I’m a so freaking pissed. I’ve been trying to convert a 720p MKV video file to a 720p MP4 file with no video quality loss. I’ve been trying to do this for almost a week without luck. Isn’t there a program that I can just drag the file onto, set it to MP4 and get my file with no quality loss? – From forums.macrumors.com
