Best Free Video Editor and Convertor

[tripleclutch]

Can anyone tell me which is the best free video editor and converter out there?

[Alien]

For simple editing use Avidemux.
Format Factory or Handbrake for video converting.

[thetechfreak]

My coverter of choice is Any Video Coverter. Although I too feel Handbrake and Format Factory are the best out there although I donot use them.

[Zangetsu]

In Video Conversion...nothing can be as good as Handbrake & Freemake Video Converter
there are other Free Converters Format Factory & SUPER which I had used & they were good but after using Handbrake & Freemake I use only these two

Recently saw an article for a video converter. What do you guys think about Any Video Converter Free?

[Anish]

Any video converter is good enough.
But handbrake...Just try it and see

[Alien]

TEncoder is another good video converter.

I think as far as video conversion with simplest interface and easy to understand converter, freemake is best.

For video editing I recommend Virtual Dub even though it has a sparse interface.. you can also try AVIDEMUX. For video conversion I recommend Handbrake. Here is the guide.

If you are comfortable with serious editing software you can try Lightworks it went opensource not so long ago

What is the Video Quality when edited?
Does it match with different types of background seamlessly?

I use Any Video Converter for converting videos.

Even i have this confusion which is the best, but for the fastest, i would say Wondershare Video Converter, it's really fast than any other video converters, but unfortunately lacks the customization...

[TechnoHolic]

I use Format Factory..http://www.pcfreetime.com/
It's a very good conversion tool..it supports a huge format..and a lots of option to customize..
Please test it.

I use Avidemux and its good

Nothing beats ffmpeg. Thats it.
Only good audio/video processors other than ffmpeg are, Handbrake, Avidemux, Tencoder and MeGUI. But yes, I reiterate, ffmpeg is the father and mother of all multimedia processor softwares out there.

+1 for Format Factory for Video Conversions.

I use Freemake Video Converter

[harshilsharma63]

I use Freemake Video Converter

1+ foe Freemake. Although, I also use Wondershare for converting to rey-cyan 3d videos.

@OP: It would be nice, if there was a poll.

Nice one...Thanks.

don't mention it

[TechnoHolic]

Wondershare for converting to rey-cyan 3d videos.

But I didn't see any difference. After converting 2D to red-cyan 3D, converted 3D looks like the source 2D Video.

Did you use the red-blue glasses?

[TechnoHolic]

Yes. I have one.

[harshilsharma63]

Yes. I have one.

Does the converted video not look like a typical red-cyan video? Google for some sample images.

I know what red-cyan video/image is called..
I have 5/6 movies of this type and more than 100 of images in my collection..Like 1. John Carter 2. Piranha 3. Clash of the titan etc.
BTW the converted video looks like red-cyan without glass but when i use those spectacles it looks like normal video..also this video was converted to wondershare's red-cyan type .MP4 (you know there are two formats for 3D in this software).
Anyway can you please suggest any player that can play normal 2D to 3D. (except S Player).

Can avidemux be used for simple cutting/merging and adding text to videos??? Is there any freeware which allows to convert a video to black/white?

Yes and it can do much more than that.
