In this age, multimedia content plays a crucial role for news, entertainment or any other activity that requires audio-visual expression and formatting. This includes searching for a wide array of settings to do the job, handpicking the tools that deliver the best performance, and finding an easy-to-use interface.

One such tool is VideoGet. After loading the image, you can run the application directly. No installation is required, thus no registry entries are encumbering your system. At the first startup, a quick update is performed.

At a glance, you're greeted by available presets with dropdown menus, wrapped up in a minimalistic interface.

Once you input the source link to download content from, the service provider shows up, as well as the domain it depends on. In the same window, you can tick boxes to set a preferred output format, ranging from .avi, .mpg, .wmw, .mp4, .flv, .mov and .3gp, to .mp3, .wav, .ogg and .aac.

A lot of these formats also come with quality compatibility presets for various mobile devices like iPhones, iPads, iPods, Samsung phones and tablets, HTCs and Amazon Kindle, amongst others. The file name editor is located in the same window.

In VideoGet's frontend window, you get a simple table casing the URL, source name (although sometimes not recognized and written as “unknown”), percentage of task completion, and status columns.

The important options reside beneath the table: output format, resolution (width and height), audio quality (up to 320kbps), audio and video encoders (or codecs utilized), video bit rate (up to 10Mb) and audio sample rate (up to 48,000Hz).

The video framerate and audio channels complete the array of settings that compose VideoGet and most of them have a preset mode to restore the initial configuration. Additional options await the user in the frontend and menus, like statistics and logistics.

Oddly and dissatisfyingly enough, downloading from many famous websites doesn't cut it, despite the dropdown menu with supported websites saying otherwise (regardless of the site profile). In our tests, VideoGet leaned towards less known entertainment or obscure sites. For example, Youtube was out of the question.

VideoGet certainly is a good software tool, a two-for-one downloader and converter that puts little strain on system resources. However, its incompatibility with the sites it’s supposed to support for video downloading and conversion may be considered a deal breaker by many users. Even so, in case you’re interested in other websites, you gain a reliable and smart app.
