What OS are you using, Windows or Mac?
What format is the video?
What OS is your friend using?
If Windows, then just send the person the file. If you can play it on your computer, then they should be able to do the same.
If Mac, then just send the person the file. The Mac can play a whole bunch of video formats, especially with the addition of a piece of software called Flip For Mac.
Your video file may not need converting at all.
