VideoProc Converter, one of the top one-stop video processing programs, was launched in October 2018 by Digiarty Software, Inc. It has witnessed a sharp rise in global users since its inception. What initially began as a program intended to deliver easy video editing and conversion solutions for Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok.
It has become a robust and capable 4K/HD video toolbox to convert videos/audio/DVDs, fix, compress, edit, download, and record for over 1000+ UGC sites and beyond. But does the program truly live up to its reputation? Here we have pieced together a full review of VideoProc Converter, unlocking every bit of the program: features, options, price, strengths, and drawbacks.
VideoProc Converter Overview
Designed as a full-fledged video processing software for Windows and Mac, VideoProc Converter enables users to convert quickly, download, record, compress, and edit large 4K videos. It can quickly tackle and efficiently address all the issues related to media formats, codec, quality, size, processing, corruption, etc. Built upon a robust and versatile technical base primarily characterized by ease of use, intuitiveness, compatibility, and stability, the tool is open to beginners and experts. It offers the most customizable solutions to all.
VideoProc Converter Features
1. Full-GPU Acceleration
Video tasks consume much processing power and data, especially on a poorly configured machine. For instance, transcoding high-quality h.264/H.265 files solely through software would necessitate high CPU usage (often 90-99%) and might sometimes force a computer to collapse when doing so.
However, empowered by the unique level-3 hardware acceleration, one of the most dominating features of VideoProc, the whole execution process can be drastically shortened and enhanced without landing any detriment to the media file. Based on our testing result, graphics-based acceleration reduces video size output by up to 90%, with minimal loss in playback quality and up to 98% of the initial image quality reserved.
Moreover, technically speaking, the technology offloads video encoding and decoding and video processing from CPU to GPU, which prompts an up to 47x real-time increase in speed, along with an average of 2% CPU usage only. And in our testing, the GPU acceleration in VideoProc Converter reflects on 3 fields mainly, including media converter, video editor, and screen recorder.
2. Capable Media Converter
Containing 370+ input codecs and 420+ output without third-party codec packs, VideoProc Converter grants you the ability to convert videos/audios to universal and lossless codec formats, backup DVDs into video or audio files, and customize the media file properties for resolution, bit rate, frame rate, and more.
