It shouldn't matter what format they are in, bb desktop manager will convert them to the right format automatically.

Best freeware video and audio converter I've found:

SUPER © .

Can be a challenge to download, if you get exasperated, use this site:

Download SUPER 2009 Build 35 - Simplified Universal Player Encoder & Renderer is a GUI to ffmpeg, mencoder, mplayer - Softpedia

meh... unless you're sticking the micro SD card straight into your computer, you still need to use DM to put it on your bb, which will auto convert it either way... seems like a waste of a dl to me. I suppose that could be pretty useful in other situations though.

I use it all the time, and have no problem dragging and dropping. Maybe your using the wrong settings.

With DM? That's because you already have it in an acceptable format for your bb. If say you tried to put a wav file onto your bb, then DM will auto convert it to mp3. if it's already mp3, then yeah it's super easy. **** it's super easy anyway.

You do not need to use DM for anything but installing apps/ Backing Up-Restoring and OS updates.

You can copy and paste it stright to the media card if you have mass media support turned on.

And DM will only convert movies if you have the media side of DM downloaded as well.

I have DMv4.6 no media support and I get around just fine.

As MJ and I have been saying, almost no one uses the Media portion of DM. Super will take most any format, and convert it to an acceptable BlackBerry format. It will also compress it as much or as little as you want. You can also use Super for audio files, and it works wonderfully with them as well. If you need help using Super Evo, I or MJ would be glad to offer assistance. The basic set up is described nicely in detail here:

Fair enough. Is there any reason you all do not use the DM Media? It doesn't seem to take up too much space on my computer and I love it just fine. Works great.

Yes MJ you're right, when you turn it on you can drag and drop, but then you need a seperate program to convert them. I personally would rather just have one program that does it all for me.

Because DM doesn't give you near the control of a program like Super. And, quite frankly, Roxio is a separate program. It just happens to be packaged with DM.
