You have asked, waited, and finally, you got it! This is an unprecedented release of our Video Converter www.freemake.com/free_video_converter with a bundle of new features. Firstly, upon numerous requests of our users, we have integrated the preset editor. Now you can have the total control over the output result by customizing conversion parameters. Create your own presets: establish video and audio codecs, frame size, frame rate, sample size, and sample rate. Choose a proper icon, and save you custom preset for further usage. However, if you prefer an autopilot mode, just use the default "Same as source" settings and let the algorithm to do all the work for you. Let's see how it works. If you don't have the Freemake software installed on your PC, it's high time to get it. You can choose between an online installer in case your connection is fast and an offline one. The 2nd option is perfect for users with a poor connection of those who need to install the tool on a computer without the Internet. As soon as the utility is installed, launch it and add media files that you want to transform to another media extension. Now select a format at the bottom of the utility. Click a corresponding button to open the format settings. In a drop-down menu, select “Add custom preset” option. If you transform media for your portable device and plan to use the same settings in future, type the new preset name in the top line to save it. Now check the settings supported by your gadget. In most cases, you can find them in users' manual. When you are done, return to Freemake tool. Choose a movie codec, set the required bitrate, frame size, and frame rate. If necessary, select custom frame size and adjust the film to fit your requirements. Then do the same for audio settings.
