University of North Dakota video lessons
B A R R Y
UND has put video ground school lessons up for free! My Ipod is audio
only, but I watch the lessons on my PC. Video Ipod owners can obviously
take the video with them.
Take a look! The videos even feature commercial maneuvers.
Anit-spam disclaimer: I don't have anything to do with UND, Apple,
etc... This is posted only to share something I thought is ineteresting.

Why not just purchase a full functioning version of QT from Apple for
$30?

ITunes is free, and will at least let you watch the shows.

I've had reasonable luck with MediaCoder http://mediacoder.sourceforge.net/ .
I don't know if it speaks .M4V, but I suspect it does or can be made to.

Frugality prevents me from needlessly discarding my dollars by making
a purchase when free tools are on-line (as they've always been in the
Unix community). I found this little tool that will play the M4V
files: http://www.soft29.com/freeware/youtube_uploader.htm . No need
to install Apple's invasive bloatware to decode their intentionally
incompatible, proprietarily encoded video. Just say no....

True. But ITunes requires the installation of the latest version of
Quicktime Player which has become more of a bloated and invasive
marketing tool than a player. No thanks.

There is also a product called "Quick Time Alternative" and the earlier
versions worked well, although I have not ket up to date.

Thanks, Matt.
MediaCoder looks interesting. From this information in their web
site:
Supported Fomats [sic]
MP3, Vorbis, AAC, AAC+, AAC+v2, MusePack, Speex, AMR, WMA,
RealAudio, mp3PRO* FLAC, WavPack, Monkey's Audio, OptimFrog, AAC
Lossless, WMA Lossless, WAV/PCM H.264, Xvid, MPEG 1/2/4, Theora,
Flash Video, Dirac, 3ivx*, RealVideo*, Windows Media Video AVI,
MPEG/VOB, Matroska, MP4, RealMedia*, ASF, Quicktime*, OGM* CD,
VCD, DVD, CUE Sheet*
* supported as input only
It's not clear if MediaCoder can read ITunes M4V flies.
