank you!

  • Any reason to? A .mov is basically just a MPEG container. With what Codec is the actual video encoded? – Gerry Jul 24 '12 at 14:30
  • @Gerry I am using [VideoMach](http://gromada.com/videomach/) on Windows to compile many bitmap files and it says that the Codec is "MPEG-1". VideoMach does not directly export to **.mov**, unfortunately. – Andrew Jul 24 '12 at 14:35
  • I'd suggest using standard MPEG4 containers, unless you have a specific reason for using .mov? – Gerry Jul 24 '12 at 14:37
  • @Gerry Thanks, my friend who is a Mac user sometimes has trouble playing **.mpg** files that I send him. I am a Windows user, so I'm not exactly sure what goes wrong sometimes when he tries to play them. – Andrew Jul 24 '12 at 14:41

It does. Here you can find a list of all the import and export formats QuickTime Pro 7.7 supports.
