GVideoFix for Windows

User Reviews

• Waste of space

  GeaFmaN7/11/2007

  Pros

  I like how easy it is to uninstall as the features are so lacking!

  Cons

  I hate the fact that it requires you to download the file from googlevideo directly into the program. Yet while this is happening there is no progress bar or indication of how long or what speed or anything!!!<p>Also, I find it sooooo easy to just download the small .gvp file myself, open it in notepad, copy the URL part and then paste that into a download manager like flashget. There! AVI file downloaded fast!<p>Then the FREEWARE program called gvid2avi or something like that fixes it for playing in all media players. End of. This program is too much for too little and although it is free it is still rubbish in my opinion!

• Great idea for downloading videos from Google and playing them on your computer.

  alwcurlz11/19/2006

  Pros

  This software is easy to use and very simple which is what most people want! Just drag and drop...and watch! There is a support forum for the software and the author helped with some issues quickly! Good support!

  Cons

  You need to make sure you install DivX or you'll only hear sound and not video. This was not mentioned in the process of install or included with the program I downloaded.

• Fantastic tool for webmasters

  gderidet7/29/2006

  Pros

  When you download a Google video you only get a shortcut online. It's perfect if you are a simple user always connected to Internet, with a good working connexion. <p> <p>If it's not the case, or if you are a webmaster this amazing simple tool is a gem. Just drag the shortcut over the open program and that's it ! You get the whole video, completely Avi compatible. <p> <p>Very nice work !

  Cons

  None ! What can you want more ? Images ? You already get the video !

• A simple drag & drop app for converting Google videos to avi (Palm) format!

  NeilKalmanson7/15/2006

  Pros

  I can't believe the previous reviewer only gave this 2 stars! Its the easiest thing in the world to use, simply drag and drop the Google video you've downloaded (for Window/Mac) into it and it downloads the avi file that can be played on your handheld viewer (Palm, etc.) I've used it many times and have never experienced any problems. I was so excited about it's simplicity and quality, I immediately donated $5 to the developer. He's a student and sent me an email of appreciation and subsequently informed me about its update. If you enjoy Google video on your handheld, you will love this application.
