mpeg streamclip is a good converter. and i'm pretty sure vlc isn't a format, just the program used to view them.

-Go to Afterdawn.com
-Click on the Software Tab
-Search for exactly that
-Download program that comes up

Dont worry, Afterdawn is a LEGIT ass website. If you dont believe me look around the forums there are thousands of threads and posts for stuff like this.

my final cut pro x doesnt support any of the VLC files i have, and some quicktime files... but all of my gopro footage becomes the kind of quicktime format i need for it to work so..
