Handbrake

Handbrake is hailed as one of the most favored free DVD video converters running on both Mac and windows, capable of handling pretty much anything you throw at it and repackaging it into the most useful formats MP4 and MKV. Like MacX Video Converter Pro, there are also other amazing options available for you to touch up your video, like add subtitles to video, change the video codec type, set and customize frame rate, etc. But the maze-like settings often drive you to find a specific Handbrake tutorial in video converting . Anyway, its open source brings Handbrake superiority.

Note: Handbrake only supports converting videos to MP4 and MKV formats and its latest version 0.9.9 doesn't get along well with Mavericks. For people who are eager to convert video to other format like MOV, FLV, AVI, WMV, etc, you are advisable to find a Handbrake alternative for Mavericks to do the video conversion.



Prism Video Converter

Prism Video Converter is the most expensive software converter on the list, but it is still joined in our top pick in reviewing the best video converter for Mac 2014. It can be a relief especially for those new beginners who are easily confused by the complex settings that flood some other Mac video converters. The disappointing thing is that Prism Video Converter doesn't offer as much format support as other software like MacX Video Converter Pro does. And it's a little slow in our video conversion test, with the same audio video sync problem as Handbrake often does. But given the results, if you value quality and easiness over speed and price, you can give the video converter for Mac a try.



Conclusion

Actually, the four Mac video converters are almost on a par with each other. But with their video conversion abilities, available options, easiness, speed and quality in mind, I bet you surely have your answer which one is more favored. While as to me, iMedia Converter for Mac does win my vote as in my test.

What Should I Get Her(TV girly) for Christmas?

Summary: Christmas is coming, do you still worry about to choose a good present for her, here we give the gift for you to enjoy her.

If you want to be a good (or better) influence in her life, I would recommend taking her on outings with you-- day trips to a library, a zoo (as mentioned), an activity centre (like the YMCA for example-- you could attend a class, go for a swim), and lastly a department store, to get an idea of what she likes and has interest in, as well as provide exposure to more things/people/ideas she could develop an interest in.  You will get a better idea of what she wants for Christmas by asking her directly (and whether or not you decide to buy it for her will be up to you-- it may or may not be within your budget or appropriate-- that's a call only you can make), but you will get more clues about what she likes by going on these outings with her, and they will enhance both of your lives.

I'd take a new look at her interests instead of dismissing them. For example:

Someone who likes watching TV might have a desire and a talent for the performing arts. Maybe she could look into taking acting or singing or dancing lessons, and get involved in theatre productions. She could BE in shows instead of watching them. Learning how to get up in front of people and perform is a skill that translates into other fields as well. There are also other career avenues in the performing arts that are not performance related as well she could look at: cameraman, director, producer, sound production, makeup, etc.

Depending on your budget, you could ask her what she would like to do together, encourage her to try doing something new, as your Christmas gift to her. Now that she was interested in movies and TV, why not give her a gift enable she can be watch the TV shows and movies in any time and anywhere?

Here Pavtube give the special offer in the Christmas promotion, we pick Pavtube Video Converter / Mac Version as example, it is an easy-to use, functional video converter and video editor, enables you convert multiple audio and video sources to the desired audio/video format. This program allows you to convert video types such as SD videos, HD footages from camcorders and TiVo/DVR recordings to almost any audio/video format for free entertainment on mobile devices, HD media players, as well as free access to video editing software. 

You can also realize her movie director dream with the built-in video editor. Make personal video by trimming, cropping, adding text/image/video images, inserting SRT/ASS/SSA subtitle into source video, etc.

Don’t hesitate to get it as the Christmas gift for her, once you purchase you will get upgrades free for lifetime. The only thing you should remember is choose the right version from Windows version or Mac version.
