AVConvert helps you editing and convert your audio and video files much faster and in many cases losslessly. You simply right-click the media files in Windows Explorer and trigger the desired conversion option from the cascaded context menu - it's that easy! Wait a few seconds and the processed files will be available in the source files' folder. AVConvert's options will be shown in the context menu when you right-click a media file. You'll find options to convert files to other media formats, to losslessly extract audio from video files or to resize selected videos. The animated gif shows some of the available context menu options (varying depending on the right-clicked media file type). AVConvert's gives you "editorless media file editing".

AVConvert is provided free of charge and will work on all versions of 64 bit Windows. File conversion is extremely easy and super-fast and there's nothing for you to configure. Select one or more files of the same file type in Windows Explorer, right-click one of them and choose the desired option. The conversion process will take only a few seconds - even when processing multiple files. Many conversion processes are even lossless because AVConvert will transcode the files rather than re-encode them. Lossless video editing speeds up video editing by magnitudes since the speed is only limited by the read and write speed of the hard drive and doesn't depend on the CPU! M.2 SSD drives can copy several GB worth of data per second! The lossless editing options of AVConvert are unique and not found in other video editors.

AVConvert offers the following conversion and transcoding options (for one or multiple selected files of the same file type):

• conversion between the most common lossless audio formats (Wave, FLAC, WavPack, AIF, CAF) - even multichannel-capable!
• conversion from Wave to lossy formats (AC3, MP3, M4A, AIFF, CCITT a-law, CCITT mu-law and OPUS) and vice-versa. Metadata and tags will be kept whenever possible.
• lossless audio extraction from MKV, MP4, MPG, WebM, MXF and MOV video files (AC3, MP2, MP3, PCM/Wave, M4A and OPUS). If the video file contains more than one audio stream, those can also be extracted losslessly (up to 4).
• lossless muxing of MKV, MOV, MP4 and WebM video with various audio files (AAC, M4A, MP3, OPUS, WAV and WebM, depending on what audio formats the resp. video format allows). You can choose to either add audio to a video file (no matter how many audio streams it already contains) or to replace all existing audio with the new audio.
• convert audio from MKV, MP4, MPG, WebM and MOV video files to Wave.
• merge-convert 2 audio streams from a single video file (MKV or MP4) into a single 4-channel Wave file.
• split single 4-channel Wave file into 2 stereo Wave files.
• merge-convert 3 audio streams from a single MKV video file into a single 6-channel Wave file.
• split single 6-channel Wave file into 3 stereo Wave files.
• convert between lossy and lossless multichannel audio formats (Wave, FLAC, WV, OPUS, M4A), retaining all audio channels.
• change bit depth of Wave files (16 to 24 bit and vice-versa).
• convert stereo Wave files to mono.
• convert mono Wave files to stereo.
• convert LR (left-right) stereo wave files to MS (mid-side) stereo (and vice-versa).
• convert sample rate of Wave, WavPack and FLAC files from 44.1 k to 48 k and vice-versa.
• extract only left or right channel from Wave, MP3 or M4A files.
• create 4-channel true-stereo impulse response files from regular stereo WAV impulse response files for use in true-stereo-capable convolution reverb plugins.
• losslessly transcode AAC files to M4A file and vice versa.
• quickly create a video from a single JPG image incl. a temporary title overly, a temporary text caption and/or a pernanent logo overlay, an optional zooming effect into the still image and your desired background musc.
• quickly create slideshow videos from all JPG files in a folder (incl. title/logo/text overlays, if desired).
• extract image sequences of user-definable sections of videos.
• quickly batch-watermark JPG images by adding a title insert and/or a logo to all currently selected JPG files in a folder.
• create a timelapse video from JPG images or a video that mimics a fast image browsing effect by setting the images per second for the video.
• convert animated GIFs to MKV video files.
• create animated GIFs from customizable sections of MKV video files.
• slowly zoom into MKV videos.
• overlay one video over another one.
• de-mux (de-interleave) video files into separate files for video and audio.
• create screen recording videos that immediately include pre-configured title, text or logo overlays!
• reverse video footage (output video plays backwards).
• resize video files to 4k, 2k, 1080p or 720p either with or without audio re-compression to AAC or while preserving all audio streams of the original video.
• losslessly crop top and bottom of videos to achieve various wide, cinematic looks.
• losslessly crop video's width and/or height by any amount of pixels divisible by 2. Unique feature: Previously cropped areas are not lost in the output video and, thus, can be losslessly restored in a later "un-cropping" process!
• cut/trim video footage losslessly.
• losslessly concatenate gigabytes worth of video clips in only a few seconds.
• rotate video footage by 90, 180 or 270 degrees and/or flip it horizontally/vertically.
• losslessly correct the sync offset and re-synchronize audio with the video.
• convert MKV, MOV and MP4 video files to MOV ProRes Proxy, LT, SQ, HQ or DNxHD. The audio of the source video will be converted to WAV.
• convert/resize videos while simultaneously overlaying a title, a text caption and/or a permanent logo.
• re-compression quality of AVConvert can be set to high quality or low quality for video and audio independently.
• create super smooth slowmo videos (slowed down by factor x1.5, x2, x3 or x4) either with or without the simultaneous insertion of a custom logo overlay.
• speed-up or slow down videos losslessly by changing the frame rate to 23.976 fps, 24 fps, 25 fps, 29.97 fps, 30 fps or 50 fps (up to 100 fps for 25 fps footage).

See gallery of AVConvert's menus. Most of the menus shown in the gallery have been extended with new features in the meantime.

AVConvert uses FFmpeg to do its magic. A help file is provided in the package but you can also view/download it here. The PDF file contains detailed instructions on how to install and uninstall AVConvert and also on how to use the tool.>

AVConvert does not require an installation via a setup routine. Please refer to the help file for more information on how to install AVConvert.
