This may not be the place but I thought I’d give it a shot.

I need some guidance on video conversion software. I’ve pirated & tried Aiseesoft Video Converter, Wondershare UniConverter, VideoProc, Winxvideo AI & ffmpeg although I don’t do very well with the command line and can’t find one solution to do everything I need.

I’m seeking support for multiple file processing, custom profiles (resolution, aspect, etc.), all modern CODECs including HEVC, AV1/Opus, basic video editing, AMD Hardware Acceleration (have a Radeon RX 470 graphics card), hard and soft subtitles, audio normalization & constant rate or target bitrate control modes.

I’ve only ever found one software that would do all of these things & that was VSO’s ConvertXtoVideo. Unfortunately, the company has downsized & only has 1 or 2 programmers and while they claim to be working on an UHD Converter, all they have right now is an Alpha version which, basically, does nothing.

If anyone can steer me in the direction of a free or paid software that will do most of what I’m wanting I’d be very grateful.

    Yes you can do custom resolutions, it’s on the top right. You can chose source, scale to a specific res, or fix H/W and it’ll calculate the other.

    There’s a section for Add subtitles as well. You’d have to play around with it some, I don’t know all the ins and outs.

      Thanks for the input on Shutter ramble!

      I’ve been working on and off with it for a while now and Love it except for a couple of things I’m trying to wrap my head around.

      I’m trying to understand how to Rip DVD & BluRay with it and how to Burn In “Soft Subs” in an MKV container.

      Also, I’m trying to figure out if I want to re-do my library with H.265, H.266 or AV1 in either VBR, CBR or CQ. So many options, it’s insane cool!
