The program includes batch processing to handle many files in one go, and it aims to preserve visual quality while keeping conversion times reasonable.
Notable capabilities

Speed and quality considerations
The tool focuses on delivering good-looking results without excessively long encoding times. As with most converters, final quality and speed depend on source material, chosen settings, and your PC’s hardware. Using lower bitrates or smaller resolutions reduces conversion time and file size, while higher settings produce better image quality.
