123 DVD Converter is a very easy-to-use piece of software that converts DVDs into some of the most popular video formats on the market, including AVI, WMV, MP4, 3GP and Flash.
In addition, the application extracts the audio track of every DVD and exports it to WAV format, which can be later processed into any other audio format using dedicated software solutions.
With tons of information available online, including a step-by-step guide to assist beginners, 123 DVD Converter is aimed at both rookies and more experienced users, providing a very intuitive and easy to navigate interface.
The application basically provides three different copy modes, so you can choose either to transfer the entire disc, the movie clip or certain chapters, with particular settings for each of them.
You can always configure a new project straight from the main window, which means you can pick the output format, the audio track and the subtitle from the get go.
Experienced users should be delighted to hear that 123 DVD Converter also boasts a separate settings screen with detailed options for each of the supported formats. While the AVI extensions can be customized with a new resolution or frame rate, MP4 fans are able to choose new audio and video bitrates, as well as the MP4 codec they wish to use.
Of course, the conversion process goes smooth, but it usually takes some time, with a moderate amount of hardware resources needed to complete the task.
To sum up, 123 DVD Converter is a handy application that does exactly what it says. It adopts a very user friendly approach, while offering decent conversion tools and support for the most common video formats out there.
