Alternatives to Format Factory for Linux with any license

HandBrake

HandBrake is an open-source, multithreaded video transcoder: it converts digital media from one format to another, compressing the files in the process.
- it only converts to and from mp4 and mkv, is not useful for other formats. Guest • Oct 2016 • 9 agrees and 3 disagrees
- it not convert SWF to other video formats Guest • Nov 2015 • 6 agrees and 2 disagrees
- I converted from .mpg to .mkv and it works perfectly. Took me a little time to find out how to queue a bunch of videos - but it turned out to be simple enough. Mp3 conversion is unavailable though - I used Format Factory for that when I worked in Windows. Still - for video it's really number 1! Guest • Jan 2016 • 2 agrees and 1 disagrees
- Handbrake is free, simple, and awesome! Guest • Aug 2016
