P. S. If you want to know all the details about online business, get my book "" as a gift.

The book has already received a huge amount of positive reviews.
Why do I need to convert a video file to another format? there are several answers to this question.
For example, you have several movies, or just private video captured on camera is very big size... You decide to make a copy and burn it to disc. But it so happened that a small part of the file does not fit on one disk. And to scatter on two discs is somehow not very convenient. I would like all information to be stored in one place. This makes it even easier to find everything you need.
Now, if you choose the appropriate format and convert all the files that did not fit on the disk, we can get an excellent result. In another format, they can take up much less space.
Or let's say that the same large-size film was decided to be watched on a tablet or phone. And with the memory of the device the same problems as with the disk.
Not every video player is capable of playing videos of any format. If you downloaded the video unknown format and your player cannot start it, so you need to convert the video to another format. Do not change the player. Just before that, find out what formats the player accepts.
The same applies to players in mobile phone. Modern phones can play mp4 video, but for more simple models, 3GP format is suitable.
And remember this popular editor Windows Movie maker... At the time when everyone was using the operating room Windows system XP, it was the best free video editing software ever. I even now use this editor sometimes. There is only one drawback in this editor. It is no longer updated, and therefore does not work with modern formats. We have to reformat into the old, and well-known format-AVI.
These are the reasons why you should be able to work with a video converting software.
Working with a video file
There is nothing difficult here. Open the program and insert any video into the converter window. This can be done in two ways. The first is to click on the "VIDEO" button and select the video file we need in the explorer window that opens. 
And the second way is to simply drag a file from a folder or from the desktop to the program window. And if we are not going to edit it, that is, cut out unnecessary fragments, then at the very bottom of the program window we select the format into which we want to convert the file.
Please note that not all format selection icons are on the panel. On both sides of the panel there is green arrows that you can use to scroll through the entire list of icons.
Press the left mouse button on the desired format. A small window "Conversion Options" will open. In the "Profile" parameters, we can choose the size of the video frame. But it's better to leave the original (default) and don't bother with it.
Next, select the location to save the converted video. On the right under the white triangle in the blue square are the folders where you saved the last time, and with the help of the next blue button we can select any place on the computer and save there. Next setting"1 pass (fast)" and "2 passes slow". I did not notice the difference in quality. Perhaps in terms of volume. In 1 pass, the output file became 46.9MB, and in 2 passes, 48.2MB. 
This I told you about converting video to another format.
But even though Freemake is called a converter, it still has a small editor built in. It does not have any super functions there, but it is very convenient to crop video in it. Personally, I only cut out unnecessary fragments from the video in Freemake. I would like to point out one drawback. There are no smooth transitions when cropping. It turns out as if it was cobbled together from pieces that abruptly break off. But when you combine several videos into one file, then you can turn on the effect smooth transition from one video file to another.
Moreover, there is one function, it is the replacement of the sound in the video. For example, you were filming with a camera somewhere in a noisy place, for example, at a factory. The video turned out to be interesting, but the noise, crackling, creaking and other sounds only cut on the ears. Then we put our sound track in mp3 format. open the drop-down list and select "Add audio"
Some laughter !!
