Daniusoft Video Converter Pro

Daniusoft Video Converter Pro not only produces excellent-quality video conversions between nearly all known codecs, but also extracts the audio stream of any DVD and video file, rips your DVDs into lighter and more portable formats, and offers you some useful editing functionality, such as joining and cutting videos, taking snapshots, or adding effects, watermarks, and subtitles.

To make things easier for all kinds of users, the program comes with a wide range of extremely useful conversion profiles. These are grouped not only based on the format, but also on the device that you will be using with the converted video - consoles, portable players, mobile phones, etc. Thus, you have specific settings created for your iPod, iPhone, iPad, Nokia, Motorola, Blackberry, MS Zune, or Creative ZEN, just to name a few of the best known brands. This professional video converter provides support for HD videos, and all the HD versions of the best known devices (like the Apple range of HD-compatible products) are also represented here with their specific profiles. It is also important to note that regardless of the profile you may choose, you can always use the program's Advanced Settings dialog to make all the necessary adjustments to any of the video and/or audio encoding values.

As a bonus, you will also have access to some editing tools that will allow you to enhance and/or adjust the brightness, contrast, and saturation levels of the output image. Its two-panel preview window will play both simultaneously, thus letting you compare the original image with the edited one. Cropping, clipping, adding a watermark or a subtitle stream, are some of the other changes you can apply to your converted videos.

Finally, I think you should know that Daniusoft Video Converter Pro is capable of decrypting any DVD and of removing the DRM protection of some video and audio files (WMV, WMA, ASF, M4A, etc.) to allow you to back up your video collection.
