Easy Media Converter for Linux? You bet! Miksoft nails it.

| Most of us have been in a situation from 
| time to time when we needed to convert a 
| video file to another format. We would all 
| claim of course that it was of a family 
| event that we recorded last summer. Ahuh. 
| There have always been tools and programs 
| available to help automate the process, 
| although in many instances the interfaces 
| were cumbersome and confusing. Some on the 
| other hand were very easy to navigate but 
| never seem to work quite right.
| 
| I have used a few converter programs on 
| Linux in the past like, Avidemux, 
| OggConvert, and Pitivi. However, a few 
| months ago I stumbled on a media converter 
| for Linux that I had not heard of before 
| and discovered they had a deb file already 
| created for Ubuntu Linux, so I figured it 
| was worth the few clicks to check it out. I 
| was surprised to discover a simplistically 
| elegant interface although more importantly 
| it also worked perfectly each time I threw 
| a âfamily videoâ at it.
