Videos are something we all enjoy watching, but the plentitude of available devices that can playback videos is so big, that you never know what format to have them saved in. XFreesoft Video Converter is a program that you can use to encode media files between various formats, including MP3, VOB, MKV, ASF, AVI, and FLV.

The interface of the application is simple and intuitive. Media files can be imported by using the file browser or the "drag and drop" method. Batch processing is supported. In the list, you can check out the name, duration, target format, and name of each file. Once you specify the output profile and destination, you can proceed with the conversion process. Also, you can configure audio and video settings when it comes to the resolution, frame rate, bit rate, codecs, sample frequency rate, channels and others. You can preview clips, take snapshots, arrange videos in the list, as well as trim the clips by marking the start and end point.

Moreover, you can crop videos, apply effects and add watermarks. During the conversion process, you can check out elapsed and remaining time along with the current movie position, preview the clip, as well as pause or cancel the task. The video converter uses a moderate-to-high amount of system resources, can guide you to a step-by-step guide with snapshots online and didn't freeze, crash or pop up errors during our tests. The image and sound are kept at a very good quality.

In a world full of video converters that are a dime a dozen, XFreesoft Video Converter may not necessarily bring anything new to the table, but it doesn't fall behind either. This makes it a good application to take into consideration when you need a quick video conversion.
