Editors' Review

This video splitter, merger, and format converter has an interface that looks like it hasn't aged since 1997. Fortunately, it's been laid out in a clean, legible manner, and that goes a long way toward usability.

WM Converter deftly handles conversion to WMV and QT formats from most of the major standards. These are preformatted for the Zune and the iPod, which means that the predefined bitrate will seems low for desktop use of the output files. Batch conversions are no problem for this Ugly Duckling of an app, and the merging tool was effective during our tests, as well. The program can also extract audio tracks from videos and record them as MP3s.

Although the interface is readable, a cleaner layout would be really helpful in identifying the various conversion buttons and other options. We would also like to see more customization choices in future editions.

Pros
Converts many formats.
Cons
Hard to see interface text. Not as customizable as version 2.0 that I was using.
Summary
If you have the older version, don't upgrade. Updated on Jan 14, 2013I meant to give it 3 stars, I missed my mark.
Very unimpressed

Pros
Very Capable Video Converter Can Rip DVD VIDEO_TS/VTS_01_1.VOB, etc. files NO max time limit on conversion or ripping Not one of those FALSE Freeware Utilities NO commercials, or never-ending sign-up reminders
Cons
None... even criticism of simple GUI is not valid This old-time program works as freeware, unlike competitors...
Summary

MerrilySing6/6/2010
Pros
Does what it says it does without a lot of unnecessary bells and whistles. Easy enough to understand, even for a novice like me. Works just fine with my Windows 7 version of Movie Maker.
Cons
I can't seem to figure out how to output the files to a folder of my choice.
Summary
I use this mainly to convert AVI to MP3 to use for making simple videos on Windows Movie Maker. It does the job just fine. It's easy to understand, with basic choices for output file type and quality. There are also choices to split and merge, but I haven't tried those yet. If you need a basic converter, I would definately recommend this.
Great, Better than expected!

Cons
None that I can find!
Summary
A waste of time downloading it. It simply doesn't work.
philipto1233/17/2010
Pros
Nothing. Just a piece of software that doesn't work.
Cons
You can't do anything with the software as it doesn't work. You can't convert, merge, split and process. What a waste of time.
Summary
Fast and true renders
RubyJones3/8/2010
Pros
This is the only one I have tried that is fast and easy to use. It takes mpeg and even converts your avi files to a smaller avi file. All without losing any quality! That is something that none of the others were able to do.
Cons
none that I can think of.
