We have mixed feelings about Mystik Media's Blaze Media Pro video converter software. The company has performed well in other reviews and this particular software includes a slew of additional features that most of the other products couldn't hold a candle to. However, Blaze Media Pro lacked the features it needed most, like a comprehensive selection of input and output files. Additionally, we found the software was slow loading and used a lot of RAM, making our computers run slower overall.

Softpepper Video Converter is an easy to use application, that has an uncanny resemblance to one of the higher ranked products, Movavi. Softpepper supports the conversion of WMV, AVI, MPEG, MOV, RM and MP4. Not a large list, but it does cover the basics. However, we would have liked the ability to convert VOB (DVD) and FLV (Flash) files.
