iSquint: Convert videos to iPod or PSP
Screenshots
iSquint is a free and efficient tool that allows you to convert videos to play on your iPod or PSP. With its fast and clean conversion process, iSquint makes it easy to transfer video podcasts or other videos to your portable device.
This small and modest application offers a range of features to enhance your video conversion experience. You can choose to optimize for TV or iPod, and use H.264 encoding for better quality. One of the most convenient features is the ability to add your converted videos directly to iTunes, streamlining the process of converting and transferring to your iPod.
While most users will find the slider to set image quality sufficient, advanced users can delve into the additional features, such as cropping the video, setting framerate, bitrate, width, and height.
However, there are a couple of drawbacks to iSquint. The nag screens encouraging users to switch to the developer's other shareware solution, VisualHub, can be quite annoying. These nag screens appear every time you launch iSquint and after every conversion, with no way to disable them. Additionally, the audio quality of the converted videos can be inconsistent, requiring multiple attempts to achieve proper image and audio quality.
Despite these drawbacks, iSquint remains a good free tool for quickly converting videos to the iPod format and saving them in your iTunes library.
