VERDICT
A ll of the programs featured in this month’s Roundup will convert a video from one format to another, either to save disk space or for compatibility with a playback device, but sometimes we need to do more. Two particularly common tasks are resizing the video resolution and removing parts of the video. The latter could be because you just want to transcode a portion of the video or to remove parts such as commercial breaks from recorded shows. You may also want to transcode a short clip to test your settings before spending hours on the whole video.
