Freemake Video Converter

[Captin]

I'm posting this again because it's been updated with some new features. I've been using this program for quite a while now and even though I've paid for ConvertXtoDVD I find this FREE program much better. Plus it will let you download directly from youtube (or any of another 30+ websites) and burn straight to DVD or Blu-ray, or convert to 200+ formats including MP3. If the youtube video is split Freemake can join all the parts together before converting.

You can take several MKV/AVI files and covert to a DVD/Blu-ray with a motion or thumbnail or text menu. It's also fast, around 2/3 the time of ConvertXtoDVD on my system.

Some of the new features are,

Unique! Upload Photos and MP3 to YouTube

Upload videos, photo slideshows, MP3 to YouTube with our free video converter. Upload AVI, WMV, MP4, 3GP, JPG, BMP, GIF, MP3 to YouTube. The program will cut videos (if required) into 15-minute parts and insert them into one YouTube playlist.

Unique! Burn DVD - up to 40 hours!

Unlike other software, our free video converter doesn't have a two-hour limit and can burn DVD video up to 20h to a Standard DVD or 40h to DVD-DL. With our free video converter, you can make multiple DVD copies and save the output DVD video to your PC as an ISO image or DVD folder.

Exisiting features include

Fastest Video Converter with CUDA and DXVA

Freemake is the only free video converter that features integrated both CUDA and DXVA technologies for the fastest ever video conversion and less CPU usage. The software automatically detects the optimal conversion parameters and switches on/off CUDA and DXVA for better conversion results.
