While functional, the app's interface is certainly not enjoyable.

Uninspired interface: All control panels and settings use the same tired design we've been looking at since Windows 95. There is also a 'Restore Defaults' option, which can come in handy if you cannot undo any adjustments you might have made. Note that the compression feature is not compatible with all video formats in our initial attempt at compression, we got an error while trying to compress an MP4 file.Īdvanced settings: Using the dedicated Encoder and Decoder configuration apps, we were able to adjust advanced settings like the compression ratio, encoding type, post-processing, and aspect ratio. ProsĮnhanced video support: If you're encountering a video that you can't play, XviD Video Codec may help you watch it, thanks to its wide support for video formats.įast compression: Through the software's MiniConvert feature, we were able to compress an AVI file from 50MB to 40MB in under a minute, and when we compared the two versions, we couldn't detect any drop in quality. Additionally, you can use the built-in compression software to save disk space by shrinking videos you've watched without negatively impacting their quality. XviD Video Codec will greatly expand the number of playable video formats on your computer.
