Lenogo has reached a new level of standard in user satisfaction by combining both Lenogo DVD to iPod Converter and Lenogo Video to iPod Converter (two of the most powerful video to iPod converter applications on the market) into a single PowerPack.
With an excellent set of tools and its high conversion speed this suite will definitely get serious iPod users rocking and rolling!
Feature Set (4.5/5)
Lenogo DVD to iPod Converter and Lenogo Video to iPod Converter are based on similar implementations of the same engine, but with slightly variations designed to optimize the conversion process. As a result, both applications offer excellent conversion speed.
Lenogo DVD to iPod Converter can convert any standard DVD-video disc into iPod compatible video format (MP4) in a single step, eliminating the need for creating huge temporary files on your hard disk and achieving fast operation at the same time. The application lets you choose your desired audio track and subtitle track, and it also supports partial conversions (i.e. you can select and convert only desired segments of a DVD movie into iPod video). The user is also able to preview the DVD movie as it is converted. As a valuable addition, the user can stop or pause the conversion process at any time and the produced unfinished output file will still be playable.
Lenogo Video to iPod Converter allows conversion of most popular file types (including AVI, MPG, MPEG, ASF, WMV, MOV, 3GP, AMR, FLV, FLIC, SWF, RM, RMVB and others) into iPod, and supports Indeo, MPEG-1, MPEG-2, H.264, H.263, H.261, WMV1, WMV2, WMV9, RV10, RV20, RV30, RV40, SVQ1, SVQ3, QT4, QT5, QT6, QT7, FLAC and Cinepak video codecs, as well as MP3, MP2, AAC, HE AAC, QDM2 (QT), OGG, Vorbis, AC3, RA114, RA288, COOK and WMA audio codecs.
Resulting iPod files have a very high quality, but are slightly bigger than those generated by other converters. That is the only negative thing we found.
Ease Of Use (5/5)
Both Lenogo DVD to iPod Converter and Lenogo Video to iPod Converter can detect your hardware configuration and decide on whatever conversion settings are best automatically, so the user will not have to deal with complicated options and difficult choices.
The overall interface is clean and sober, yet attractive and, most importantly, extremely easy to use. Any conversion job can be made in three steps: Select the source file - start conversion – enjoy your iPod video. It just cannot get simpler than that.
Ease Of Installation And Setup (5/5)
Installation of the Lenogo DVD to iPod Converter + Lenogo Video to iPod Converter PowerPack is simple enough to ensure anyone can do it.
The process of installing the suite is even simpler than the installation of both applications on their own (Lenogo DVD to iPod Converter and Lenogo Video to iPod Converter are also sold separately, although the discount you get by buying the whole suite is more than attractive).
Quality Of Copy (5/5)
The quality of the PowerPack converted iPod files is simply excellent, being this suite one of the most accurate conversion packs available today on the market. The results are impressive as the iPod files are very good copies of the original DVDs or Video files.
Software Stability (5/5)
None of the applications on the suite has shown any erratic behavior or harmful interactions with other programs when tested under several Windows systems. The Lenogo DVD to iPod Converter + Lenogo Video to iPod Converter PowerPack behaves perfectly even when running on the minimum system requirements.
