What does Bigasoft Total Video Converter do?

It converts video and audio files between formats and prepares them for playback on specific devices or import into video editors. Supported inputs and outputs include HEVC/H.265, MP4, MKV, AVI, MOV, WMV, WebM, VP9, and Apple ProRes, plus audio formats such as MP3, FLAC, AAC, and WAV. A built-in editor adds trim, crop, merge, watermark, and subtitle options, and NVIDIA CUDA acceleration shortens encoding time on supported GPUs. In practice, you use it to turn camcorder AVCHD footage into a phone-ready MP4, or to extract an MP3 soundtrack from a music video.

Does Bigasoft Total Video Converter rip or burn DVDs?

No. It works on file-based media and does not rip encrypted physical DVD or Blu-ray discs, nor does it author or burn video to disc. It can still convert DVD video files such as VOB that are already saved on your computer, but pulling a movie directly off a disc requires a separate tool. Bigasoft offers disc handling in different products, so buyers who need disc archiving should not choose this converter for that task. Treat it as a format-conversion and device-prep utility rather than a full DVD suite.

Which video and audio formats does it support?

On the video side it covers TiVo, HEVC/H.265, MP4, MKV, AVI, Xvid, DivX, H.264, WMV, MOV, FLV, F4V, 3GP, WTV, MXF, Apple ProRes MOV, WebM, VP8/VP9, and AVCHD (MTS, M2TS, MOD, TOD), up to 720p and 1080p HD. Audio formats include MP3, DTS, WMA, AAC, WAV, OGG, FLAC, APE, AIFF, and Apple Lossless (ALAC). It can also extract the audio track directly from a video file. This breadth means you can take an MKV with DTS audio and output an MP4 with AAC that a standard phone or tablet will play.

Can it convert footage for iMovie and Final Cut Pro?

Yes, on the Mac build it converts camcorder and other source formats to Apple ProRes or DV for Final Cut Pro and Final Cut Express, and to MP4 or MOV for iMovie. This solves the common problem where AVCHD, MTS, or MKV clips will not import cleanly into an Apple editor. You transcode the footage to an editor-friendly codec first, then drop it straight onto the timeline. This capability is specific to the macOS version and is a practical reason Mac editors pick it over a plain file converter.

Who should choose Bigasoft Total Video Converter?

It fits users who regularly change video containers or codecs and push clips to devices or editing software without wanting a full media suite. The batch queue combined with CUDA acceleration handles bulk jobs like converting a folder of camcorder clips to MP4 in one pass, and the device presets remove guesswork about codec, resolution, and bitrate. It is a weaker fit if you need to rip encrypted discs, do serious 4K timeline editing, or produce advanced effects, since the editor here is limited to trim, crop, watermark, and basic adjustments. Choose it for straightforward format conversion and device preparation, not as a replacement for a full editor.

Frequently asked questions about Bigasoft Total Video Converter

Is Bigasoft Total Video Converter available for Mac?

Yes, there is a separate Mac build, but it is an older release (version 5.x) targeting OS X up to El Capitan 10.11. On current macOS and Apple Silicon it may not run reliably, so confirm compatibility before buying the Mac edition. The Windows build (version 6.x) has received more recent updates.

Does it download online or YouTube videos?

It includes a built-in web video download feature that can grab online clips in resolutions up to 1080p and convert them to your chosen format. This is a secondary function, so for heavy downloading Bigasoft's dedicated Video Downloader Pro is the more capable option.

How is it different from Bigasoft's single-format converters?

Bigasoft sells many format-specific tools such as MP4 Converter, AVI Converter, MKV Converter, and 3GP Converter, each focused on one output type. Total Video Converter is the integrated, general-purpose product that covers those formats together, so you do not need to buy a separate converter for each target format.
