ASF Converter2.68

ASF Converter is a tool that lets you convert several file types, including ASF, WMV, WMA, DIVX, XVID and DVD.The UI is simple, so even novice users can work with ASF Converter. All you have to do is add the file(s) you wish to convert (drag and drop did not work in our case), select the output format and the output destination, configure additional settings, and convert.The output format consists of AVI, MPEG, WMV and DVD. Plus, you can configure the audio codec format (bitrate, channel), video size and codec, video format (frame rate, bitrate), as well as aspect ratio (for DVD, VCD, or SVCD files).We put several video files to the test. In some cases, the conversion went splendid (e.g. AVI to DVD), but in others, the image quality was damaged (e.g. AVI to WMV, ASF to MPEG). The conversion time depends on the size and type of your video files, but it generally does not take long.Unfortunately, ASF Converter does not notify you in any way when a file has been successfully converted. On the upside, you can preview the source video, view file information, and select output folder and default output format in Options. There is also a help file you can look into.ASF Converter uses a high amount of CPU and moderate system memory. It did not pop up any errors, as far as we have tested.The bottom line is that ASF Converter is a great tool for converting video files, but it definitely needs some improvements (e.g. image quality in some converted files, support for additional video formats).
