hello this is ken from the computer clan
here today with a demo of a very nice
and powerful video conversion program
for the mac it's called macx video
converter pro and it works rather well
it's from this website here and there
are many other programs available here
as well and there is a windows version
of this program i will be showing the
software on a Mac but keep in mind if
you need this on Windows you can get it
for windows as well for a pretty decent
price so version 5 was released very
recently so it's time to do a new demo
here so for this demonstration I have
three things here that i will be using
the application for first I'd like to
show you the installer well like most
mac apps there isn't really an installer
you just get this graphic here of the
logo when you download the disk image it
will show this window in the finder when
you open it and all you do is drag it
into your Applications folder i already
have it installed so i can replace it
but all you do is drag it in and a good
go so i'm going to open it up from my
launch pad or i can have it in the doc
here as you can see just cook it and
here we go
we have a bunch of functionality is
built in such as adding movies pictures
there's even a built-in youtube
downloader and there's even a screen
recorder so I gotten recording my screen
right now to show you this demo but for
example if you don't have any of the
screen recording program well this
converter has built-in record which is
pretty nice as well the first thing i
want to do is convert a file i have a
movie here that I worked on a while ago
called the red letter day and overall
it's a pretty long movie it's 31 minutes
you know it's pretty large and file size
it's long so let's see it is 1.75
gigabytes in size right so that's a
little large maybe I want to shrink it
down shorten it a bit and send it to a
friend and sending large files over the
internet doesn't always work so well so
maybe I want to
make it more convenient to send over the
web so we're going to add a file and
I'll choose my ghost murder movie and
I'll open that and it will load it right
into here and by default we have a whole
bunch of output presets that lets us
choose how we want the video to be when
it's encoded so i can code for a
specific microsoft device maybe or i can
convert it to fit and android tablet and
there's a lot of specific devices in
here that have optimal presets for them
as you can see maybe I want to convert
it specifically for an apple device
maybe I want to make a low-res video for
an iphone so let's see we'll do mp4 and
we'll do a resolution of 640 by 480 and
I can choose the quality i can make it
higher or lower now 640 by 480 is a 423
aspect ratio that's a video that's
typically a little more square looking
but my original video is 16 by 9 which
is $OPERAND widescreen don't worry it
will automatically change into 640 x 360
it will keep the aspect ratio so let's
say I want this one I want to convert to
iphone it done now as you can see up
here have a little iphone icon that
means a you're using the iphone format
and if i put this Geer I get even more
settings so i can choose my codec which
mpeg-4 is the only option for the iphone
here and my movie was shot at 30 frames
per second by default it went to 23 9 7
which is more of a film frame right but
I can have it go to keep original and
then it will know which frame rate to
use and I can hit OK and apply these
settings will do that now let's say I
only want the viewer to see a little bit
of the movie as you can see the movies
about 31 minutes along i can go to this
edit button and I can actually go
through the memory right here right no
so i can pause that go to trim and let's
say end time I want to do
we'll just do one minute here so i could
drag the output here yoga like that or i
can even type in the value down here
i'll just do one minute
so now I only have one minute of the
movie selected all had done and as you
can see 02 59 seconds so that is all
that will export so now i'm all ready to
go
I have all my settings set my little
edits and everything and I could even
preview more of it down here like this
is the whole movie so I get the idea of
what i'm working with so I can go and
hit run but before I do that i'd like to
show you another cool thing my neck pro
has for physical course and for virtual
cores on the processor you can set how
many cores you want this application use
so if you only want to use half of your
computers for processing power
essentially you can set the fourth you
want the other cores to be used for
other applications or if you want to go
full speed ahead and render at full
power go with all the cores you have and
you can also choose your destination
folder which is where the final movie
will be placed
I just chose the desktop for this
demonstration
okay well good to go let's hit run and
will tell me how it's going right now
it's going at two and 60fps looks like
it's more than halfway done already and
we're good to go
as you can see there's my movie it's
nice and short
it's only a minute long now and as you
can see the file size is a point four
megabytes so it's really easy to send
that over the internet now that's a
really small file that could even fit as
an email attachment in most cases so
that's pretty convenient for this next
demonstration I will simulate a
situation that has definitely happened
to me before
when you're working on the Mac you're
probably working with videos but
sometimes you have a client or a friend
that sends you a file that is a WMV as
you can see the WMV here can be opened
up by VLC that's what this icon is but
if you're going to use it in quick time
which is a very popular media player or
perhaps an iMovie or final cut
you may have some issues getting a
windows media format to import while
with this conversion software that's not
a problem we can make this a QuickTime
movie that is optimized for use inside
of other applications or just inside the
quicktime player so I'll just drag this
windows media file
into the program it loads up and if i go
to Mac general video I have some very
good options especially for quicktime
mom is the standard QuickTime format in
h.264 is a very popular codec that works
with it so i'm going to choose this one
and had done so i have this old movie
that i made a long time ago it was a
little intro video for a windows thing
as you can see i got like a little
windows logo going on here and this is a
WMV so like i said earlier i probably
won't be able to play instead of
quicktime final cutter I movie but now
that it says mom right here Marv h.264
we're converting this specifically for
quicktime other media players can use
QuickTime files but this is not more
optimized to playback on the mac so
we're all good to go
I have all my cores I want to use on my
corset goes at full speed will hit run
and converting and it's done already so
now i can open this in quicktime and it
works just fine earlier if I would try
to open up a windows file in quicktime i
would get this lovely error it doesn't
work but this file works just fine
because we converted it with macx and it
works great the last feature of this
program I would like to demo is the
youtube downloader it is very simple
so go over to the YouTube tab here and
hit add a link and as you can see we
just paste it right here so I'll go to
my little bookmark having my desktop
here for video i made earlier open this
up and here's my movie here and let's
say i want to download this file to my
computer I could do that simply by
taking the URL copiée switch back to
the program here and paste when i hit
analyze macx will tell me what formats
and resolutions i can download in so
let's take a look and here we go i can
download in all of these different
resolutions this is 1920 x 1080 so
that's high definition this is 720p
high-definition but maybe i just want a
really small file so i'll stick with
this one it's only six point three megs
so that's another will hit OK
and here we are presented with the movie
file coming right from the YouTube
server I will choose my destination
folder i will set my desktop for this
demonstration looks like we're all good
to go so we'll hit download now and it
will now take the file off the server
and put it on my desktop and right here
is that file we just downloaded from
youtube as you can see it works just
fine no problems so that is a quick look
at macx video converter and some of its
functionalities if you need help with
