You are better off using a command line video convertor like : http://www.ffmpeg.org/[^]

I have seen a program using VB.Net using the ffmpeg, but I am extremely interested in the actual conversion code itself and how it works. Thanks for your reply though

Video conversion is a complicated affair which is not suited to the VB6 language and runtime.

Do you know of any documentation that may explain the process?
