[Hidden-tech] Convert iMovie AIC files to MPEG 4

[Videatives at aol.com]

Okay, I want to convert and need your prayers to do so.....

I have imported video files from my Cannon HD MiniDV camcorder using iMovie, 
that creates these huge AIC files.  I am stuck with these files and need to 
batch convert them to 320 x 240 size MPEG4 files.  I can do this okay with 
Quicktime Pro but QT Pro does not allow me to batch the conversion process and I 
have a tetrabyte of these things.  I have tried to convert the AIC files using 
the 4Media Video Converter (free trial version) with an AVI file that is 33 MB 
and only 2 seconds long.  The 4Media seems to accept the file but then it says 
"failed" in the status window when I try to convert to anything, including 
MPEG 4.  I am running OS X 10.4.11 on an Intel Mac.  Any suggestions will be 
greatly appreciated.  Perhaps you know of another converter that can batch 
convert Apple Intermediate Codec files to MPEG 4??  Perhaps I am not using 4Media 
correctly or the trial version does not let me convert a 33 MB file?

Thanks
