What online file converter do you recommend?

Does anyone have a good free file converter that you have downloaded from online?  I don't want to get stuck with some type of virus, etc.  Thanks!

Here's a small sampling of some video converters.
iFFmpeg
HandBrake
Permute
ReelBean
Movavi Video Converter
I've given all macupdate.com links.  Look around there and you will find others too.
Of all of these IMO iFFmpeg is one of the most flexible converters.

  • What external hard drive to you recommend to free up space on an old Macbook Pro?

    My Macbook Pro is approx. 5 years old. I have since gotten an imac, however would like to use my old Creative Suite 2 on the macbook. When I updated it to "Lion" - it denied access to my creative suite apps. I have since contacted Adobe, and they have given me a solution to get it up and running again, however, my startup disk is just about FULL. Therefore I can't upgrade or really even open more than one app without getting the warning pop up about getting rid of some files asap or risk malfunction of the laptop.
    What external hard drive do you recommend to get the most bang for my buck in terms of offloading a massive amount of photos to in order to be able to use the laptop again?

    Your picture folder would have to be 10 times larger and then it would be close to 1 TB in size.  I have an aphorism, 'one cannot have too much storage'.  If the bank account can afford it, follow Ralph's advice and do go for the larger storage drive.  Given enough time, you might just grow into it..
    Now there is an issue that you should consider.  Since these pictures will no longer be on your MBP, do you want to have them backed up?  If so, you then are going to need an additional HDD to store the backups.  All HDDs will eventually fail, you just do not know when.

  • Which .mts file converter do you use?

    I have a new iMac desktop (10.6.4) that I got for Christmas. I have a canon HD camcorder that records in .mts mode. I have spent hours upon hours to figure out the following:
    a) iMovie 11 will not transport .mts files
    b) The .mts files must be converted in order to be used on the mac
    With that said, which .mts file converter are you guys using? Everyone I found costs $35.00, and I don't mind paying the fee, but is there one that is better than the others? For instance, I have found iorgsoft, moyea mts, MTS converter (which I have downloaded and seems to work ok, but it's a trial version and you can only see the first minute of the video).
    Which one is the best? Is there a free option that will suffice?
    I want to transfer the files to .mp4 or whatever so I can upload into iMovie '11 and burn them to a DVD. Thanks everyone!

    Handbrake is free and will convert the many types of .mts files

  • What brand of printer do you recommend for my imac 27?

    What brand of printer do you recommend for my imac 27 from 2009?

    I bought a Hewlett-Packard M451dn color laser jet. I'm happy with it.
    I selected it after having a horrible experience with a low-cost Xerox color laser jet.
    The things I like the best:
    Fast warm-up time. No waiting around like solid-ink printers from Xerox have.
    No odor. Solid-ink printers have a smell like baked crayons.
    Very good print quality - real Postscript.
    Duplex printing (both sides of the paper)
    I connect to it wirelessly through my Airport; I connect an ethernet cable from the printer to the Airport then my Mac communicates wirelessly.

  • Web page video - what file type would you recommend?

    I've stood up a web page for selling things (house, musical instrument, chipper-shredder, rent an apartment, etc.) and would like to have a few videos included. The plan is to save the video on the server and not use hyperlinks to places like vimeo and youtube. For one thing, vimeo doesn't allow a basic member to use their site for selling things.
    A. Screen view size: I would like something, say, 2.5 to 3 inches high X whatever width the proportion would be (4:5 or 16:9), minimum.
    B. Resolution: Most of what I've recorded is in 1440CBR but reducing the quality to keep the file size small is VERY important. I'm not looking for Full Hi-Def, just something that gets the message across.
    C. It is very desirable for the visitor to be able to start viewing the video as soon after clicking on the hyperlink as possible. If they have to wait for a few MegaBytes to be downloaded they probably won't stick around. Also, there will be no advertising on my web page which should be nice.
    D. The file format should be viewable by both Macs and PCs. Questions:
    1. Is *.mp4 H.264 the most universal format?
    2. Should I "Share" to a QuickTime format and assume the PC users will have QuickTime on their machine?
    3. FCPx uses the "Share" menu in order to Export. What would you recommend for a Share setting (file type) so it will do what I would like to do?
    Is there anything I left out that would be good to know???
    Editorial comment: This has been a total struggle.
    My resources:
    FCPX 10.0.3 (have not updated yet. Waiting until the dust settles)
    MacBook Pro Core 2 Duo 5,1 2.53 8GB memory Lion
    MacPro 1,1 Lion
    Passport drive: 1TB for video storage
    MacBook White 1,1 (for email and Internet surfing) 10.6.8

    Hi again,
    I'm happy with the Audioengine 5 which I have on the computer desk about 2' ~ 3'
    away so I'd call them 'near field'. You should have a shelf on your desk so the speakers are roughly at your head height.  I'm also using a 12" Velodyne powered sub in this set-up which sits on the floor to my right.
    here are some 'home' studio designs:

  • What kind of camcorder would you recommend for FCE HD 3.5?

    Hello everyone,
    I'm very new here and have been trying to search for the answer to my question without having to bug anyone, but now I am under the gun, as it were.
    I need to purchase something within a week and a half and would truly appreciate suggestions from anyone here. Here are a list of my questions and I hope you all will be kind of enough to help me. Thank you in advance.
    1- I would prefer a camcorder that records to a DVD, but if tape is way better, please let me know.
    2- I see that FCE does not support AVCHD. What other pitfalls are there to avoid in purchasing a camcorder that is compatible with FCE HD?
    3- My dream is to have a camcorder that can record in 24p, but can't seem to determine whether FCE HD can support it. Please help!
    4- Am willing to pay more for CCD sensor range - is this helping?
    5-Would like to shoot in 16:9 ratio and with lines of resolution of 720 and higher, this possible with FCE?
    5- With the questions above...what camcorder would you recommend?
    I know some of the camcorders that have these features are ranging from $900 to over $1,000 but would consider it a good investment for things I would like to do in the future.
    I hope the information I've given is enough for you all to give your suggestions. Thank you again.

    They are not bad - just unsuitable for FCE and all good editing programs.
    There are several totally different kinds of Digital Video - many people mistakenly think all "digital" is the same.
    DVD, Flash Memory or Hard Disk camcorders produce video in a version of the MPEG format.
    FCE etc. only handles video in the DV or QT format which is totally different from MPEG.
    One analogy would be to buy a diesel powered car and then find that all the filling stations in your area only had petrol (gasolene) pumps. Your car would be pretty useless !
    The only way MPEG can be used in FCE is by converting it to DV or QT which wastes time or money and results in slightly reduced quality.
    All these cameras are produced for the mass market (where the money is), to be used by people with no knowledge or interest in film-making or editing.

  • What html video converter do you suggest?

    What converter would you suggest for me to use to convert .avi-files to the three formats needed in Edge movies?

    Adobe Media Encoder for mp4, and Firefogg (Firefox extension) for ogg/webm.
    Note that only mp4 and either ogg or webm (not both) are required for widest HTML5 browser support.

  • What music files types can you add to itunes?

    I download alot of different music files types.  I just want to know what music files I can add to itunes.

    John Lockwood wrote:
    Apple Lossless works on the majority of the worlds portable music players which of course are Apple devices
    Apple Lossless works not only in iTunes on both Mac and Windows but also can work in dbPowerAmp, WinAmp, Foobar2000, VLC, XBMC aka. Kodi, and even Windows Media Player and Windows Media Center. (Yes I am aware FLAC also works in all of those except iTunes.)
    Apple Lossless is free open-source code like FLAC, but arguably less likely to be subject to a random Patent Troll attack as it is backed by the might of Apple's lawyers.
    Apple Lossless is identical quality to FLAC.
    You can of course convert between FLAC and Apple Lossless and back again with zero loss of quality.
    My point with all of the above, is that there is no need to be so hung up about FLAC anymore.
    (Full disclosure for our readers:  My colleague John and I have this same conversation every once in a while.)
    John - You are exaggerating the degree to which ALAC is accepted outside of Apple.
    Although Winamp and WMP can be modified to play ALAC, the normal unhacked versions that most of us have cannot.
    Yes of course you can convert between ALAC and FLAC with no loss of quality.  That is what lossless means. 
    In lossless music retailing, FLAC is very common.  ALAC is rarely seen.  Even Apple's own iTunes Store does not sell songs in ALAC format.

  • What Flash plug-ins do you recommend?

    Hello,
    I have been using Red Giant's Text FX plug-in for Flash to
    easily create text FX for a while now. It's a discontinued product,
    however, and it won't work in Flash CS3.
    What plug-ins do you recommend for Flash?
    I've downloaded an app called Text-Osterone. It's not a
    plug-in, but is a standalone product that outputs Flash.
    I've also found PJ Components, but I haven't checked it out
    yet. It doesn't seem like they offer a demonstration version and I
    don't know if I want to pay money before trying it.
    Thanks!

    The dpi is not relevant, just the actual pixels. If you have Photoshop CS3 then create the project at 1440X1080 using 1.33 PAR just like your video.
    If not, use 1920X1080 and Premiere Pro will deal with it.
    You could make your title in After Effects and either use Dynamic Link to bring it into Premiere Pro, or export it as a Quicktime Animation with the alpha channel and use that in Premiere Pro.

  • What brand of RAM do you recommend with this board?

    Hey guys!
    I wanted to know if any of you guys could recommend RAM that would be good for this system.  I am running a custom water cooling kit so I am planning of pushing the processor to 4ghz+.  The problem I have right now is that I cant get the RAM to run past 410mhz, and thus it is limiting my processor FSB to 205.  Also I am pretty sure this ram is limiting my video card tremendously.  Also what speed would be suitable?  Could I go with a good ddr433 dual channel kit?  Or should I plunge to ddr500?  I tried searching these boards but its hard to find info about what people recommend about ram.  I was mainly hoping to learn from everyones experience.
    As a side question, my video card is performing below average.  I have the PCI latency set to 64 and agp aperture size is at 128, are these settings good?
    Currently I am running:
    875p Neo LSR
    Prescott 3.4ghz
    Asus Ax800XT PE
    256x2 DDR400 2-3-3-6 Geil Golden Dragon in dual channel
    Ultra X-Connect 500W PSU
    Thank you in advance!

    I scrapped it all.  As long as you buy a good brand you'll be ok. Corsair is probably the best.  235x17=3995. So pc 4000 would cover you to 4.0 easy, provided you get there. Try to get the lowest latency ram you can afford, other than that just make sure its a good brand. Corsair, Ocz, G-skill and maybe Geil?.

    Edit*#4
    Until you buy faster ram, you can set a divider to see how high the proc will go.

  • What AME export settings do you recommend for preview? CS4

    I've got about 30 minutes with lots of graphics. I just want to make sure it flows well as a whole before exporting finals to H.264 and MPEG2-DVD. In other words, I want FAST!
    Thanks.

    Paul,
    Sonicfire Pro has a media player embedded. This allows one to have both the Video and the Audio from the PrPro Project, so that they can play that, and make changes to the SmartSound music, i.e. Scoring.
    As nothing really exists in PrPro, until one does an Export, there is not a way to get, say a Clip in the Source Monitor into Sonicfire. Now, let's take an example, where you have used the Source Monitor to Trim a Clip. You have an Instance of it on the Timeline, with those In & Out Points set. It could be alone, or somewhere between other Clips. As there are a few more steps with the latter, we'll choose that - the Instance of the Clip is between other Clips, but all you want to do is add music, from Sonicfire Pro/SmartSound to THAT Clip.
    In PrPro, set the WAB (Work Area Bar) over that Clip, and then Export. For my SD Projects, I just use DV-AVI, and make sure that Recompress is unchecked.
    Import that DV-AVI into Sonicfire Pro, and it will show up in the player.
    Play that file, to get the feel, if you have not done so, in PrPro.
    Select the SmartSound composition and drag it to the Sonicfire Pro Timeline.
    If it's multi-track, you will have a ton of options on what you can do with that composition.
    Adjust the Duration of the music to match the AV file.
    Edit that music in Sonicfire Pro.
    Export as PCM/WAV @ 48KHz 16-bit.
    Import that PCM/WAV into PrPro and position it on an Audio Track with the proper channel-count, that matches your Clip.
    Throw away the DV-AVI "reference file," when you are satisfied.
    There are several tutorials on the Sonicfire Pro - Scoring Edition, that might be useful in explaining how the above is done, plus all of the power available. If you have not seen them, I strongly suggest that you do, as they will give you a lot of ideas on using Sonicfire Pro.
    Good luck, and hope that helps,
    Hunt

  • What Illy CS4 book would you recommend for the beginner to grow with?

    Hello All,
                 I am looking for a good illustrator cs4 book for the beginner to grow with.
    I have read reviews on amazon but thought I might ask the pros.
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

    The instructions that ship with the program: The Help menu.
    I know it's boring, but if you want to learn a new program, the most expedient way is to work through the provided manual, cover to cover. Don't just read it, actually perform the operations it describes.
    Third-party books almost universally involve these downsides:
    They are expensive.
    They are incomplete. They try to walk a fence-edge between rank beginner and intermediate user; between being merely a too-wordy reiteration of the Help files and next-level techniques for the more experienced user. The reason is obvious: the goal is to sell to as wide a range of users as possible. The result is often unsatisfying: They can't possibly include everything in the Help files, so they leave gaps for the beginner. But they feel compelled to appeal to beginners, so the experienced user has to weed through a bunch of entry-level bulk, just to get to the "juicy stuff" he's interested in. He pay's 100% price for about 15% of the content.
    The are inefficient. They are full of unnecssary verbiage attempting to be clever, cute, hip, friendly, and thereby supposedly more "approachable." Most fail miserably at this, and the result is you have to read through endless passages of such original content as "this will knock your socks off" and "this is awesome" when what you really need is "just the facts, ma'am." The Help files fall under the stylistic guidelines of technical documentation: They adhere to "just-the-facts, ma'am."
    They are short-lived. They go quickly out-of-date, which is one of the reasons why they are too expensive: They have to make their money quickly after release.
    I'm not saying don't buy any. I have a small fortune's-worth myself, all but a dozen or so of which I wish I had never bought. With the money I wasted on them (plus interest), I could buy a new Honda Fury. I'm just saying do the included documentation--however painful--first. And keep doing it for new features when new versions are released. That will get you there the quickest, because it will lay the necessary foundations of overall interface scheme and basic object principles. Then, when you have that understanding, look only for books that are targeted toward an at-least intermediate level user. That way, your money will be spent, but it will be better-invested.
