Like the earlier Sothink giveaway (HD Video Converter) it seems very much designed for conversion into portable device formats (i.e. compressed video). No DV-AVI or HDV options.
May be useful for converting a problem clip to WMV, MOV or AVI for further processing.

The built in video converter is running at 145% cpu - help!

I tried using the built in video converter to make a .m4v video file compatible with imovie.
The process avconvert is running at 145% cpu and my fan is running at over 5000rpms to compensate. It has been ran for 20 mins and has done nothing with the file itself. I cancelled the conversion in the tool bar then had to force quit the avconvert process.
I am using a macbook pro, mid 2009
8gb ram (upgraded from original 4gb)
new 750gb HDD
osx 10.8.3 - upgraded 2 days ago from snow leopard
Processor - 2.53 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
Should this converter work on my mac?
Is my processor unable to support this feature?
Any suggestions for an alternative converter? (handbrake is flaky since the upgrade)

No, no error message came up. When I hovered the cursor over the icon it said it was creating a workflow but nothing actually happened. The converter didn't seem to be doing anything at all except cause the cpu to run high.
I should have said my CPU was reaching 95 degrees at the time but the heatsink was only at 54 degrees. I am concerned that running the converter would cause it to overheat.

What is the best free video converter i can download?

What is the best free video converter i can download to put dvd's on my ipod, and to change video files to be compatable with my ipod? Thank you!
Windows XP

Which application is the best for video converter?

Which MacBook Pro application is the best for video converter?

Docs to go is a bit more polished i think. It has been around awhile on other platforms and the sync is very well done. It works more as an extension of your desktop. You select the files you want to sync. They can stay where they are on your computer. If changes are made to either they update when you sync.
Quick Office allows you to move documents to and from your iphone and Any computer on any network as well as your iDisk if you have MobileMe. It has a server built in. You just enter the web address into any browser and you can see the folders on the iphone. It will work with Word and Excel fine. It is tricky editing a spreadsheet on such a small screen but it can be done.
Docs to Go has a little bit better editor.
I guess it depends on whether you want to be able to transfer files to a computer other than your own.
Hope that helps
Greg

Whats the best free video converter ?

I am sending out a small mov (DV) file to a a few dozen people (not clients as this is a free thing).
These people want to be able to convert this avi file down to a MP4 or other formats that will work fine on:
Mobile phones
Video frames
small portable data projectors
etc
What free video converter would you recommend to these guys?
I thought of AnyVideo Converter which is perhaps the most popular.
But I heard that AVC is dropping some features hoping people with upgrade to their pro version etc.
Han anyone got any comments on what free converter I can recommend to these people?
(These people will have Windows computers .... sorry ... :s )

I don't have any experience with Any Video and what it does with audio _ much less what it was doing for a 4 hour process. You could run it through MPEG Streamclip and change the sampling rate,
Or perhaps post this on the QuickTime forum.
Good luck.

What is the best FREE video converter?

i need it to be free. i spent all my money on the ipod and now because Apple wants to be cheep, I CANT WATCH VIDEO'S AT ALL!!! somebody help me

I had the same issue, however I used this program to transfer ...avi,mpg,wma..etc...;
http://www.videora.com/en-us/Converter/iPod/
I'm pasting this from the Videora site, the settings worked for me when others didn't, enjoy:
Configuring videora converter
0) Start Videora iPod converter.
1) Click setup in the left nav.
1.5) Click the profiles tab.
2) Click new profile.
3) Now, configure that profile:
profile name: ipod
in the video settings section...
mode: MPEG-4 > CBR
resolution: 320x240
passes: one
bitrate: 768 kbps (384 kbps also works)
framerate: 29.97 fps
in the audio settings section...
bitrate: 128 kbps
sample rate: Input
channels: stereo
4) Click apply to save the profile.
Now, you're ready to transcode.
1) Click convert on the left nav.
2) Click the transcode new video button.
3) Pick your source video. Mine was an AVI from a torrent.
4) Under quality profile, choose "ipod", the profile you created using the steps above.
5) Click start.
Now you're ready to get the video on your ipod
1) In iTunes, under the File menu, select add file to library. Find the transcoded one. By default, the transcoded videos pop out under the Videora install directory.
2) Drag and drop to your ipod.
Questions/observations:
1) I haven't been able to get H264 anything to work. Is it broken? How much smaller than MPEG4 is it?
2) 768 kbps video was about 400 megs/hour; 384 kbps video was about 231 megs/hour. I could readily see a difference in video quality.

What is the best freeware video converter?

I had been using isquint but it was discontinued. And, I understand that the code of isquint & visualhub has been released. The new snow leopard compatible converters(that I know) that came out of that code are redux encoder & videomonkey.
What is the best current freeware video converter?

"Best" is fairly subjective... I use MPEGstreamclip

What is the best Youtube video converter for Final Cut Pro?

I want to keep the quality of the video and import into Final Cut Pro to edit. What is the best way to get the video in the correct format?

I've used FastestTube
http://fastesttube.kwizzu.com/
usually this allows you to download the files as MP4 files in either 360p or 720p, or as FLV files
I would download as 720p MP4 & convert in compressor to prores, etc for FCP.

Last question for the day - Music Video

Hi,
I have been asked by a friend to do their music video for them. I understand while shooting they will be playing to the original recording but after a day of shooting and im back at my computer what is the best way to syc my clips to the master audio track? Is there a tutorial available on music video creating? I know I could sit there and bit by bit move the clip to match however I am hoping there is a tutorial on it some place on the net.
Thanks

Hi
Me just thinking
I would
• Make several full song recordings with my Camera (close-ups, full size etc.)
or use several Cameras (5 to 10 recordings)
Put the best Audio-uptake as a master Audio then add video clips to do the visual
part as rythmic and paced fast/slow enough to reflect the "Air" of the lyrics.
Know what I'm taking about - NO Not at all - just speculating.
(With several Cameras - all recording non-stop - this would be much easier in
FinalCut Pro and the MultiCamera function.)
Yours Bengt W

What is the best PRO video converter?

I use my Pro for work and I need to get video from my phone to my computer, but right now my computer wont support it. HELP!

You will want to go to download.com (which is cnet.com) and download a video player called VLC media player. It includes the playback codec for almost all video types.
It's a free software product, highly reliable.
hope this helped!

What is the best ipod video converter?

What is it?

Videora iPod Converter

Tony,
Yes, I've installed a lot of software from Give Away of the Day.I've never encountered any malware or spyware characteristics from any of the GAOTD's I've installed.
The whole point of the site is to provide, for free, commercial software but only on a single day.
From their FAQ:
Is GOTD a trial?
Every program we give away is not a trial. We provide you with full-functioning registered version of software titles.
There are two points you need to remember:
* you have to install AND activate/register the product according to instructions given in the readme.txt file attached to every GOTD package.
* it should be done while the giveaway offer for the software is still on (within 24 hours).
Still we do not provide you with the lifetime license in terms of the fact that our package can be used to install the program on giveaway date only. It means that you will not be able to re-install the program after PC crash or install the program on another PC after the giveaway day is over.
I personally take the view that anything I download from GAOTD is a 'souped up trial' and wouldn't incorporate anything into a workflow unless I was prepared to purchase the product in the event of a failure of the GAOTD version. I guess, from the software producers point of view, making their product free for a single day is a marketing cost and they hope to gain business from click-throughs and personal recommendations.
Generally they have a video related GAOTD a couple of times a month. I post details here if I think it may be of interest to the PRE community. Video conversion software is quite a common item on GAOTD (although many are simply phone, portable media or youtube converters that may be of limited use). The one I posted yesterday looks to be a much more advanced converter - sadly though I don't have any HD clips to test it with.
Hope this helps to explain the GAOTD model more clearly.
Please note that I do not have ANY connection with GAOTD.
Cheers,
Neale
