In the “Profile” drop download list you can find your target according the usage of your output video, such as if you want to put the video on your iPod touch, you can select the “iPod” in the first list and “iPod touch 2 MPEG-4 640*480(*.mp4)” in the second list.

Step 4: Set Advanced Parameters
After you select the right output profile, you can click “setting” button to set your advanced parameters. You can adjust video and audio settings separately. In video section, you can change “video encoder”, “resolution”, “frame rate”, “video bitrate”In audio section, you can change “audio encoder”, “sample rate”, “channel”, “audio bitrate”If you want to save this profile and settings and use it next time you can click “save as” button to give a name to it.

To browse and find a output folder for your output files or just the default one.

Finally, Click “Convert” button to begin your conversion, here in the converting

interface you can choose “shut down the computer when conversion complete” or “open output folder when conversion complete” or you just do not choose neither one.

Tips: How to Edit the Output Video
This video converter is also a video editor, you can use it to edit your output video as follows:

1. Effect:
You are allowed to adjust the “Brightness”, “Contrast”, “Saturation” and you can choose the “deinterlacing” to make the video more enjoyable.

2. Trim:
In “Trim” section you can pick up any part of the video to convert.
There are two ways to select the part of the video you want. One is set the start and end time in the box. The other one is to drag the start and end button in the processing bar.

3. Crop:
This function allows you to choose a certain play area to convert. That means you can choose a part of the screen you like to convert. For example, you just like the tv in the middle of the screen, then you can drag the frame around the preview window to select the tv and the output preview will show you the output video.In this section you can also choose the “zoom mode”, such as “keep original”, “full screen”, “16:9”, “4:3”.

I have to use itunes to enjoy them.
While Now I'm using iPhone transfer and iPod transfer instead

of itunes.These software can import video, audio, photo files

or folders, photos from PC to iPod without iTunes, backup files

from iPod to PC, even transfer DVDs, any videos, any audios to

iPod, then output those files to iPod directly, make iPhone

ringtone as well
