This is an unusually large program for what it does, although it does have a lot of features. It installs a number of its own codecs in its own folder. Does it work? I don't know, it's a significant security risk. I try to balance common-sense security against non-discrimination. I don't discriminate against software from China simply because it's from China, which is known to have an active cyberwarfare program against the U.S. (our own government says so). This software may be perfectly fine, just badly coded. However, I'm not willing to take the risk. It keeps trying to access the Internet, even though I went through its settings and told it not to. Leawo is either Moyea or is associated with them, it contains Moyea code and Moyea routines which keep trying to access the Internet. When I tried to perform a conversion, it requested direct disk access, which no ordinary application should require, and which I block. Apparently, it won't run without direct disk access, which I'm not willing to grant. It also keeps trying to access its autorun entry, which may be harmless, but most software only tries to access that when you change the setting. If this is safe software, then they need to do some very serious code cleanup. With so many security risks from a single product, I'm simply not willing to take the chance.

THE GOOD:

*** Smooth download, installation, and registration on Vista x32 OS.

*** Smooth access without need to use Run As Administrator rights option.

*** Simple, clean, pretty, easy-to-navigate User Interface.

*** Full, rich-featured, clear, easy-to-understand Help Menu.

*** Easy and intuitive to use program without reading Help Menu.

*** Allows for FLV file conversion to 20 different video output formats, including: ASF, XVid, AVC (MPEG-4), AVI, AVI-L (Lossless), AVI (with DVD Codec), DV format, VOB, FLV-Flash (H.264), MOV, MP-4, AVC(MP-4), MPEG-1, MPEG-2, RM, SVCD, TS, VCD, VOB (MPEG-2), WMV.

*** Allows for trim, crop, effect, logo, and text customization options of FLV file prior to conversion to other video-format outputs.

ACTUAL USAGE:

FLV file (1.1 MB in size) was converted to ASF/AVI/VOB files in 20/15/12 seconds, respectively. Very easy, smooth, and quick operation.

PERCEIVED DRAWBACKS: None as far as I can tell thus far.

SUMMARY: Definite two-thumbs-up for today's GiveAway. Thanks much, GOTD and Leawo, for sharing this wonderful program with us.

By the way, for those who miss today's GiveAway, an Open Source option is Media Coder.

Hi,

Installed fine on 32 bit XP Pro sp3.

I've just converted 2 flv's flawlessly, however there seems to be a slight bug. Once you have selected a file it's out put format is set by the current 'style' as they put it, thus changing the output format has no effect once a file is loaded. I had to deselect the file, reselect another output format and then select the file again.

Apart from that it seems to work very well.

Agree totally, my firewall picks up the fact that it's trying to modify Moyea.

I block it from accessing the Internet as well and denied the cookies it tries to add every visit.

I'm really considering building an app, joining the affiliate program and making money by deceiving people with re-packages software.
