To complete a conversion, just select an output format and destination folder for the new file, and then click the Convert button.Output organization: When you're choosing an output format for your video file, you'll have little trouble finding the one you're looking for.

Selecting a device opens another menu with the format options you can choose from, or you can browse the entire list by selecting All Devices.ConsLimited test: This app does offer a free trial option, but there are significant limits. For instance, you can only convert the first five minutes of a longer video, or half of a video that's less than five minutes long. This does let you get a feel for the controls and available features of the app, but it doesn't give you a full sense of how the app would handle the conversion of a full movie or how long it would take. There are also constant reminders that you are using a trial version and that you have to dismiss each one to continue with your trial.Bottom Line4Videosoft MKV Video Converter works smoothly and makes the process of conversion accessible to users of all experience levels.
