Installed and self registered without problems on a WIn 8.1.2 Pro 64 bit system. A clean install without any other software.

A Chinese company with address in China F11, Baoli Building, Nanhai Boulevard, Nanshan District, Shenzhen, Guangdong P.R.China 518057 and an US address.

This claim seems to be realistic: Users of Tenorshare Video Converter Surpasses 24,856 Worldwide. Other companies claim to have sold millions...

A clear structured interface opens, you choose your media file and the target format. In the settings you change switch between high quality, standard and small size.

A claim 30X faster with NVIDIA® CUDATM, AMD and Intel Core. could not be verified. 30 times faster compared with??? There are no information within the program (settings) whether this acceleration is used or not. In my test the conversion speed is as always with other programs.

I selected a 33 sec MP4 Full HD video with 64 MByte and converted it a 9,9 Mbyte MKV video with the same resolution 1920x1080. The conversion was done within one minute.

If you have selected your input you can trim, crop, watermark or add a subtitle file.

This is done without problems, works as it should.

I have uploaded the result, so you can see the quality of the file. I took a video with very fine structures.

One of the many video converters. If you should not have any up to now, why not take this?

Uninstalled via reboot. I do not collect video converters like stamps.

OMG!

- Timecode in converted Video (source was camcorder mts-file). No way to get rid of it!
- Trimming is buggy
- No output-profils for video-editors (promised on their website)

No, thanks.

Ah ha, another video converter!!

Installed and registered on Win7-64bit without any problems. It looks like HD Video Converter Factory Pro 7.0 from the appearance.
http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/hd-video-converter-factory-pro-7-0/

For video converters, they always have mostly similar functions. So I will select the right one for stability and compatibility. I will keep HD Video Converter Factory Pro 7.0 since it also used as a video downloader :)

Tested this against my usual converters.

I found it far slower than the more GPU optimised converters and even slower than some freebies without it.

The default output folder was a drive that didn't even exist.

The drive/folder navigation has a very out of date interface.

Reasonable choice of output options and settings.

H265 will be the in thing to add to the latest converters, so would need to be in such a paid product to appeal more over others.

All in all, not one that stands out at all I'm afraid and rather disappointing.

#2: "...No output-profils for video-editors (promised on their website)"

Ideally you Don't Convert video before you import it into your video editing software -- the main reason to do that is if your editing software won't accept your video as-is. Every time you re-encode video you'll lose a [hopefully just a little] bit of quality, so the best solution if your editor won't accept your files, is to get better editing software. When that's not possible and you have to encode an intermediate video file, encode it to a lossless format so you lose the bare minimum. Unfortunately that means you don't want to use Any ffmpeg-based converter, because they do not offer a lossless format.

That said, video files in a lossless or near lossless format are often huge [e.g. hundreds of GB for 1080p] -- if you can't handle that due to hardware limitations, mpg2 at the highest bit rate the software allows may be the best alternative.

#3: "A claim 30X faster with NVIDIA® CUDATM, AMD and Intel Core. could not be verified. 30 times faster compared with??? There are no information within the program (settings) whether this acceleration is used or not. In my test the conversion speed is as always with other programs."

If you or anyone else wants to verify if transcoding or converting video uses your graphics hardware, download & run the free & portable GPU-Z software -- it will show you if the GPU is doing anything, similar to the way Task Mgr. can show you how hard your CPU is working.

Speed transcoding is effected by the size of the input & output video frames, because all that data has to be read, then written, which means that how fast your system can read & write that data from/to your hard drive(s) matters as well. The job will take less time than using a faster rather than slower CPU of course, but if you look at the video-related benchmarks in CPU reviews, you'll see that the CPU's frequency or speed isn't all that matters.

Graphics processors [the GPU] function differently than CPUs, so can do certain things faster. Do note that when it comes to video encoding &/or conversion, that doesn't mean better by any means -- the best you can hope for is the same quality you can achieve using your CPU alone. So there are two basic approaches -- go purely for speed, with quality taking a back seat, or try to divide the work up between the CPU & the GPU, using the GPU only where it shines. Going the 2nd route can be incredibly tricky, and mileage varies to say the least, being based on your hardware, the software you've got installed, & the developers' code.

There are apps [Cyberlink's Expresso comes to mind] that focus purely on speed, using the GPU as much as possible converting video, & when it comes to speed, assuming your graphics hardware cooperates, these ffmpeg converters can't touch them. If however you want to focus purely on quality, speed goes out the window, as software usually does more calculations over multiple passes. That takes too much time for most people, so again these converters compromise, seeking out some middle ground. Do check the final quality carefully though, & it doesn't hurt to check the encoded file's specs with the free Media Info either -- in the race to beat the competition it's not unheard of for a converter's developer(s) to set the quality levels very low, &/or skip some encoder features that increase quality, both because they can speed up encoding.

#6: "Thanks GOTD for this offer. But I don’t understand why paid video converter tools’ necessary as u can find so many free alternatives,just say Handbrake. Besides, many merchants also provides free converters too, for example:
Freemake Free video converter... Any video converter... Winx free video converter... and so on."
.
1st off, as is often pointed out, there is no shopping cart or checkouts here at GOTD. ;)

2nd, as you pointed out there are several free apps... Why? Why not just one free video converter? If they were all the same, why would anyone in their right mind bother writing a 2nd when the 1st does everything that could be hoped for?

Instead it's the same as coffee or tea or, well, candy bars -- you can take whatever or you can have favorite brands, it's up to you, but there are most always differences.
