Perfect for DSLR .mov footage
SidneyTurnerMediaJune 5, 2012
Pros
Free Works fast Used by some pros
Cons
Has a glitched button and window. Still works but is a bit fiddky.
Summary
Works great and fast on my PC. Transcodes in real time (5min footage takes 5min to transcode) Does require a good bit of messing around to get settings right.I use with the Avid DNxHD codec and it converts the H2.64 into something VERY usable for video editing programs. Big/long files playback in realtime without having to 'render' them first in Sonyvegas/Premiere Pro. Philip Bloom (a professional director) himself uses this software although as he uses mac, he does not use the Avid codec.
Non-functional

Pros
No pros; it did not work.
Cons
I tried downloading different YouTube videos, but MPEG Streamclip always put over 20 videos in the queue, and failed to download any of them. I watched a tutorial on how to use this software, and it seemed pretty straightforward; I don't think I'm doing anything wrong!
Summary
Did not work - at least not on my Win 7 system.

Summary
MPEG Streamclip cannot open mpeg2 files without downloading-installing additional software.
Probably the best video transcoding freeware
JLMalaquiasJanuary 6, 2011
Pros
It knows a great number of codecs, it is easy to use, and it works fine most of the times
Cons
It is a little Apple-centric, requiring you to have QuickTime. Also, it had some problems with specific codecs. A bit slow
Summary
Great deal, considering that it's freeware. If you have a nasty codec compatibility problem, this may be the way to solve it.
Easy to use
sbtf064December 29, 2008
Pros
It is great for downloading youtube videos and is very easy to figure out. It is also very light on system resources.
Cons
You have to Quicktime in order for it to work.
Summary
exactly what I wanted, does the job, no extraneous junk
fubidouNovember 27, 2008
Pros
Does exactly what it says it will. No fussing about. Installs in seconds. Appears to be very light on CPU. Very easy to use, don't need to read the instructions (apart from the READ ME FIRST file - you do need to read that!)
Cons
Didn't let me drag the file into it. Had to go via the menu. But not a problem. READ ME FIRST file says you need to have QuickTime or equivalent installed to run the program. But that is not a problem - most people have this.
Summary
No flashy graphics, upgrade offers, doesn't assume it knows what I want, doesn't eat my CPU. Just converts the file from what it is, to what I want it to be. Saves it where I want it to be saved. Nothing more. Nothing confusing. The best kind of software out there.
It did the MP4 to AVI conversion I needed
janos_arrakoskiSeptember 28, 2008
Pros
Did what I expected it to do, converted the MP4 file to AVI while another well rated software (Format Factory) did not. I have not used it more yet.
Cons
Did not come with an installer, you can add the icons yourself but it's nice if the software does it for you. The conversion was quite slow. I have not used it more yet.
Summary
It needs more.
ZZDaikunAugust 27, 2008
Pros
Great for merging and converting certain movie files to other formats. Basic cutting is very precise. Wide variety of compression types.
Cons
Can't import AVIs, although it can export them (figure that out). Lacks a lot of useful editing features. Doesn't fix the sizes for multiple clips with different resolutions. Only merges clips in alphabetical order, for some reason.
Summary
It's still too young. If you just want to snag some quick clips from your favorite podcasts, this is right up your alley. However, if you're looking for a potential alternative to Windows Movie Maker, move along.
It Didn't do what it said
SENSUAL24July 21, 2008
Pros
nothing at all
Cons
I tried to use it and it just wouldn't work with my movies and they are the kind it is supposed to work with.
Summary
None of the features worked for me and there is no help file at all.
Converted very easily.
SistaWeotchApril 1, 2008
Pros
Got this because my still camera uses a codec that my video editing software doesn't support. Very easy to open files and convert to a workable format.
Cons
Wish there were batch conversion and output naming convention settings that would stay in memory, like with Irfanview. You can open multiple videos to convert at one time, but they seem to all get put in one final output video. If there is another output option, it is not obvious.<p>Also, the presets for output are not remembered from session to session. Once program is closed, you have to manually reload your last preset.
