Any Video Converter Pro Overview
Any Video Converter Pro is notable too due to its ability to convert FLV files (Flash video), which is a popular video format for such video resources as YouTube, NicoVideo and MetaCafe. By the way, the program supports importing videos from the above-mentioned sites too.
Though the program easily copes with video files, it doesn't support converting audio files. Any Video Converter does not provide a wide variety of output options, but it includes all the basics that are associated with such popular media players, as Zune and iPod.
It includes options for WMV with Windows Media 9 and 8 codices and AVI with MPEG or XVID codices. The video size of the output file can be adjusted to fit a 2.5 inch screen of your media player or whole computer screen.
As popular media players do not play VOB, RM and MOV files, Any Video Converter does not support these formats as outputs. The users are also unavailable to adjust the video output size when selecting converting to iPod and limited in adjusting dimensions of the video on the MP4 selection. Thus this software cannot be recommended to Mac users.
Features
Any Video Converter has a YouTube import tool that allows importing videos with copying and pasting the URL into Any Video Converter. It also provides an ability to adjust stop and start tomes, audio and video codices, audio and video bitrates, frame rate and sample rate (though video's contrast and brightness cannot be adjusted, which is supported by some of other products in this category).
It is also expected that in future versions Any Video Converter will also offer merging multiple files into one file and include editing tools.
Any Video Converter is easy-to-use, as all of its options are labeled clearly and visible in the upper right-hand corner. The program also displays only compatible files when you want to import information from your hard disk or anywhere else. Any Video Converter has its output profiles organized according to player or device like Sony PSP, Apple iPod, Microsoft Xbox 360 and so on. The developers tried to make the product easy for novice users, who often have little or no knowledge of video theory or file formats. They just need to find their compatible device and click "convert".
That makes the user interface also more intuitive. All the conversions you've made before are saved on the left side of the screen in specific folders and also filed into default folders, which can be found in most cases in "Documents" section on your computer.
Users appreciate the fact that all the necessary options and features of video converter are located on screen. Advanced features are placed on the lower right-hand side on the screen and can be easily adjusted with drop down boxes.
Any Video Converter has a built-in help manual, email support and short tutorial online-guide. The program's help cannot be called as extremely impressive, but most answers can really be found in the help manual, and those who've faced specific troubles can expect the support will answer on theirs’ e-mails in about a day. It is expected that the website will also have supplemental video converter help manual and FAQs.
Conclusion:
Any Video Converter is a little yet powerful program, which converts movies of several file types into files compatible with your media player. And though it cannot play and convert audio files, it will be an excellent solution for novice users.
