3gp movies - how to convert (to AVI?)

[arno]

Hello,

I have a Nokia 6280 mobile phone which can take films stored in the 3gp
format. I would like to make real films out of these files, but they have to
be converted somehow.

How can I convert these 3gp-files into a format that can be used by windows
or the movie maker or windows media player? Which format would be
preferrable? Are there any free tools? Pls. post if you already successfully
did what I am trying!

I tried some tools that google shows but with no luck. I can convert in good
quality to MP4 with "3GP_Converter"

however, I read that this format is not good for use in programs like
moviemaker because it is good for low bandwith internet connections.

regards

arno
