The MPEG Streamclip Fact
After installing The MPEG Streamclip on my Mac I stated to work with my video. First of all, it has a very basic interface that can cause depression to the beginners. My video is only 24 MB, but I feel that the program tries to handle a 24 GB! It was very slow and boring. )(!
I gave it patience and waited until the conversion process finished. What a surprise it is! My video is already converted from mp4 to mov and I could open it in Quick Time movie but you should have superhero eyes to watch the video. The picture was blurry and there is a lot of noise. I tried to use different settings to adjust the quality but no good, every time I get the same bad result.
Finally, I decided to burn some money to get a reliable mp4 to mov converter that can fulfill all my needs. Happily, I picked the Wondershare Video Converter for Mac. It is such a converter that gives an outstanding quality with a remarkable speed. In fact, it can do the job perfectly.
