Blaze Media Pro

Oh don't even think I haven't used many a converter in my time. Truth is I am constantly looking for a better one and I am fed up with media converters who claim to be the best when they are NOT.

Of course when I read that Blaze Media Pro was a power house I immediately rolled my eyes, scoffed and began my trip down doubt and trial lane.

FINALLY I can say I was wrong and now I have a program I can stick with and even encourage other people to use.

Blame Media Pro is a video converter and an audio converter, but it is also a DVD ripper. Video files can also be created from still frame images and/or other videos. That feature is particularly helpful when you're putzing around and trying to put something fun together for YouTube. Which I have been known to do from time to time, lol. (Yes, it even has a tool to extract the audio from video files.)

Unlike many other software programs out there this one has an extensive list of supported conversions for audio files. Every extension you can think of is supported. Formats supported for audio conversion include CD, MP3, WAV, WMA, OGG, MPEG-4, AIFF, M4A, AAC, AC3, FLAC, and ALAC, and two-way conversions among MPEG-1, MPEG-2, AVI, WMV, ASF, Flash (SWF and FLV), iPod, PSP, 3GP, and MOV are available for video. MPEG options are available for VCD, SVCD, and DVD compliant output.

Above all though I think the best feature is the video compression. I mean this not only converts, but it also compresses the file which then makes burning easier. And since this is the professional version there are even ways to edit video, including deleting frames which is sometimes the only thing I need to do.

Needless to say this is finally a conversion and ripper software that stands up to its name while also killing the competition hands down. Blaze Media Pro.
