This is slightly improved from last time. A lot of the comments on the previous giveaway were wrong, you can change the output parameters for each file type, and "original" is generally an option. This is just another FFmpeg front-end, almost certainly in violation of FFmpeg's license (only the About box even mentions FFmpeg). The only conversion that would really interest me would be H.264. I tried converting an HD MPEG-2 to H.264 and every media player I tried, even VLC, indicated a problem with the output file and wouldn't play it.

Another free alternative is Format Factory, It converts everything. Also has video stitching/separating and cropping software among other things. Although it's supposed to be compatible with windows 7, I can't get it to run even in compatibility mode. Otherwise it's a great program. Another alternative, Apowersoft streaming video recorder, grabs video's off sites such as You Tube among others. It comes with a built in converter that is very fast and seems to work great.

Installed on XP 64 Pro fine.. runs well. Controls are reasonably good. Tried it out with rmvb format, converting to avi.... ran smoothly and relatively fast. It works with mkv, for which, kudos to you. however it does not seem to be able to convert TO mkv.. ahh, well.. one step at a time.
I see a couple formats which are virtually abandoned, lol well, why not.
All and all, a decent one. Lou.

As with the last "Nuclear Coffee" offering, this is simply a graphical shell over an open source command-line utility (ffmpeg in this case) and, as before, they (and giveawayoftheday.com) are blatantly violating the open source utility's license by distributing it without providing either a copy of its license or its source code.

And, totally aside from the license issue, 25 bucks is outrageously overpriced for a supposed video conversion program where the freely available ffmpeg is doing all the actual video conversion.

A very nice program, but essentially useless.
It installed and registered just fine on Vista 64, but:
There's no way to enter a custom resolution. You can only pick a resolution from the list, and there's not much of a choice. If your mobile device has a 1:1 screen resolution then you're stuck, because there are no such choices.

I'd love to use this, but it simply doesn't have a very simple, but essential option of entering a custom resolution.
