SMV Video Conversion Instructions    

Open your SMV video conversion tool. The icon should be on your desktop after installation.

Once you have opened the SMV conversion tool, you will see the following window.

Our first step is to select a file to convert. To do this, you will click the “Add” button, as shown below.

A window will open, which will allow you to select your file. Highlight the file you want to convert, and click the “Open” button.

After you have chosen the file you wish to convert, and see it displayed on the main screen, you will select the location to save the file to, once it is converted, and click the “OK” button.

NOTE-with the current version of this software (v4.1) it is REQUIRED to select a save location or the file will not convert properly.

We recommend selecting a save location which is very easy for you to get to, such as the desktop, or the “my movies” folder.

Once you have selected your save directory, look to the middle-right of the screen. There you will find some conversion settings. We recommend selecting full picture, 128x160 (or 160x128), and 128MB/Hour for the optimum quality by megabyte space usage.

Now that we have everything set, the last thing we will need to do is click the “Convert” button and allow the video to convert o .SMV format. Once this process has completed, you will have the converted movie saved in the location you specified in step 5.
