From Jacek Pazera:
Pazera Free FLV to AVI Converter is the free application that converts Flash Video files (FLV, SWF) to AVI or MPG (MPEG-1, MPEG-2). FLV files are commonly used in the Internet by YouTube, Yahoo Video and other video services, but hat files are not supported by Windows Media Player and other popular media players. To display FLV video you need to convert that file into more popular format, such as AVI or MPG.
The program has a number of predefined settings (profiles) specially designed for novice users, while more advanced users can customize video and audio encoding parameters used by encoder: audio and video codec, audio and video bitrate, audio track to convert, fps, sampling frequency, resolution, volume, deinterlacing, and other. The application interface is very simple and user-friendly. To convert flash video files, just drag & drop them into the main window and click the CONVERT button.
What's new in this version: Version 1.6 includes the following improvements:
- New version of the FFmpeg that supports the latest versions of the x264, LAME, XviD and other encoders.
- New version of the MediaInfo library.
- Added ability to set the number of encoding threads using the x264 encoder.
- Changed the default video codec from XviD to H.264/MPEG-4 AVC (x264).
- Fixed a list of a video bitrates.
- Improved matching of encoding parameters with automatic settings.

"LOADED WITH TROJANS AND MALWARE; YOU ARE WARNED!"
Version: Pazera Free FLV to AVI Converter 1.5
Pros
used it once
Cons
Did an AVG routine scan after loading and found at least 5 unauthorized add-ons and plug-ins as well as 5 trojan horses. Upon removal, AVG again popped up to help in a removal Pazera was resisting. This software has been fully hijacked and is extremely dangerous.
Summary
I wouldn't have taken the time to join CNET if I wasn't very concerned about other who may consider downloading this software. It is full of trojans, malware and resists removal. Don't mess with it!

"Came with too many adware!"
Version: Pazera Free FLV to AVI Converter 1.5
Pros
I found nothing useful.
Cons
- Gave me errors when I tried to convert SWF to AVI
- Installed several adware
- Change homepages for all browsersSummary
Absolutely terrible.

"Installer required additional download files"
Version: Pazera Free FLV to AVI Converter 1.5
Pros
Unable to install
Cons
I received the following message when installation the software "Sorry, the files could not be downloaded. Click 'Retry' to try downloading the files again, or click 'Next' to continue installing anyway." and hence was unable to install the program
Summary
Unable to install.
-
"Excellent program."
Version: Pazera Free FLV to AVI Converter 1.5
Pros
A fully functional program that will convert full movies. Unlike some here (Xilisoft), it doesn't limit you to 3 minutes.
Cons
Haven't found any yet.
Summary
This is one program I'd definitely purchase. The software developer realizes that a program needs to be used and tested by a person before they would even consider buying it. You cannot get the feel of a program in 3 minutes.

"Doubt about security"
Version: Pazera Free FLV to AVI Converter 1.5
Pros
Haven't been able to try it, so....
Cons
Trend Micro Office Scan pops up a virus warning at beginning of installation procedure. I have cancelled installation.
Summary
If it's safe, tell Trend Micro so.
It it's not, I was right to cancel installation. -
"Great for the technologically challenged"
Version: Pazera Free FLV to AVI Converter 1.5
Pros
I've used a previous version n converted 100's of videos - just using the default settings. Does a great job. Kind of a processor hog, but I'm running a 1.6 ghz processor, so I let it convert overnight! This version has many more formats to convert to. You have the OPTION to not install the crap people are complaining about - un-check a few boxes and click "DECLINE" a couple times and you get what you want without the crap you don't want! Easy enough for me - Great program for FREE!
Cons
If you don't pay attention during the install, you get extra crap you don't want... the guy gotta make $$ somehow!
Summary
Great for the technologically challenged!! Just PAY Attention during install!!

"This product acts like a virus"
Version: Pazera Free FLV to AVI Converter 1.5
Pros
There are no pros to this application, This stupid review dialog required I enter something. I would recommend the CNET programmers allow 0 character answers for cases like this.
Cons
This application made modification to my set of home pages in Chrome and added plugins to my browser. I immediately uninstalled it, removed the plugins, removed the links it added to my home pages, and started a virus scan.
-
"Lack of content--"Permission denied""
Version: Pazera Free FLV to AVI Converter 1.5
Pros
Seems to be well made and has many options allowing for a variety of different conversions.
Cons
None with the program itself...just the complete lack of convertible content on the internet these days. the files I've found all seem to be freely distributed, but you can not change the format rendering the files unusable.
-
"Added bloatware / scamware to my browser"
Version: Pazera Free FLV to AVI Converter 1.5
Pros
It did a fine job of converting a video to mp3 (even if it was technically a lossy conversion)
Cons
I wasn't notified or given an option about two stowaway programs that installed alongside the video converter. One was a SUREGUARD PRIVACY DETECTOR or something similar. It tried to tell me that google docs was a potential threat. Another was a CHROMESPEEDUP nonsense that claims to speed up your page loads, but was most likely also spyware/adware.
I immediately removed the extensions using Chrome's extension manager and I removed all three programs using the Windows Program Manager. If I need to rip audio from a video in the future I will find another tool, or stick to googling tutorials for programs I trust like Audacity or Avidemux.Summary
It does what says, but it's loaded with unadvertised spyware.

"Nerdy user interface, but it works!"
Version: Pazera Free FLV to AVI Converter 1.5
Pros
Does what it says.
No Ad banners.Cons
Unfriendly user interface, but hey, unless your using a Mac, there's nothing much to complain.
Slowly converting a movie to it's completion.Summary
Slow non-ads nerdy converter that works!
