You should be able to convert them inside Windows Media Player. Open the WMP and somewhere there is a tab that lets you sync media for playback. If you can't figure out how to do that, there are downloadable converters that convert any media format to pretty much any other media format. Just google %26quot;video converter,%26quot; or %26quot;convert video%26quot; and you will get loads of pages. Just look around until you find one that's adware and spyware free. I've done it with videos to play on my portable media player. Only problem is, unless you get a really good converter, conversion is lossy, which means that your converted video will not be as clear as the original, so you might consider paying for a cheap one at Office Depot.How can I change the format of my videos when I import them onto my computer?

Quicktime is your downloader so the upload format will be quicktime. To convert it after the download is no big deal. If you want to upload in .wmm then use an uploader that does that. Don't know of any but should be easy to find, just google .mpeg or .wmm uploader.
