The number of video and audio file formats available today is quite impressive and it's really difficult to find a media player which can support all these formats. Instead of trying to find a player which offers support for all these formats, you could just convert your desired video and audio files to formats which can be played by a specific software or media device.

In this situation, you could just use Media Buddy. This Windows application enables you to convert almost any media file to a new format. When running the program, you can add your desired media files to the program's interface in two ways, either by selecting several files or by adding the complete media folder to the application. When each media file is added to the program, Media Buddy automatically analyzes it and displays the format and quality settings.

In order to convert files, you can just select one of the many profiles available. Media Buddy includes conversion profiles for popular devices, like iPad, iPod, Zune, PlayStation and others, but it also allows you to directly select the output video or audio format. What's more, you can customize the quality settings for each output format. Beginners shouldn't worry about configuring quality settings, as the program features a simple slider which should be adjusted in order to select the quality level as a percent. Media Buddy is able to convert several media files at the same time and it supports hardware acceleration. Still, you will need to have a compatible nVIDIA or ATI video card for this feature to work.

Besides converting media files to new formats, Media Buddy can also burn media files to CDs or DVDs. The Windows burning feature will still be used, but you will be able to add files to the burning queue with one click.

Pros

It offers support for a large number of video and audio file formats. What's more, you can convert files to new formats by choosing various profiles. Furthermore, the quality of the output file can be adjusted with the help of a slider. Moreover, it uses video hardware acceleration in order to speed up the conversion process.

Cons

The trial version can work for only 30 days. With the help of Media Buddy you can easily convert all your media files to new formats.
