Videomaster for Windows

Used Videomaster for Windows?

Editors’ Review

Download.com staffJuly 17, 2009

An integrated media viewer differentiates Videomaster from some of its video-conversion rivals. The installation takes some time. After loading an AVI, MPEG, or Flash video file, you select the format into which you want to convert it, whether it's AVI, Flash, or an animated GIF. Before starting the conversion, you can view the file through the program. Minimal editing functions let you grab and convert a scene from a longer clip. You select the location for the converted output, and pick from among 10 audio and video encoders. If you abort the conversion, the program makes an output file anyway. The conversion doesn't take much time, although the output file quality can be somewhat diminished. The program doesn't perform batch conversion, so professionals likely will need to look elsewhere. However, amateurs with a taste for Web video may find that Videomaster fits their needs.

Summary
This program may work, but you had better be an expert in CODECs. When you try to save a file, you will get a list of every video CODEC on your box - in my case, about 30. And the audio is the same - every audio CODEC will also show. But no matter what combination I try, I get "can't start compression", and it won't save. For $40, this program should be far more intuitive and fail-safe. For those of you with simple systems with few CODECs, maybe it will work better.. but those of you with complex audio-video setups should look to something that doesn't require a PhD in CODEC knowledge! My computer always knows which CODEC to invoke for any given file type, whether it's DVD encoding or whatever.. why can't this program do the same?

small, fast , simple to use. I'd add some feature to make marking more exact... also saving to avi can be comlicated because of selecting encoders.
