I have a movie in .mpg format that was sent to me on a CD-R disk. It was shot on a camcorder and I don't know how it was put on the CD. Perhaps as a file straight out of the video camera. I can play it with <a href="http://www.videolan.org/" target="_blank">VideoLan</a> but nothing else. Unfortunately, VideoLan does not convert anything, it only plays. Is ther an app that will allow me to convert this movie to a useful format, one I can open with something else?

sounds like MPEG-2. You can demux it with bbdemux, if it has sound, then MacMPEG2Decoder, or MacMPEG2DecX, or another MPEG-2 decoder can convert it to quicktime

I downloaded <a href="http://www.versiontracker.com/moreinfo.fcgi?id=14157&db=mac" target="_blank">mpeg2decX-0.17</a> and converted my .mpg movie to a Quick Time format (.mov) and it played, but with no sound! I first tried MacMPEG2Decoder, but it gagged on the file and gave me an error message and left me only the option to quit. So that's out. Anybody know what I should do? Why no sound?

You'll need to demux the original file first. Then when you convert everything you'll need to paste the sound into the QT video file and save.
