PATRIZIAF  I personally like the interface and the design. Yes, it is not complete but it is software in development (and free at the moment...): the other functions will come with the time.

I tried it with many videoclips and failed only once.... I ask me what kind of crap you are trying to convert...

You can always use non free software if you are not happy.... BUY and COMPLAIN!

I use mainly other free softwares to convert but I tried this one because it is good to have many different choices and I know that the other softwares that I use are now discontinued and in a couple of months they will stop to work... (Snow Leopard, new iTunes,...). That's why I keep an eye on Video Monkey and others...

HAUNTEDTAPEDECK  I agree with the reply above. Video Monkey hasn't failed on many encodes for me either. The interface is not bad at all, despite having a few obvious, easily remedied errors (for instance the "Overall progresss" spelling error, still apparent in 0.3). I like the simple yet, flexible encoding options, for example, selecting iPod touch then tailoring it for TV output at high quality with a 2 pass encode. It makes it very easy to achieve your desired outcome. Other encoders often often too few choices, or are so configurable as to be overwhelming. I think Video Monkey shows quite a bit of promise.

CANADIANPJ  I do not agree at all that this program is no good. Above all, it works and it works every time for me. It could be a little better on the design front but I personally have no problems with it and hope they keep going.
