GOTSent is a video converter that can convert any MKV file to the MP4 format, making it perfectly suitable for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 game consoles.
It takes just a minute or two to figure out how to use the program, even if it doesn't come with a built-in help file, but the interface is pretty straightforward and well organized.
You first have to input the path of the source file and select the output folder, but then the hard part begins.
GOTSent comes with dedicated settings for each video to be converted, giving you the option to change both video and audio options.
You can for instance change the video track and subtitles, pick audio tracks from AC3, AAC, MP3, DTS and OGG, configure FPS, enable safe sync and Mux to VOB dedicated options.
In addition, GOTSent provides two separate features to split files larger than 4GB or adjust a given video fit on a DVD of 4.7 GB.
After that, just hit the “Convert” button and wait for the app to do its magic.
The conversion process goes reasonably fast, with an average to low footprint on computer resources. Older machines however may notice a minor slowdown in performance when converting large files.
All in all, GOTSent is a tool to try, especially when planning to watch videos on game consoles. But several improvements in key areas, including the interface, are a must do, that's for sure. Good thing it's a freebie, so giving it a shot isn't that hard.
