Good video converter?

bobright · Jan 13, 2013, 10:12 PM

I went ahead and got Toast Titanium thinking I'd be able to make some DVD discs with a bunch of AVI video I have...turns out its not able to and it requires some type of codec?!

I guess it needs to be mpg is there any good video converters out there for Mac, to where I won't lose quality for it?

Mpeg Streamclip has been great for me. Especially for Batch jobs.

Which settings do I use so that way I don't lose any or much quality?

iVI (Available in the Mac App Store) is a very good one!

My money is on mpeg streamclip, only potential problem is it zeros timecode.
