I need a program to convert the HD *.mov files from my Canon 550D (T2i) camera to be able to edit them in Sony Vegas Pro 9 (that is what some people suggest to with files from this camera). Any advice?
You can use some converters to convert MOV to WMV which is the most compatible with Windows Media Player, such as Leawo Video Converter. Or you can also get the MOV Codec for Windows Media Player.
Also, there are many other MOV players that can not only support mov, but also many other formats such as AVI, MP4, etc. You can try Leawo Blu-ray Player, 5KPlayer, VLC Media Player(you may need to download some codec packs)
I use Pro9 as well. My 550D files playSMOOTH on my computer (Intel Core i7 920 2.67Ghz 12G Ram) but I still transcodethem to Sony Vegas preferred WMV video format because I often do some editingon-the-go. And the video converting software I use is Pavtube HD Video Converterwhich works well in my 550D clips.When you transcode those filesunfortunately disk space increases quite a bit...That's why I keep the 550DONLY for "creative & beauty" shots. And the output WMV is playedand edited quite smoothly and efficiently.Hope this helps.http://www.pavtube.com/hd-video-converter/

I believe it is the format,the easiest thing to do would be convert it but with what? I reccomend quicktime PRO it's around $20 and will not only play the vid, but convert it without loss of quality.

.MOV is a QuickTime file
Tools: You need Rad Video Tools (freeware) to encode mov files made by Quicktime 4.0 / 5.0!
Install Quicktime and Rad Video Tools.
Launch Rad Video Tools
1. Select the Quick Time File you want to encode
2. Click on "Convert a file"
1. Select under "Output type..." the type "Avi-File" and click on browse to select the output dir/file
2. Hit Convert.
1. Now RAD Video Tools aks you for the compression format. I prefer Pic Video MJPEG Codec with quality 20 because it take not much webspace and have good quality, but you can of course use another.
Now you have the AVI File and you can encode it to VCD or SVCD
Problems:
No audio in the AVI File:
Some Quick Time Movies have audio copy protection. A solution for it to download the application Total Recorder 3.0+. After starting this application you must press the recording button and start your Quick Time Movie. Total Recorder will only record the sound that come from the Quick Time Movie. After recording, you have to save it as wav and multiplex it for example with TMPGEnc.
