FootageStudio Editor's Review

With price of video recorders coming down with time and Smartphones of present generation featuring HD video recording capability, PC users are being left with increasing amount of videos to deal with. The reality is you will find such videos, including those downloaded from the web, in varying formats and resolutions. When it comes to backing up those videos for personal or other needs, it makes sense to get them converted to a format that fits your need the best. To cut a long story short, you will require a capable video conversion application. There are several such applications but you may choose Acrovid FootageStudio HD. It not only converts videos from one format to another but also lets you carry out various experiments involving resolution and frame rates etc.

The app does not take up much disk space and supports Windows XP and later versions in 32 and 64 bit editions. Acrovid recommends using a multi core CPU enabled PC since the app is optimized to take advantage of multiple CPU cores. However, those with CPUs with SSE2 128-bit processing feature will also be benefited. The app is optimized for NVIDIA CUDA series GPUs as well.

Acrovid FootageStudio HD offers support for a wide range of video formats, both for input and output. It supports formats like WMV, AVI, and MP4 etc. The app has a unique single window interface that reduces clutter and keeps workflow simple for users. Adjusting and configuring options is easy. On left side of the UI, you can choose source video. Here you can make some adjustment like trimming. You may capture video from cameras directly. On right side of UI, you can specify output video options. One nice thing is that the app previews the video before processing begins.

The main processing settings are found under some tabs on the app UI. You may convert the videos, choose presets like NTSC, web formats or HD settings. You can also tweak with audio settings of the files. Acrovid FootageStudio HD comes with advanced video quality tweaking options that help you enhance resultant video quality.

If you want to convert several video files at one go, the app’s Smart Batch processing feature will come in handy. You can pick from numerous SD or HD video formats for batch conversion. Its bundled motion estimation techniques lets users change frame rate of video files to achieve realistic motion video experience. The USP of the software is its ‘Synthetic Overcrank’ feature that lets you apply a superb slow motion effect to video clips. Another worthy component is its Accu.Denoiser tool which eliminates noise from video clips during processing. For more artistic effects, apply various filters included with the app.

Positive Points:
•    Support for CUDA GPU, multi -core CPU.
•    Wide video format support.
•    ‘Synthetic Overcrank’ and Accu.Denoiser are handy features.
•    Simple, single window UI.

Negative Points:
•    Nothing in particular.

Conclusion:
Acrovid FootageStudio HD is capable and feature rich video conversion tool that is targeted at intermediate to advanced users. It supports videos in several formats and resolutions and can convert them to wide types as well. While processing, it can apply filters and change frame rates or resolutions too. The inclusion of a video noise removal tool is really prudent. Synthetic Overcrank slow motion feature is also ideal for specific situations. Despite being a feature rich app, its workflow is simple and interface does not look cluttered. Users with latest multi core CPUs and CUDA GPU units will benefit the most. The app does not come for cheap, but its extensive feature set and superb performance is definitely worth the investment.
