GetGo Video Converter

Nowadays, digital videos are available in all shapes and sizes and can be played almost on any multimedia device available on the market. The problem is making the video file compatible with that device and also reducing the size of the video file so as to make it fit in the small memory available on the devices. Besides that, a smaller video size is great for sending it as an email message or posting to a file sharing website, for sharing the video with the world. For all these problems there is one solution, GetGo Video Converter. As the name suggests, the software can easily convert videos between various formats and sizes, making you certain that you will always have the right video file for the right job.

The software installs quickly and without hassle and it can run on any version of Microsoft Windows. The system requirements are higher than usual, because the program involves video processing, but an average computer system should enable you to run the software without problems.

The interface of GetGo Video Converter looks nicely structured and clean, without having useless and badly-placed options. All the functions are intuitive and even beginners can use them. After loading the desired video file or a list of files, the user can select a profile that suits his needs and the designation of the converted file, for example saving the video to be played on an iPod or a Zune multimedia device. Every profile can be thoroughly customized and the video and audio parameters can be changed to whatever the user wishes. If the user modifies some settings by mistake and wants the default values back for that certain file, there's a Reset button available.

After having the desired profile selected, the conversion process can begin by clicking the big Start button displayed in the main window. If there is more than one file opened in GetGo Video Converter, then the program will convert them one by one automatically. After a while, depending on the computer configuration, the user will get a video file that is perfectly compatible with the device selected in the profiles page.

If the resulting video file is still too big to fit on a device, it can be split by size or by time. A conversion log is available, so the user can be sure if the conversion is successful. The options sections of GetGo Video Converter allow modifying various aspects of it, like setting a sound to be played after a successful conversion, or setting the directory where the converted video file will be saved.
