Great tool that’s really outperformed the other options I could find as concerns converting digital video files from one format to another. Been using their free version. Bit slower than some but the resulting video it creates is far more portable in that it is encoded in a fully standards compliant manner. A lot of other converters I’ve been using create converted video quickly but require very specific codecs to play back.
