Among the countless video conversion tools available out there, most of them can convert many files at once into a given format, but only a handful of them can be considered to be true batch multiformat video converters, and ImTOO MP4 Video Converter is one of them. The beauty of this tool lies not in its capability to convert multiple files in one single operation, but in its ability to convert each of them into a different format and into as many formats as needed, all at once.
This versatility and flexibility is what makes a video converter stands out from the plethora of competitors in this field. In most other aspects, ImTOO MP4 Video Converter is on par with the majority of them, except on the video editing area, which this particular tool regretfully lacks almost completely. The interface is very similar to that in other media converters, complete with a small video player to preview your files, a snapshot tool, technical information about the output codec selected, etc. Likewise, it offers an extensive list of supported output formats and profiles conveniently classified by device and type of codec.
As briefly hinted above, just a few of the many so-called “multiformat batch converters” are but batch conversion tools that support a set of different formats – i.e., they can convert more than one file at a time but to just one output format only per conversion process. ImTOO MP4 Video Converter, however, can assign to the first file on the list, say, an Android Phone profile, and an iPhone 6 profile to the second file, etc. Moreover, it can assign multiple profiles or output codecs to each of the files on the list, so that you can convert the first title not only to a format that your Android device can play, but also to formats that you PlayStation, your iPod, and your Xbox can manage, respectively, and add some audio extraction profile on top, so that you can also play the soundtrack of that video on your favorite audio playback device. Thus, you can now truly convert multiple files into multiple formats in whatever way and using whatever combination fits your needs or preferences, all in one single operation.
This is what makes this tool so attractive. Its tag price is more than adequate for the level of versatility and flexibility it provides and for the functionality and level of support it offers, and still, it is lower than the license fees of other similar (though much more rigid) tools. Certainly worth trying.
