VIVideoProc Converter AI★★★★★
Has a 90% FAIL rate...
When it works, this is a very nice app....when it works. Unfortunately it has about 10 percent success rate; in other words 8 out of 10 files that you try to download (from Youtube) will give you the annoying pop up "Process FAILED" message. No explanation, just "sorry but we FAILED to deliver what we promise to deliver. I use VideoProc mainly to download content from Youtube and various other sites. I will give VideoProc credit that it actually does work for a larger span of websites, including some very obscure ones. However there is nothing more frustrating than spending 2-3 hours downloading a file, only for a pop up to appear telling you "Process Failed...." at 99%! That's right; it will download all the way to 99% and THEN FAIL! Now I have managed to successfully download a few files and the ones that worked look very good. But with a 90%-95% FAIL rate I really can't recommend this..It's a huge time waster...

Attention foreign film fans
Attention foreign film fans; Dvdfab is a great dvd burning program, providing the movie doesn't require SUBTITLES. This program has had the same subtitles glitch for 15 years. The problem; the subtitles appear TOO LOW ON THE SCREEN,.so low that they are half gone, making them unreadable. There are all these buttons on the control panel THAT DO ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. They claim you can change the size of the subtitles, the color, the font etc....but no matter what setting you choose the subtitles come out EXACTLY THE SAME WAY. For instance if you set the subtitles to come out, small and yellow, they will come out white, giant, and half off the screen. And don't even try to add an external subtitle file, because the program knocks them out of sync with the movie. I'm frustrated because I created a lot of foreign film dvd's without checking them...then I discovered that the subtitles are messed up on EVERY disc, so I have to create the dvd's again, a process that will take weeks...I recommend ConvertX for creating dvd's; the subtitles come out fine with this app...unfortunately the picture quality isn't very good, as a result of the app shrinking the movie file for no reason...I imagined that in the year 2023 that these ridiculous glitches wouldn't exist anymore, but the creators of these garbage products are so quick to get their money that they throw non-working crap on to the market anyway...
