Freemake Video Converter

Freemake Video Converter converts video from one format to another fast and efficiently.

If you need a convenient Windows tool for converting video files from one format to another, then Freemake Video Converter is a solid choice. This program is particularly effective for the user who has a video and simply wants it in a format that will play well on his or her device of choice.

Freemake Video Converter supports a wide range of input and output formats, including 3GP, AVI, MP3, MP4, and WMV. It can also read video directly from a DVD or Blu-ray disc and convert from that. Whether converting from disc or a file, the process is fast and efficient, but keep in mind that your performance may vary based on your CPU and available system resources.

The program also has a stylish user interface that makes it easy to find your way around. It’s even welcoming to novices because Freemake Video Converter uses profiles that really abstract the more complicated aspects of video conversion. Advanced users can; however, access finer control. In addition, this program isn’t limited to converting one video at a time and can handle file batches.

Freemake Video Converter also provides a built-in video editor. The editor is basic but provides features like crop, rotate, flip, and so forth. You can make these changes before converting. The editor also lets you create slideshows and music visualizations. The program also has a built-in tool to upload your finished creations directly to YouTube, but unfortunately, this feature can’t be extended to other video sharing services. Also, it’s worth mentioning that playback performance in the editor is spotty at best, and a program reboot may be required if it hangs when loading an image or other media.
