Don’t you think this is very unfair that there are a whole lot of utilities and software to download music and video from Internet and conversion utilities, but when it comes for mac there are only a few and even sometimes those utilities are not very good. This is  why I decided to introduce readers a very good video downloader and conversion utility and the best part of it that; it is free to download and use thus you don’t even need to pay a single penny.

This is iSkysoft Video Downloader which is well capable to download any flv video from almost every video player sites like YouTube, Google Videos, Yahoo Videos, Myspace, Gofish, aol etc and that is also direct from your Safari or Firefox browsers.

This is very easy to use as it automatically captures the link of the video file and make them ready for download, though, it’s download version is free of cost but if you need encoder facility included with it then you have to loose some of your money. But don’t worry if you need a free encoder also, in the next section there I have mentioned a free encoder also.

FfmpegX video converter it is full fledged and have advance feature which incorporates with almost more than 20 powerful unix open-source video and audio processing tools.

Though this is best encoder I have found but is slightly with tough interface so if anyone of you facing difficulties then below you can found a very small and handy solution.

PunyVid (formerly iSquint), the no-fuss easy to use free utility lets you convert all popular video formats to iPod compatible MPEG-4 and H.264 formats faster then QuikTime PRO, the uncluttered easy-to-use drag-and-drop interface makes the whole process simple and fast.
