Format Factory, as the name suggests, is a program with a very specialized use: converting the format of video, music and image files. Or more specifically, converting them so that the files can be viewed better on a portable device. The program is free (although it does have advertisements) and offers many useful functions, all with a simple interface. It supports virtually any video, audio and image file format you can think of.
Some of the main functions you can perform with Format Factory include:
• Ripping content from CDs and DVDs
• Convert image, video and audio files to different file formats
• Change file formats to save disk space or facilitate sharing
• Make video files compatible to be played on your mobile device, PSP, PS3, iPhone, and BlackBerry device
• Combine multiple files into one file
• Create a watermark for photos and images
The best part about Format Factory, aside from being free, is how intuitive it is to use. This program is perfect for people who don’t necessarily have specialized or highly technical knowledge. You don’t even have to be particularly computer savvy to get the most out of this multimedia conversion tool.
