Convenient and easy video converter

HandBrake, originally available only on MacOS, has recently made the transition to Windows under GPL license and provides anyone access for free.

HandBrake Features

In contrast with free video converters that add watermarks or only convert clips longer than 30 seconds, HandBrake doesn’t force users to upgrade to its paid version if they do not wish. Donating to developers is strictly optional and without taking this step they could continue enjoying this program for several more years without ever needing an upgrade option.

Even with its user-friendly interface, this program supports popular video formats including MPEG, FLV, AVI and OGV. Furthermore, rare codecs like those implemented by YouTube video hosting services (for instance X.264) may also be supported.

Features of the Program

• Convert video between popular formats without loss in quality;
• Work fully-fledgedly with multi-core processors (parallel coding);
• Ability to compress with no loss of quality at smaller file size for upload to Internet with slow connection speed (e.g. download to YouTube for use);
• Custom settings specifically dedicated for web optimized videos;
• OS compatibility are supported both 32 bit and 64 bit versions;
• High speed thread processing.
