Freemake Video Converter is a simple program for Windows that gives users the ability to encode videos, audio files, images and DVD items to other extensions. It supports a considerable amount of media formats, including AVI, MP4, MPEG, WMV, MKV, FLAC and more.

Initial configuration

First of all, you need to add desired files to the queue. In order to do that, you can use either the drag and drop method or the in-built browser. What is more, you have the ability to view the thumbnail, total time, audio and video settings, as well as preview the clip in an external media player.

Once you have chosen and edited a preset, you may encode the imported files to MP3, Apple, DVD, Blu-ray and other profiles. Thus, you are able to adjust the size, width and height, video codec and frame rate. Similar to Fox Video Converter, it is possible to select audio channels, sample frequency rate and bitrate.

Operation

After you specify the output destination, you can start the conversion procedure. It is necessary to note that during the process you can visualize total progress and turn off the PC once the job is finished.

A standard task may take a while to complete, but that is due to the fact that the software focuses on maintaining and sound quality. It relies on a very high amount of system resources in a passive mode, and strains the computer when a procedure is being carried out.
