Review of Free Video Converter by Freemake.com

If you take a video with a smart phone, and accidentally turn it on its side, it is tricky to flip it back upright.  You can do it in Windows and Mac if you have a compatible file and are willing to look up the procedures, but some so-called "smart" phones use 3gp formats which are a dumbed down flash format and won’t play on PC (very annoying .

I downloaded this free app called Free Video Converter by Freemake.com.  Very easy to convert and flip at the same time.  With an additional free download, you can also download YouTube videos and convert them to Quicktime or WMV in one easy step. 

User interface is dirt simple and it even has simple editing tools for cutting. And it is true freeware as opposed to a free trial or free download.  No ad-ware evident. 

I downloaded a 3gp video from my HTC TouchPro cellphone, opened it in Free Video Converter, clicked "edit" where I was able to flip it to the proper orientation, and then converted it to WMV.  I could have converted it for YouTube, Quicktime, or any number of other formats. Note that I couldn't accomplish this in Adobe Suite.

 I give it five stars.  *****
