The Enolsoft app, on the other hand, needed 12:39 to do the same – to the first five minutes of the 9:55 video (the trial version only converts the first five minutes of videos).

The latter needed 11:58 (min:sec) to convert the above-linked Big Buck Bunny to a Full HD (this time, I haven't decreased the target resolution) H.264 video. It's, as of version 3.8.0, quite a bit slower than Handbrake. Running into a forum ad campaign of Enolsoft (see Marrisaliu's posts HERE), I've also tested the similarly expensive ($35) Enolsoft Video Converter ( link). While I love some of iSkysoft's products ( SyncPod and FreeSync are two excellent and unique iTunes-less synching products I've always recommended), I need to say their Video Converter for Mac could be better and Handbrake is, generally, preferable to it. Well, I have good news for you: I've thoroughly compared the speed of the converter to commercial ones and found it to be superior in EVERY single test I've made. Unfortunately, some people on user forums promoting commercial, competing products even make use of this common belief. Unfortunately, some people are afraid of using HandBrake ( link), the, by me, most recommended generic video converter tool, to convert their videos into (more) iOS-friendly formats (MP4 / M4V / MOV files) just because it's free and, therefore, must be slow / bad. And there is, of course, Linux and a lot of other, free products. When strictly multimedia playback and conversion are concerned, VLC on desktops, XMBC on desktops and iOS devices (including the Apple TV 2), Subler under OS X are perfect examples of apps that are way better than most if not all(!) commercial alternatives. “ You get what you pay for” and “ there ain't no such thing as a free lunch” aren't always true. Unfortunately, the app doesn't support any kind of MKV / MTS remuxing either. The lack of support for even the most basic and common video formats seems to be a major issue with this app: about 70% of the user comments in the US AppStore complain of similar problems (with other file formats). That is, I couldn't directly compare its encoding speed. Unfortunately, it doesn't support conversion from MSMPEG4 videos at all – unlike all the other, tested converters.

I've also tested Total Video Converter Pro by effectmatrix ( link $19.99 current, tested version: 3.1.6) (not to be mistaken for Total Media Converter reviewed in the original article), which I've purchased from the Mac AppStore previously. With this app, it's halved as can be seen in THIS framegrab.ģ. When converted with HandBrake in its default and extremely well-working, smart “ decomb” mode (or in the “ slow” mode in the, otherwise, not recommended “ deinterlace” mode please see THIS on the differences of these modes), the vertical resolution doesn't decrease. For example, I've created an interlaced Full HD test TS video (it's HERE) showing the standard ISO 12233 resolution chart. Standard DVB TS files are correctly recompressed but their graphical (European) / CC (US) subtitles aren't even recognized, let alone transferred (with the graphical (European) ones, OCR'ed – see THIS for a full treatment of the subject).Ĥ, Something you in no way want to use it for: converting interlaced footage. Then, select the track you want to convert.ģ, no MTS remuxing (unlike with iVI).

I'll contact the developers right now to ask whether they plan to add this feature.Ī tip: if you want to keep a subtitle or want to select from multiple audio tracks, make sure to switch to Advanced mode and click the Settings icon next to each movie title. This is a major problem as, for example, Subler is capable of doing this.

HOWEVER, it's unable to include more than one audio or subtitle track in the target MP4 file. It converted the entire Buck Bunny video in 17:16 (mm:ss the test Mac was exactly the same as explained in the original article), while HandBrake only needed 11:58 for the same operation.Ģ, remuxing-wise: it was able to correctly remux all the standard MKV test files. However, while it's faster than the apps in the same price segment, I still don't recommend it: after all, why spend $36 on an app that is still slower and less supported than HandBrake?Ģ.) As promised in the original version of the article, I've purchased and started testing AnyVideo Converter HD ( Mac AppStore link).ġ, It's decidedly (about 44%) slower at converting to H.264 than HandBrake.
That is, it would have converted the entire video in about 14:40. It was decidedly faster than the previously-discussed, in no way recommended converters: converted the first three minutes (that is, 30.1%) of the Buck Bunny video in 4:35. 1.) I've also tested iPad Video Converter for Mac by 4Media (current version: 6.5 $35.99 discussed for example HERE).
