What exactly is this iSkysoft Video Converter? To put it simply, it is an all-in-one video converter that not only allows users to convert video files (HD and SD), but it also allows users to convert audio files, rip audio from video files, and perform basic edits on files before converting. The following is the official list of features for iSkysoft Video Converter (created by the developer) followed by a chart listing all the supported input formats, output formats, and electronic devices (also created by the developer):

    @Jinlei: Sorry for not clearing your comment earlier. I just found it marked as spam and had to manually clear it.

    @Ronado: Your comment was marked as spam too, sorry about that. Maybe the website was being overloaded earlier but it seems to work just fine now – I just tried it.

    Ashraf, I have Daniusoft MOD converter, Are there any differences in out put quality from this converter or are they the same? I know Daniusoft is a part of Wondershare so I was wondering if it would be of any gain on my part to switch converters?I find the MOD converter when merging video ,there tends to be a slight break between the two clips, Has any one used the merge feature and how was the output?
    thanks

    Mr. Boss

    @designibelle: You are welcome.

    @Rob: As I mentioned in an earlier comment, I won’t be commenting on this program vs other programs while this giveaway is live since that would be a conflict of interest on my part, and I want to avoid giving any potentially bias answers. Sorry :-( I am sure someone else will be able to help you out.

    Thanks for this. I’m guessing the mac version isn’t free? Since it isn’t in the supported os’es.

    Yes Ashraf, that may had been the problem in that the site may had been overloaded! I finally was able
    to get the very nice Software installed and registered. I worked with it for a while, and it is truly thus far
    a sweet program. Thank you Ashraf, and the Software Vendor iSkysoft for offering up such a nice freebie!

    Compare Xilisoft, Snowfox, and iSkysoft. Which one gives you a cleaner, smoother, and crispier video and audio??

    Thanks Ashrad and iSkysoft for this program. I’m testing it out right now.

    It installed and registered fine in Win 7 Home Premium, 64 Bit. I did managed to make it crash when I was playing around with some of the settings for the conversion and quickly clicked two or three times on the “rotate” icon. I restarted it and went to that function again and “slowly” clicked the icon two or three times and everything worked.

    Again, many thanks.

    @Selva: Hi, Selva. Thanks for your feedback. I have already forwarded it to the R&D team for further checking. And it is even better if you can provide us the source file.

    @Dan: Hi Dan. Sorry for the inconvenience caused to you. We can promise that we are coming here to bring giveaway programs to all readers but not promoting something not valuable. Regarding your problem, I suggest you to check into your trash for the registration letter. And the registration to support center can be cancelled at any time you want. If your still cannot retrieve the keycode, drop me a message (channel(at)iskysoft(dot)com) and I will send it to you. Thanks.

    A follow-up to my previous message about the registration number not working; I received a second email from iSkySoft that I retrieved from my spam folder. It was a different number than the one in the first email, and it worked instantly. Not sure what happened there, and I haven’t started to work with the software yet, but I appreciate the functioning registration, and will certainly give this a workout.

    @Sherwood Tucker: Hi Sherwood. I think the problem is probably because of the 301 redirect used in the article, but it seldom happens. You can directly visit http://www.iskysoft.com/video-converter/video-converter-giveaway.html. Hope it helps.

    @Ronado: Hi Ronado. If you still cannot figure out getting the free keycode, just drop me a message (channel(at)iskysoft(dot)com) and I will send it to you, thanks.

    @Jake: Hi Jake. We used to receive similar questions from our users therefore I understand the reasons. Please be careful not to leave any space in the registration field, otherwise, it will not unlock the program. I advise you to try again and feel free to send me an email (channel(at)iskysoft(dot)com) if it cannot be fixed :)

After that, choose “DVD disc” and you can copy DVD to DVD. User Guide: http://www.iskysoft.com/user-guide/video-converter-ultimate.html. Hope it helps.

    @Rob: Hi Rob. I could not exactly tell you the difference between our products and Daniu MOD converter, but I may suggest you try the giveaway version to see if it helps solving the gap between two clips when merging them. After all, it doesn’t hurt to install and evaluate two converters, they won’t crash :) Thanks.

    Ok… I bought it before actually testing the freebie as I did not know when the discount offer would expire :-) (it seems to be worth paying for)
    Living on the other side of the lake (Norway) I am never sure what the “expire” time is … :-)

    Thanks!!! for this AND all the other offers, “tests” and info you give us all!!!
    Are you finished with all your exams and so on??
    What you and a few helpers do is amazing!!! THANKS

    @ Ashref & Jinlei
    Thank you for the nice giveaway. I have already downloaded and tested it. It is a swift one. The editing features are good too. I have recommended the application to two of my friends.
    Thank you!
