Best Free Video Converter App for PC - Handbrake Sucks

Handbrake is no longer the best best free video converter for PC computers. FFMPEG is the winner but using it is a significant pain because it is command-line driven. That's where Shutter Encoder comes in. This video explains how it works, and I know you'll love it.

    great tip about this software. My main use is to archive videos on my cellphone. Which are way too big. This software makes it easier to compress them. But my main concern is preserving the creation date. For easy sorting. But when i ticked on "preserve metadata", the creation date wasnt preserved. It was on the date of the conversion. Any tips on how i can do this?

I now use a restricted laptop, and I can't install things, and I don't want to go to the basement and convert files all the time on my Linux box. So I needed something to use on my work laptop. I was getting ready to use handbrake command line when I came across your video. WOW! what a time-saver I downloaded the portable version, and Shazam! done deal. thanks again.

    I tested your sample and it works in Camtasia! Does your response mean that you'd just create in AE with that codec output, and you wouldn't be using the Converter because the converter doesn't have that combo? My goal was to be able to get some of the more easily found/purchasable alpha channel assets but then convert them if they didn't work in Camtasia. That's the dream.

    COOL!. It's a front-End software program. Thanks for the tip!!! Downloading it now. I used to write FRONT-END software in the early to mid 20's like that, because any newby who bought a computer for the first time in those days didn't know what a command prompt was. In fact, I was too lazy to use command prompts myself, so I wrote VB programs and batch files for myself. I still use batch files today. It looks like it has an output "file size" calculator built in. For my ROKU Ultra most 90 minute 1080p movies look good enough for me when set at 1,200MB, on a 50" screen. But that's just my opinion and my bad eyes.

    Hey RichyzVlogs, What's the original size of the video? Are you scaling the video size up from 1080p to 2K? I wonder if the scaling is messing with the color. What would happen if you turned up the saturation in your editor, then re-encode the video again and then convert to 2K. Do you think the color would be better after the conversion. Give it a try. Also, I think there's a way to modify color in the software as well. Correct me if I'm wrong. I'm sending this message away from my office at the moment. I'd be interested in learning what you find out.

    @@ScottFichter it's in 1080p and h.265, I'm only upscaling it to 2k since KZread only allows vp9 on 2k and above videos but I can't understand what's causing the colours to change, that's a good idea, I could try saturating it in my video editor and seeing if it renders any differently on there as a vp9, I know I could just saturate the footage anyway but I feel that defeats the purpose of the h.265 colours being nice in the first place and it won't be natural. I was thinking it could be to do with what it's choosing to render as I set it to auto possibly, or some kind of setting somewhere but as to now I'm lost. But yeah I'll try some stuff out and see if I can figure this out. Thanks for the help 🙂
