Holy CRAP!!!

Very poor software in my view and not just because it only supports AVI format.

15 $ for a buggy tool supporting only AVI format? Come on...

Most developers here behave as if they were living on another planet....

To extract soundtracks from videos (AVI, MPEG, MPG, FLV, DAT, WMV, MOV, MP4, 3GP) and then (why not?) create music videos/movies, putting them together in video montages with filters and mixer layers for FREE:

The sound quality is no good enough? OK, NO Problem!!

How about quickly optimize your MP3 files to an insane sound quality (320 Kbit/s, 48 kHz, Stereo) or just change their bitrate and size in batch, keeping the same level of audio quality and all ID3 tags intact for FREE?

Cons
*Works with AVI videos only -- does not support other video formats
*Buggy
*I haven't downloaded the GOTD version being given out today but AVIToolbox from the developer's website comes with bloatware (Relevant Knowledge) so I suggest you be watchful while installing today's giveaway in case it has it too

Tried this out with three different AVI files and each time got the message 'Unable to open file'. Uninstalling.

Another point, if you go to the developer's website, under 'Awards and Reviews' they claim the 'Editor's Pick' and 'Most Downloaded' awards from Software Informer. Click on one of the graphics and it takes you to the AVIToolbox page on the Software Informer website. There under Awards it says 'This program received 2 awards'. If you then click on this you see the awards. Not the ones claimed on developers website, but the Software Informer '100% clean. No Adware, Spyware or Viruses' and the Softonic rating of 'Average' and underneath that 'Softonic Rating: Not bad'. From what #1 Ashraf has said about the download from the developers website coming with 'Relevant Knowledge' added, I don't think it deserves the '100% Clean' award.

I know it's an old complaint about claims of non-existent awards from websites but why do they do it when they can be found out with just a few mouse clicks?

@ Mac Trinity, post #2: Ashraf's summary at post #1 was obviously intended to provide a quick heads-up. It was therefore quite thoughtful of him to remind any visitor to this page that, contrary to the impression given by this offer's descriptive text on this page:

AVIToolbox is a user-friendly toolbox for common video files operations such as video splitting, audio extraction, picture capture and much more!

that 'common video files' relates, in this instance, to just one type of video file, and thus the 'box' only has one particular tool in it rather than several different tools to deal with several different formats.

@ boozehelps, post #5: I sincerely hope that booze is of help to you. 'S odd, how reminiscent the tone and content of your comments are to that of comments on earlier giveaways from posters of quite different names who for reasons which aren't entirely clear always rush in here to drip malice over any and all contributions freely made by Ashraf.

Is there some underlying reason for this seemingly obsessive need to constantly malign a guy who teams up with GAOTD to provide unbiased information of help to prospective downloaders of an offer of the day??

@ #3, Genghis McCann: agreed. It is commercially counter-productive for any developer to deck out a product with awards that are easily discovered to be anything but. One hopes today's developer will note your comment and take it on board -- after all: GAOTD exists to help developers with useful feedback just as much as it exists to help GAOTDers discover new software and download and use it, free of charge.

Re today's offer: a single tool in a 'video toolbox' is, well, a bit pointless nowadays, bearing in mind that boxes of multiple tools are widely available, both paid-for and free. Thanks then, GAOTD, and thanks, KC Softwares, but the era of single-purpose video software ended a few years ago.

Dear Mac Trinity

The comment of Ashraf ( not Asif)here is leading me to remember that there is many others (free or not)software with more compatibility.
Limited to avi format is limiting the software, not a positive point.
I admit it is not a strong point to introduce ;) but as a reminder, this needed to be said. Comparing it to the competition make it look older. May be it is obvious for some, not for all.
Remember this site is open to all country and to every kind of peoples.
In some country they carry the children, the goats and the rest of it in the same bus, even on the roof if they have to!
Sometime names means nothing or something else.
Please visit dotTech web site (Asraf)and open your mind, it is good to learn and to let the others learning.
Have a good day
