"Free convert video to any format in real time"

Overview

MacX Video Converter Free Edition is a free conversion package that can be used to solve many issues with movie and music files.

The software can convert between MP4, MKV, AVI, FLV, MPEG, and MOV movie files. The conversion process can switch between HD and SD formats to reduce the file size of movie files and movie clips ready for viewing on a smaller device like a gaming console, tablet or smartphone. Alternatively converted video files can be uploaded online as smaller files to save bandwidth.

Video files can be converted for playback specifically for certain devices like the iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus, iPad Air 2, iPad Mini 3, Apple TV 3, Samsung Galaxy Note 4, Samsung Galaxy S5 mini, Surface Pro 3, and PS4.

Movie files can also be converted to MP3 files with the audio stripped out for easier playback later in an audio file player.

A series of photos pulled from different sources can be combined into a single video which can be later saved as a MP4, MOV or FLV video ready to share with friends or on a YouTube channel.

Work with video to crop out or trim their shape and visual size. Add a protective watermark to indicate the true source of the recording. Change encoded information like frame rate, resolution, sample rate, bit rate, and more.

Installation

The installation completed without any issues.

There was no adware, toolbars, spyware or malware included with the setup package.

MacX Video Converter Free Edition requires Mac OS X.

Interface

The interface is professional and modern-looking. It has a handful of large toolbar buttons at the top-left side, and Internet and Sharing buttons to the right side.

Clips can be loaded in and their details are shown in the main left window. A destination location can be set for completed videos and slideshows in the area below the clip section.

On the right side is a small video preview window with user controls for playback. There are also a few settings in the bottom-right corner, along with the large, blue "RUN" button.

Pros

  • Convert videos between MKV, AVI, WMV, MOV, iMovie, FLV, MP4 and M2TS formats (some formats can only convert to certain other formats)
  • Videos can be converted to fit devices like iPhone 6, iPad Air, Samsung Galaxy Note 4, etc.
  • Change video quality from HD to SD quality to save space
  • Trim or crop video images to only show what is wanted
  • Add a watermark to video
  • Select images to use for a video clip
  • Extract audio from a video clip

Cons

  • None.

Alternatives

Handbrake (Win) is a video conversion package that is able to convert between formats, however it cannot remove copy protection from video content.

Conclusion

MacX Video Converter Free Edition is an impressive video conversion package that can handle most of the popular video formats and convert between them quickly.
