After copying the Servicemenu, dolphin needs some time (about 30sec. for me) to update to the new version, maybe try again?
Otherwise, I cannot reproduce the error and thus don't know what exactly the issue is...

Thank you for this service menu. It's very useful and works fine with my iPod nano. For me I edited line 51 in 2video4mobile.sh to
Quote:newname=$(kdialog --getsavefilename "$(basename "$1" .avi).mp4" "*.mp4 |MP4 $FILES")
to get proposed the name in dialogue. The '.avi' removes this extension. I didn't figure out a way to get work for all file types. Perhaps, you can.
It would be very nice, if you could add a progressbar or something like this. I played around with the 'kdialog --progressbar'. But I'm not familiar with dbus-commands to get the state of ffmpeg.

I changed the proposed name, and I also would like to have a progressbar, but that turned out to be rather difficult and is not included yet (I don't know if it's even possible actually)
