I gave this a 9/10 for ease of use as setting up all the options can be confusing. Once set though the wizard makes this a really easy and powerful tool.
My main reason for leaving a comment was the upgrade option which I finally bit the bullet and did. The process is simple and if you are registered before the upgrade you still will be after.
The version numbers however need a lot to be desired. I went from 2.57 to 2.521 (which looks like a downgrade) but should really be read as 2.5-7 and 2.5-21 (21 > 7 so all is sweet).
I use this tool mainly to convert NTSC to PAL and to compress the bitrate to squeeze more onto a CDR (in the old days) and now DVDRs. The batch mode allow you to set up multiple conversions and let them run over night. When finished your machine can optionally be shut down.
On a dual PIII 800 with 1Gb ram (and it can be configured to use multiple CPUs of P4 HT technology) I process 45min of video with 5.1 audio from NTSC to PAL in abount 90 min.
Definitely worth a look in. |
