Thank you!!

You think that grey rectangle to the right of the files list would be used as a selected image previewer... Oh and another example of this devlopers BAD programming practices all the open source programs are not installed into the programs installation folder but into the "1AV Image Converter\ffmpeg" subfolder of the logged in users Ducuments folder AND in the next subfolder called .\Temp the program pre-converts multi-image files like multipage TIF files or multi-resolution ICO files into individual JPG renditions of the original images which is VERY bad since JPG is a lossy format it ensures that the extracted and pre-converted intermediate image files will be damaged compared to the originals!

Another bug... If I delete one of the files from the GUI the Temp image?-?.jpg files for it remains... and if I exit the program so the list of files is discarded those temp files SHOULD BE DELETED on removal from the list or destruction of the list on exit but they are not! They are only deleted on the next run of the program! If I used this to batch convert say 10000 images it would duplicate them in the incorrectly located temp folder and leave them there wasting space until the program is restarted at some time in the future.

This apears to have been abandond as far as development is concerend with this build likely being created to auto-authenticate the giveaway over the internet during installation for THIS giveaway date as opposed to when this was last given away it had a different giveaway date so had to be recompiled the last version showing in the version history for this is 1.0.0.90 back in 2017 see http://www.pcwinsoft.com/1av-image-converter/history.asp oddly the version they are offering on THEIR website is 1.0.1.0 dated 18th August 2017 so the giveaway version is based on the OLDER 1.0.0.90 build not the current still ancient build! Also this product is just a simple user interface on the two open source products FFMPEG.EXE and MAGICK.EXE from https://imagemagick.org/script/license.php and both products are not having their licenses distributed with them like they are supposed to have been. Also FFMPEG is built using the compile time switches to include GPLv3 code so is covered by the GPLv3 license and not the LGPLv* license which would have permitted its inclusion in a commercial closed source project which GPLv3 does not... So this developer is stealing GPLv3 opensource code and pretending it is their own! As with previous giveaway of this 18th August 2017 https://www.giveawayoftheday.com/1av-image-converter/ it too claimed windows 2000 compatability but the program requires at least .NET 4.0 which was NEVER produced for Windows 2000.

In fact http://www.pcwinsoft.com/1av-image-converter/requirements.asp states it requires .NET 4.5 and requires at least Windows Vista even though FFMPEG and ImageMagick both will run in the versions provided under XP without issue... I don't have a working windows 2000 machine so cannot test them under that.

That's a lot of formats but I'm missing frx and ico formats.

This was given away before on 8/19/2017. The .exe file was dated 4/7/2017.

While this is a very helpful program, installed easily last time and has not presented any problems, it seems that the developer would have found "something" to improve in over 2 years!

Anyway, I have had many opportunities to be grateful and appreciative of this helpful software over the past 2 years.

Thanks again PCWINSOFT & GAOTD!

For the support WebP has a small applause (small, because setting the quality of conversion to WebP is a joke - only an indefinite slider - you do not know from which side is better quality and which is worse :D) but for the lack of drag'n'drop in the program from 2019 - a huge minus.
Developers, look how it was done in the free XnConvert!
Besides, the interface of the program does not support (at least in my case) the 125% scaling (at 1600x900 resolution) - after starting it does not even see the options, you need to stretch the window to appear :D
19,95 USD? I wouldn't even give $1.95.

Adding a tool to edit the EXIF data would be a very helpful feature.

FYI. Playing with the program and attempted to convert a jpg to cr2 with 200% image size increase. Probably shouldn't
have... the program froze and even Task Manager could not end it, had to reboot.

To be improved: ability to choose where the program will install instead of installing it on C:\Program Files (x86) without asking!

I have a Nikon D5600 which of course shoots NEF files. I have let my licence go on Lightroom and as I am not a pro converting the files was fine by me. I have been using other software to convert the files from NEF to TIFF or DNG to enable me to work on the images. I tried to convert NEF files to the two different formats and sadly on both occasions, it failed. Now deleted.

Installed and run no problem, very useful. Thank you

Include Apple's HEIF & HEIC formats

It works. I just ran a test, converting a .JPG to .TIF format. Not something that I would normally do, but an interesting test. Viewing the two through a photo image viewer that I use for initial edits, Fast Picture Viewer, they looked identical, even zoomed in. It also has a watermarking feature, for the center and the four corners. You can add text, and choose the font, size and opacity, or an image from a file. I did not test the image part.

Tempting offer, but as I don't use 80% of these formats or can use my graphics prog to batch convert I'll politely decline

Thank so much for this lovely software! Now I can convert some of my imges to svg format for my whiteboard projects!

Lifetime license? Wow, I promise to look out for your company products in the future to see the ones I could buy and massively recommend for contacts. Thanks loads!!

Used to be,PCWinSoft always had an unecessary labryinthical registration process,perhaps because they thought,in error, someone wanted to steal their Software.I doubt much has changed,perhaps I could be wrong.("Palm Trees" to verify "I'm not a Robot" today...welcome change from cars,buses,bicycles,signs,stoplights,crosswalks,bridges,etc.)

I am receiving an error which reads as "Error: Cannot communicate with the server"
