Quick Media Converter HD_4.5.0.2

This free program is a one-stop shop for video and audio conversion, complete with integrated media player, camstudio and batch conversion.

This really is a comprehensive conversion tool. Just a sample of the formats it can convert to and from include .flv, .avi, .mpeg, .mp4, .mov, .divx, .xvid and .hh264. With Quick Media Converter HD you can easily watch your favourite videos through your Xbox, Wii, PSP, PS3 and Nintendo DS.

There are a couple of different ways you can use Quick Media Converter HD. There’s a “easy mode” with preset parameters so you can get from import to conversion with as little as 3 clicks of your mouse. For the more technically minded there’s “expert mode”, where not only can you adjust video and audio settings, you can save your preferences and apply the same settings at the click of a button on similar video clips. There's also a third mode that enables you to convert in full HD with customisable options.

Pro's: Save your customised settings for experts, intuitive and easy to use presets for beginners, inbuilt media player

Con's: Can run a little slow, especially considering the name, also you need an external codec pack for the inbuilt media player to work properly

Conclusion: The only thing that brings this program down is the speed. Conversions can seem quite slow, especially when you’re doing big files. Apart from that, Quick Media Converter HD is a really great free converter.
