FreeMake Video Downloader: Easily Download and Convert Videos from the Internet
Everyone needs to covert videos to specified formats at some point in time, and with the advent of video streaming websites (YouTube, Metacafe etc.), videos downloaded are often in formats which cannot be run on other devices like the smartphones, PCs without Flash or FLV players etc.
The tool I’ll be discussing today is the FreeMake Video Downloader, a tool which combines two tasks into one software i.e. it allows users to not only download videos from the web, but also helps them convert it to the format in which they desire the video to actually be. The software allows users to download and convert videos from 20 of the most popular online streaming video services including YouTube, Facebook, Google Videos, Dailymotion, etc. FreeMake Video Downloader supports video conversion to popular mobile formats such as 3GP and MP4, but also allows users to convert videos to AVI, WMV and MP3 formats on-the-go with the option for HD videos as well.
The software is extremely easily to get along with; simple address bar lets you paste the link for the video and then hit add button to convert it as well. Specify the output path and the format in which you want to convert the video and press the download button. Once the video downloads it will automatically be converted to the format in which you specified.
There are a lot of options provided to make this software very flexible. Advanced settings can be configured by accessing the Options menu which is divided by different tabs. The General tab allows users to change how the software runs on the PC, such as Reduce to tray, enable/disable pop-ups, concealing explicit content, etc. From Connection tab, proxy settings can be modified, and Accounts tab refers to adding multiple YouTube & Facebook accounts.
The application is compatible with Microsoft Windows XP, Vista and 7 and is a must have for all of those people who regularly need to download videos from the web and convert them. The best thing about the utility is that it is completely free of any charge. The application can be downloaded from here.
