iMyMac Video Converter

There's something for everyone when it comes to video editors, and there's hardly anything new to innovate. Mainstream solutions already offer anything you'd want out of a video editor, but if you're looking for alternatives, rest assured that you're not starved of choice.

iMyMac Video Converter is a video editor that seeks to double as a video converter: it's got an intuitive, accessible interface, replete with easy-to-reach functions that make for a smooth workflow overall. Do not be fooled by the name: this is cross-platform software that can be used quite reliably as a video editor.

Per its name, the tool offers video conversion capabilities. Users can convert their footage into multiple sources, with widely-used extensions like .mp4, .mov, .avi, .mkv, and so on, being supported. An audio converter is also available for use, and tweaking the sound quality by adjusting the bit rate is openly accessible.

As such, if you just want to quickly convert your content to a certain extension, the program gets straight to the point. Video editing is much the same, in the sense that the options and functions pertaining to manipulating one's footage are immediately within reach.

Among the functions geared towards video editing, the Filter/Effect section allows users to adjust their video's luminance and contrast levels, as well as apply several filters onto the footage. Background Music allows one to easily attach a sound file for background audio in their clips.

Interestingly, the 3D Effects panel allows users to convert their footage into 3D. Various anaglyph and split screen options are available, so feel free to experiment.

Users dealing with high resolution, storage-heavy video files will appreciate the Compression function, which allows one to tweak the clip's bit rate, as well as designate a level for the compression algorithm.

iMyMac Video Converter is both a converter and editor: while more advanced users might find it to be lacking in some areas, this 2-in-1 solution can nevertheless work surprisingly well for casual users.
