In case you don’t know what a video converter is, let’s give a clear explanation of it first. A video converter is a program that converts videos to other video formats that can be played on certain devices. It is the direct digital-to-digital data conversion of one encoding to another. The common reason that people use a video converter is that their desired devices, like iPhone, iPad, Blackberry and Mac, etc, cannot support certain video formats that they want to watch on their devices. If you have this situation sometimes as well, you may need to consider getting a video converter.

A good video converter should be professional and powerful. It must have two main features: converting and editing videos. For video conversion, it should support multiple video formats. Currently there are several popular video types, such as MP4, MOV, AVI, HD, WMV, FLV, SWF, 3GP and MKV, etc. These video formats are supported by most devices but there is no one device that can play all video types. This is where a video converter is needed. With a video converter, it is easy to convert these formats mutually. This is the main function of a video converter.

Another main feature of a good video converter is that it enables users to edit videos. When people use a video converter to transfer videos, sometimes they want to customize or personalize the output videos, for example, adding watermark, adding background music and modify the effect. A good video converter should have all these features ready. Users should be allowed to merge several video files into one as well. For pro video editor, a good video converter means it offers the ability to let users extract audios of a video.

Apart from these two main functions, a good video converter should have a very user-friendly interface. This can give users a very clear instruction to start. It also should be fast. No one wants to wait for hours to convert one video. Support is also very imperative. If a video converter doesn’t upgrade for years, then it’s not a good one.

Currently there are numerous video converters on the market. Some are free and some are paid. We cannot say free means bad, but paid programs have more powerful functions. A good video converter can save huge time because of its super fast speed. It can also produce excellent quality videos. As we all know, during the video conversion, there are some losses. A pro video converter can decrease this loss and try to keep the original quality.
