Product Description:

iSquint is an iPod video conversion app for Mac OS X.
It's many times faster than QuickTime Pro, works with almost all popular video formats, and it's infinitely free-er.

It's also really easy.
Just drag in your file, and click Start.
You can also choose "TV" or "iPod" size, set your quality, or even go all-out by playing in the Advanced drawer.

On a 1GHz G4, iSquint can convert most video files to iPod-screen-sized videos in realtime. Intel Macs are up to twice as fast, and can convert videos upwards of 5x realtime! Depending on a few factors, a 20 minute video will take up anywhere from 50-150MB of disk space.

Features:
- Fast MPEG-4 and H.264 conversion from almost every popular video format, from 3GP to XviD.
- QuickTime Pro and DivX codec not required.
- DivX and XviD AVIs, all forms of MPEG video, and many other formats QuickTime chokes on are supported.
- Batch Processing of multiple files. Save in-place, or to a different folder.
- Automatic aspect ratio detection. Anamorphic MPEG-2 and HDV detected too.
- Quality slider. Leave it as is to trust me, mess with it if you know better, or completely ignore it and play with the...
- Advanced settings drawer. Change every aspect of the conversion process.
- Multithreaded for multi-processor computers.
- Just a few of the supported formats: .mov .mp4 .avi .dv .mpg .vob .3gp .asf .wmv .flv .m4v

What's new in this version:

  • Certain types of files converted to plain MPEG-4 no longer show up without video in QuickTime Player 7.4 and higher.
  • iSquint now includes a program droplet called "Debreaker" to repair damaged "no video" .mp4 files created by earlier versions of iSquint.
  • Tiny files that finish ridiculously quickly are no longer assumed to be errors.
  • Turkish Localization by Ugur Sofra.

iSquint Commentaryout of sync - Version: 1.5.2, 3/21/2008 11:46AM PST

After converting 5min. clip from format .mov (1GB) to format .mp4 (20-30MB) the audio is badly out of sync. Tried different settings, no good. I would recommend VisualHub, if it was for free.

iSquint ReviewTemporary Fix for Transcoded flv to mp4 Files! - Version: 1.5.1, 2/26/2008 03:43PM PST

The nice folks over at iSquint have a Temporary Fix to the videos that were transcoded last year before the newest QuickTime decided not to play them!

Just change the suffix from .mp4 to to .3gp and they play fine.

I have no idea of the ramifications of this, but at least these vids will play in QuickTime again!

iSquint ReviewNo Video On Any Mp4s converted by iSquint - Version: 1.5.1, 2/8/2008 12:00AM PST

All of the .flv videos I used iSquint to convert to mp4 (before Quicktime started playing .flv files)... ALL of them do not play the video any more... really a drag.
