Extensoft Video Converter – Freeware Video Converter & Editor August 26, 2009 by Q
Lately I was toying a lot with videos, as this seems to be the next step online. While it’s nice once done, many times you have to dabble with different video formats and other stuff you need to edit. Enter Extensoft Video Converter, this little freeware is, in fact, one of the best free video converter tools I’ve found – it’s simple, works great and is very functional. And it implements the M$ Office Ribbon, which makes this one of the few applications I’ve seen out there to do so.
It lets you to convert, split, merge and edit your video files. It has support for a wide variety of video formats, from AVI to FLV and Hi-def videos (MTS) captured with new HD cameras. I use it and it seems it’s gonna stay on my PC for the long run. I still have to check finer details, but if you want a one-stop no fuss Freeware video editor/converter, this is the one to go.
