Most people are fond of digital video. They may pick them from the online store all they create them from a collection of precious photos and music. All of us know how it is painful if we fail to open our videos and watch them when we want. Definitely, picking a perfect video converter is a vital decision. Video converter is important to watch, edit and share our cinema, clips and videos. Moreover, having a video converter becomes so vital for sharing and watching videos on the portable devices such as iPod, PSP, iPad, iPhone and Zune to watch cinemawhile travelling.

Hence, this is a review of a free video converter called Koyote Free Video Converter 2.8. In my point of view, the ideal video converter should meet all conversion requirements especially the ability to convert flv to mov files for watching in Quick Time. Read on to figure out if this free software may work well for you or you need to pick more reliable video converter.

Koyote is software that converts videos among various formats. It enjoys with a very basic function of converting. I agree that it has very simple tools and options, which may cover a narrow area of conversion needs.

When I used Koyote to convert my videos, I found a wide range of supported formats such as, AVI, MP4, iPod, PSP, 3GP , Zune, iPhone, FLV, MKV, WMV, ASF, MOV, MPEG, RM, VCD, VOB. But really, it sometimes works well with a specific format but unfortunately, it stops working with other formats. This bad luck happened when I tried to convert my flv to mov format to watch on mac. So, I had to search the web for another ideal flv to mov converter.

Another issue during conversion, I was able to watch the video through the conversion process but frame by frame and there is no a preview to see the result after the conversion.

The available formats are in shape of preferences; nevertheless, I was able to easily twist them to meet my needs.

Strengths

It is a user-friendly, and it is suitable for a wide range of formats but problem with flv, vob is found.  I like the flexible options of the profiles which allow user to tweak them. *>*

Weakness

As mentioned before, its leakage in handling flv directed me to pick another perfect converter for flv to mov files and burning a little amount of money. Moreover, no preview of the converted video is available. Users are allowed to convert a part from the video not the whole video. But users still can determine the start and end point they need to be converted. Regarding sound, I have extracted some sounds but only into MP3, WMA, MP2, AAC…

Conclusion

If you have any portable device and want to watch your valuable videos on the go, you would get a sturdy converter to convert your videos from/to the most popular formats. Free video converters give only the very basic function of converting and do not fulfill all users’ requirements. So, it is recommended to spend some money on a reliable converter instead of wasting your time trying free ones.
