*SUPER* is a useful media tool that both *encodes and renders media files*
into a variety of different formats. The evolution of computers reveals a
trend toward multimedia desktop apps where users can listen to music, watch
videos, surf the net, work and view photo albums. If you've gotten hold of
media files, you've probably had to convert the files to transfer them on a
different device or in order to play it in another application at one time or
another. SUPER makes audio and video conversion a breeze thanks to a well
presented interface and a slew of options. SUPER's single window interface
is divided into audio and video and the selection of output options is done
via the three dropdown menus at the top. There are quite a few formats
available. SUPER allows you to convert movies and music to play on recent
devices such as Apple iPod, Sony PSP and 3gp for use on Sony Ericsson and
Nokia mobile phones. The *huge bit rate menu*, from 64 to 9792 Kbps, means
you can truly optimize and quicken the conversion process. Unfortunately,
SUPER only offers *2 video codec outputs* (H263 and MPEG-4) and *3 audio
codecs* (AAC, AMR wideband and narrowband). On the audio side, SUPER allows
you to select your language from individual tracks, but audio is limited to
one channel and one sampling frequency (8000). It seems SUPER is *more suited
to video conversion*. Luckily SUPER includes recognized encoders such as ff
mpeg or mencoder, ensuring a decent conversion process for both audio and
video. Use the buttons at the bottom of the interface to play files and check
their quality after having converted them. The Player Options button gives
you the chance to tweak video features such as aspect, saturation, hue,
brightness and contrast. All files converted or waiting to be converted are
visible in a list and you can verify the streaming link and output status.
*SUPER is a very open media converter that even the klutziest of users will
find easy enough to use.Download *SUPER 2012 build 53* in Softonic*
