Today we are reviewing a software tool for converting your favorite DVDs to MP4 format. The Video Converter software from Movavi allows users to quickly and easily convert DVD to MP4 and is actually one of the easiest conversion tools that we have experimented with.
The software interface is very straightforward and requires just a few steps to create an MP4 file from a DVD source. There is no need to navigate complex menus or understand different formatting options – making this tool easy to use even for technical novices.
Outlined below are the simple steps necessary to perform the DVD to MP4 conversion using the Movavi Video Converter.
-
Download and install the Video Converter software.
-
Launch the software and add the video file that you wish to convert
-
Choose the format and resolution that you wish to use for the conversion
-
Choose the folder where you wish to store the converted file, and start the conversion.
-
Now you have the option of transferring the converted file to one of your mobile devices.
That’s all there is to it.
For more advanced users, there are additional options – beyond the simple steps outlined above.
Video attributes such as resolution, bit rate, frame rate and aspect ratio can be configured to further optimize the quality of the resulting MP4 file.
Video editing tools are also available – such as the footage trimming and video frame cropping. Picture attributes such as contrast, saturation and brightness can also be adjusted.
We found the quality of converted video to be quite good – with only minimal pixellation in places. Similarly, the post-conversion audio quality is also very good – with only a very slight volume loss present. These were effects we were looking for, specifically for review purposes, and are unlikely to be noticed by a casual viewer.
One thing to keep in mind, regarding the Movavi Video Converter is that it is made for use with home-made and unprotected DVD media. The DVD to MP4 Converter will not work with copy-protected DVDs.
Overall we find the software to be a quality video conversion and editing product – recommended for novice and intermediate users.
