I’m giving away ten licenses for uRex Video Converter Platinum software ($40 list price) on my geek dad blog. The software converts movies from one one format to another format. For instance, I used the software to convert one of my DVDs into a format that can play on my Nook Color e-reader. It took awhile because even though the Nook Color has 8GB of built-in memory, there’s only 1 gig for non-B&N content. After some trial and error, I was able to convert my movie into a 362 meg mp4 file. Now my toddler can watch the Pixar Cars movie when he gets cranky on the road. If you want a license for uRex Video Converter Platinum software, just leave a comment below by December 9, 2011.
What I like about uRex Video Converter Platinum

- You can also use the software to convert audio files (MP3, AAC, WMA, WMV, MKA, M4A, OGG, AU, AIFF, FLAC)
- Includes free lifetime software upgrades
- You can crop, clip, split and merge video with the software (I have not tried these features yet)
What I didn’t like about uRex Video Converter Platinum
- You can’t convert directly from a DVD (you need to rip it to your computer first with another software package)
- The conversion took longer than predicted by the software (something like 500% of the estimated time)
- The converted file is larger than predicted (1G instead of 80M)
- It takes a long time to convert files (this seems to be the case with other video conversion software too)
- There isn’t an optimized setting for the Nook Color/Tablet and Amazon Fire, which was why I had to resort to trial and error
Like that you can also use it to convert audio files
Includes free lifetime software upgrades is a great thing
