Pros
It works! And there's no splash screens or other watermarking. So far so good. Better than FreeMake which now watermarks the entire video.
Lots of conversions options.
Cons
Watch out for the add ons at installation. Lots of serious junk there. Its sneaky because there are no obvious check marks to uncheck. But there is an underlined option that gives you the ability to stop it. I did a full virus scan with Avast after install and all was fine.
Options are much less intuitive than Free Make - but there's a lot of them.
Summary
This will do. Glad I took the chance to download it.

Pros
none - the file wasn't for the video converter.
Cons
The file that was downloaded wasn't even remotely associated with the application requested. It was cross checked against 3 updated virus scans, and was listed as worm. DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS CRAP.
Summary
It's a virus.

Pros
Seems to be great when your file's from a good source. Not so much if the captured or digital media's in any way flawed or corrupted. Very easy to use - does not require that much advanced knowledge of codecs, though every bit you learn or research is helpful.
Cons
Consequently, this app does not analyze or help you to figure out in advance if there are problems before conversion - trial and error. Also will encourage you to pay the $9.99 annual subscription fee after each use. I think it's worth considering the annual fee if you use heavily.
Summary
Good starter app for people who want to get the right media format for their streaming devices, airplane or road trip traveling movies, etc. Contribute to the annual subscription if you're going to regularly use this for youtube or other podcast/broadcast media.

Pros
None - didn't download
Cons
Virus while downloading
Summary
It may be unfair to rate this as 1 Star since I didn't use it but that rating comes from trying to use it. This looked like what I needed but when I started the download my Antivirus kicked in and blocked the download, warning me it was infected with a virus. My antivirus cleaned and scanned my system and it didn't get thru so I am safe, but I am disappointed because this looked like a good product

Pros
Nothing, I cannot get it to work even with the simplest video.
Cons
I bought AVC Pro to convert DVDs to digital format so I can display them in my HDTVs through my home network. I have videos that are in DVDs between 1 and 2 hours.
The software takes quite a long time to convert a 1 hour video to MP4 (I am using the Samsung TV H264 Movie output profile). Sometimes the laptop goes into sleep mode and crashes the whole process so I have to restart again. FYI, I have 16 GB of installed RAM running the i7 core processor.
EVEN WORSE: I sent an email to their customer service address requesting help and they did not bother responding (I know they got the email as I received the automatic response promising their developers will get back to me)
Summary
Very frustrated after even paying for the Pro version. Waste of my money.

Pros
Great for downloading Youtube videos, easy to use.
Cons
They shove Chromium down your throat every time you update the software and make it harder and harder to opt out of adding the crap! Once downloaded it is a nightmare to get rid of.
Summary
Each time this software updates I am subjected to yet another assault of an unwanted Chromium browser install and malware install - I'm starting to wonder if it is worth the trouble. As others have reported above, this program is stuffed with CRAP that tracks your use and shoves unwanted crap programs on you with every update.
