erightsoft SUPER Audio and Video Converter

We bought a hard drive camcorder to use for events that we would like to vodcast. It is easy to use and we can save the video files right from the camcorder to the computer without having to capture the video.

However, I discovered that the audio compression used on the camcorder is Dolby Digital. The audio quality is wonderful. Dolby Digital also is proprietary and I have found that many video editing software programs do not recognize the format. It will not work in the QuickTime Player. So far I have only been able to play it in Windows Media Player.

None of the video editing software (iVideo, Adobe Premier or Final Cut Pro) on our Mac can open the audio portion of the file. On the Window’s side, Audacity does not recognize it and neither does Adobe Audition. I do not currently have video editing software on my laptop so I am not sure about the Windows version of Adobe Premier.

Thankfully, a person on the Audacity forum mentioned a free converter tool called SUPER© from erightsoft.com (http://www.erightsoft.com/home.html). I downloaded and installed it. I am very happy to say it works great and it will convert a batch of files.

Did I mention it is free?

I had the same problem with my video recorder and the software not recognizing it. I work at a company that deals with computers a lot so I asked someone what I could do and they told me about video converter software called Movavi. Their site is <a href= "http://www.movavi.com/videoconverter/"> The software worked great and I haven't had any troubles since then! Hope this helps!
