The Video Converter Thread

Due to the extreme amount of video converter threads I've been seeing I decided to make a sticky thread for them. Do not use this topic to SPAM. Any questions or links regarding video converters should be posted here. I will allow the posting of shareware programs if they are noted as shareware and they only appear once in the topic. If I see a shareware program repeatedly posted in the thread I will delete all posts about that program. If I feel that there is advertising occurring I will remove the offending posts.

This thread is for general questions about video converters. You may use the iPod forum for more specific questions.

Also, please don't inquire about illegal activities like ripping rentals or breaking encryption. Such posts will be deleted.

Takes a while sometimes, but no programs to install.

I use HandBrake on Linux; Handbrake.fr.
It's open source, so it's free and works great. There should also be a Windows and Mac OSX version.

I use http://www.keepvid.com for downloading off YouTube. Download in High Quality.

For converting videos to MP4 from other formats, I use SUPER Converter (As recommended by ZL)

Also, please don't inquire about illegal activities like ripping rentals or breaking encryption.

As far as that goes, PM myself and I will kindly help.
