The question on time lapse got me thinking that my ways of processing movies from the 5DII are not very good. (The movies that come directly off the 5DII are unplayable on my computer because they have too high a data rate and my computer is too slow. So I convert them from huge .MOV files to much smaller .avi files)


I have a couple of ways I do it now, but neither is good. I use Rad video tools, but I have to convert one movie at a time. Or mencoder, but that is a little hard to use. I want something that can do batch processing easily, preferably with a gui, where I can just say "convert all movies in such and such directory and call me in the morning" kind of thing.


Anyone have a better way? Or do you all have computers that are so fast you can just play giant .MOV files directly?
