Video Converter

Batch convert with presets (YouTube/Instagram/Mobile/Lossless), CRF/bitrate control, hardware encoders (NVENC/QSV/VAAPI/AMF), safe .part writes, filters, and naming tokens.
Quick Start
- Add videos to the queue.
- Pick a Preset (YouTube 4K/1080p, Instagram vertical, Lossless).
- Click Start. Use tokens like
{name}-{res}-{date}.
All Controls
| Control | What it does | When |
|---|---|---|
| Preset | Loads codec/CRF/scale/fps defaults | Fast, consistent setup |
| CRF | Quality target (lower = better) | Web publishing; CRF 18-22 |
| Bitrate | Size target (kbps/mbps) | Strict limits/stream rules |
| Scale/Aspect | Resize/letterbox/pad | 4K/1080p or 1080x1920 vertical |
| FPS | Keep/drop/interpolate | Match platform guidelines |
| Filters | deinterlace, hqdn3d, unsharp, rotate | Fix or stylize |
| Hardware Encoder | NVENC/QSV/VAAPI/AMF | Much faster encodes |
| Naming Tokens | {name}, {res}, {vcodec}, {date} | Organized outputs |
Scenarios
- YouTube 4K: H.264 CRF 18-20; AAC 192 kbps; 4K scale.
- Instagram Reels: 1080x1920, 30-60 fps; center subject.
- Archival: FFV1/UtVideo lossless; or ProRes/DNxHR.
Troubleshooting
- FFmpeg not found -> install and set path.
- Huge files -> raise CRF/lower bitrate; try HEVC/AV1.
- Audio sync -> transcode to CFR or re-mux audio.
