My question about AVAST calling the generated EXE a virus was deleted (lots of details in the deleted comment). Can the publisher do that?

Anyway if it gets picked up as a virus its no good changing your settings or calling it a false positive (how do we know it is?). The only possible reason I can think of to use this tool is to give the video to someone else. I'm not going to do that with something that gets reported as a virus.

If it is something you need, you will understand the reason for needing it. If you don't understand the reason, then no doubt youi do not need it :)

This is Great for the Person that needs it like wanting to protect Videos etc,,,,Why havent any Video Downloaders come around I been waiting for months & months :-) fast video Downloader is the Best ,,Please....Love your site been on for years purchased great programs ,,,your the Best GOTD !!

Ok so I'm getting a distinct lack of imagination surfacing here in relation to this app. Shame on y'all!
I renamed an image file somebody'd been pestering me for, since I don't know how many years, to hypergolbalmegavirus, ran it through this software and made an .exe out of it, then sent it to them. The following dialogue then occurred . . .

"Just got an exe file called hyperglobalmegavirus from you! Have you been hacked?"
"No, thats the image you've been pestering me for for the last number of years, and as it happens my system has now crashed and I may have lost the original in the process. Looks like you have the only copy! Enjoy!"
"Er . . ."

So there you go. Lotsa larfs!

They are going made on video file conversion at the minute haha? Maybe spice things up a bit and vary the software of the day to appeal to different peoples needs? Because the people who got the software the first time, likely won't need another program that does the same job the next day.

And as has been said, I doubt that very few people have a use for today's giveaway haha. And the ones who do won't be on here looking for it.

This is for business. To protect video from editing.
I read that some webinars are laid out not only in their extension, but also a special player is needed.

I got this previously. It works fine! Win 7 Ultimate 64b.

Thanks GOTD and PCWinSoft, i have been waiting for long time :) Love this software.
But, @PCWinSoft I need your help: my exe converted file suspect as file that contains virus and deleted by my local av (smadav). Please your solutions. thanks.

Don't quite understand Giveaways download link. Share to Facebook does nothing bar share to Facebook, you still have to enter an email address to get a download link. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong :-)

So if I understand the purpose of this software it is basically 2 fold?

1. Enable the standalone Windows playback of a video via a .exe file that eliminates the requirement for the right codecs?

2. To protect the video from being edited?

I ask because there is nothing at all on the website that gives the reasoning for the software to exist, leaving it for prospective users to have to try and figure it out for themselves.

As for case 1. once upon a time when video standards were at a point where it could be difficult to play a great range of file formats without requiring multiple apps, some of which could have been paid only offerings, this would have been very useful but far less so today with greater versatility of most apps, including a slew of free ones.

Case 2 has more reason going for it, so could well be a useful tool for some that want protection but don't want to mess with applying DRM protection, which may also not be suitable for all case uses.

It's not something that I myself could find a use for but could be of benefit for some, albeit a likely small base, most of which would IMO likely be business orientated.

Why in the world? Can anybody today trust some video that have executable file extension? I do not. I never ever will start watching some photos/videos that have .EXE(|.COM|.BAT|.SCR etc.) file extension. Okay, I do not click anything that comes via email or so.
