# SmartMovie first aid information

Thank you for downloading SmartMovie software. With this software, you will be able to convert your movies from desktop PC into mobile-friendly format and play them on your mobile device.

This file will give you basic information to make you start up with movie conversion and watching on your device. You may find more detailed help in the SmartMovie Converter installed on your PC.

1. Opening videos in the converter:

If you don’t have done this before, you may need to install codecs on your PC so that SmartMovie Converter will be able to read videos.

Recommended codec packs are:

FFDShow

K-lite

Note: there’re many codec packs available on Internet for download. The above files are just our favorites. You may successfully use SmartMovie Converter also with different codecs.

Install one of codec pack, which should let you play most video formats. If you have still problems, you may need to install additional codecs for your particular video files.

Note: opening RealMedia RM or QuickTime MOV files requires separate codecs which may be found on the Internet. See more in SmartMovie Help.

Basically, if you can open a video in Windows Media Player, then SmartMovie should be able to open it too.

2. Converting videos:

To successfully convert video, you’ll need to use correct video codec. The easiest way to set up things is to choose codec named “XviD Encoder” in SmartMovie Converter Video settings area.

You may later experiment with other video codecs if you wish (DivX6, 3IVX, etc).

3. This is freeware version

After many years, in 2011 we released SmartMovie for Symbian S60 v2 devices as freeware.

We wish you a lot of fun with SmartMovie.
