    Good video conversion software?

    Hi All

    Was wondering if anyone could recommend a good, easy to use video conversion software on a windows 32bit platform for people with little to no PC experience?

    Your input would be very much appreciated!

    SUPER &copy

    The website is a bit like stabbing yourself in the arm while listening to the spice girls. Make sure you download super, and not the AVS converter that's advertised on the site.

    Agree that ffmpeg is the way to go, but not without adding a frontend - as it is a command-line program.

    Try ffe, which is a Windows GUI for ffmpeg - http://corz.org/windows/software/ffe/

    I
    f you have a mac available, ffmpegX is what I use for pretty much all my conversion needs.

    Definitely one of the best audio/video converters. Why would anyone willingly use SUPER© when there are plenty of free and far superior alternatives like FreeMake? The C stands for crap!
