Format factory is free and does EVERYTHING! VIDEO and Audio!

I installed this program from another giveaway site a few months ago. It was listed as the same pro version with a pre-registered name a serial key, however after a few days when I launched the program it said the name and serial key was not valid for this "pro" version and I had to uninstall it.

I am not sure if it was a mistake on the sites registration or Zortam changing their mind in the hope that you buy the lifetime licence.

As soon as the portable version wanted to install, it went. Just in case, PORTABLE means no install, it runs without installing, All the other portable I have works like that.

I can not download the file, I keep on getting error messages, “the file has been removed or damaged”
Have they decided to remove it after several thumb down and low rating?
tried several browsers with no lucky, mozilla, opera aand chrome

I actually bought and paid for this awful software some time ago in order to convert .wav files to .mp3. Sadly, it simply does not work, and messages to their amusingly-named 'Support' desk are ignored - despite assurances that they will answer within 24 hours. I would ask for my money back if I thought there was any chance that they'd honour the request. Very poor.

Webroot identified a threat: bytescoutinstaller.exe;
infection:Adware.Installcore

Should there be concern?

Have a commercial compilation CD with original artists from the nineteen sixties Correctly recognised and ripped by Windows media player and instructed todays giveaway to download album art and it retrieved a completely differnt CD's artwork from a Nina Simmone cover album singing hits from the sixties... FAIL!

Anyone that participates in this giveaway today DO NOT FORGET to go into Tools | Options | General prefernces and deselect "Check for new version when program starts" as this giveaway is installed with a Themidia protected custom installer that pre-registers the giveaway license and the giveaway license does NOT work with their standard installer builds. So to avoid inadvertantly accepting a future update that WILL invalidate the giveaway pro license disable the update check and it will make it launch fractionally faster too and not access the internet unless you do something in the program that requires access to internet servers.

Okay, I think I get it, it's the Pro version that only allows updates within version 23. This came out in Nov so there's maybe a couple of months of updates before v24 if past performance is a guide.

FYI whilst installing it I got a threat detected, by WebRoot SecureAnywhere, in the curl.exe - message was Obfuscated.gen or something or other. Restored file to install folder and sent it to VirusTotal and it seems ok.

Installed perfectly, but since it doesn't support localization (curverd fonts instead of cyrillic symbols) the program is absolutely useless for me.

Why pay...

got LOTS of music files and have tried everything out there.

Installed perfectly on win10 x64 but freezes while scanning drives, double clicking on files. I think it's done this 15 to 20 times in as many minutes.

John, Thank you so much for the info. I almost deleted the program.

The licence info is in the readme.txt, but this is the free version which is pre-registered with the info from the readme!

Says its successfully registered but can't find it anywhere on PC ?

I am unable to find where to enter the license number. Could someone please give me the info? I would appreciate it.

Easiest install for a GOATD program ever! It's pre-registered and activated.

Wonderful offering at a time when I needed something along these lines.

Does what it claims, but no idea how long the license is for.

Be sure to disable check for updates! It defaults to check at startup. Not sure if it would automatically update and ruin things or not, so why take chances?

Thanks GAOTD and Zortram!

Win 10 64 bit - installed very easily and was automatically registered, so no hassles there. In order to appreciate the beauty of this software check out their video at http://www.zortam.com/wordpress/how-to-add-cover-art-to-mp3-file/

I'm impressed.

This does what I need it to do. It works fast and is accurate. Thanks GOTD.

I am not interested in software that is only for mp3. A minimum requirement for me is that it can also handle flac files.

Foobar player, which is free, can do everything this software does but can also handle flac files.
