File Format changing has become common today due to different device types and need. Sometimes we need to extract only audio of any video or sometimes we need to change file format to mp4 from avi, or so on.
In order to accomplish this, one need softwares who could do this. Although there are manies available who do this task but downloading and installing these free softwares sometimes also install other softwares like system cleaner, or browser extensions, or malwares. And why should we pay for other softwares, when it can be done using VLC only.
Yes, we all know VLC is the most used audio video player which supports many formats from normal to HD. We can also use VLC to convert media files from one format to another.
