We get a lot of questions here at BBGeeks, and many of them relate to the multimedia functions of the BlackBerry. I’m not sure if it’s the most frequently asked, but it’s certainly among them: how do you convert video for your BlackBerry? We’ve recommended conversion applications before, but this one is easier than all of them. RealPlayer SP converts many file types to your BlackBerry, so you can take any video on your computer, convert it, and load it right onto your BlackBerry. It should make life easy for everyone.

Not only can you convert videos from your computer for your BlackBery, but you can also download Web videos, and then convert them. This includes Flash sites like YouTube. While you can view YouTube videos on your BlackBerry, you have more control over your media by downloading the videos and loading them onto your BlackBerry media card.

If you want to shell out $39.99, you can add advanced features like H.264 conversion and 120-minute DVD burning. Those sound nice, but I’m perfectly content with the free version. You can download RealPlayer SP at Real.com.
