We are determined we should define video converter before we analyze the situations when it should be used since it might be the first time you hear this term.

Video converter is specialized tool developed for conversion of movie files originally saved in one format into another. Compared to other converters, this one is great importance because there are more than 40 video formats, each of which requires specialized software. If you do not feel like wasting your time, money and nerves on the purchase of 40 different video players, you should try multipurpose video converter.

There are at least 4 different situations when you download and install a converter on your computer.

Cellular phones
You simply cannot imagine upload of videos from cellular phones to computers and vice versa without a video converter. The fact that these devices have different capability means that video files compatible with computers are not compatible with mobile phones. The latter only support videos in 3gp and flv, whereas the former can play a much wider variety of formats. Before you upload a movie onto your Nokia, Samsung, Blackberry or other device, make sure to convert it to 3gp/flv from mpeg, avi, wmv, mkv, etc.

Apple devices
You will find yourself in a situation similar to described above when you need to upload videos onto/from Apple devices. Just as it is the case with cell phones, iPods, iPhones, iPads, and Apple TVs only support certain formats. If you want to make your videos compatible with Apple gadgets, launch the converter to properly process files before you upload them.

HD Cameras
You simply cannot imagine your life without a video converter if you have a high definition (HD) video camera. HD movies you make will not be suitable for playback on your computer or TV unless you convert m2ts to avi or convert m2ts to mpeg. This is the case because HD format is not supported by standard devices.

Internet
You will need to convert videos almost every time you try to upload them onto YouTube, Facebook and MySpace. Due to the fact that webmasters do not allow for uploading of videos in any formats except avi, wmv, mp4, mpeg, and 3gp, you will have to convert all videos into the these formats. If you are looking for easy and fast conversion of video files, you are recommended to try Total Movie Converter developed by CoolUtils. You can get it from www.coolutils.com for only $29.90.
