VLC media player can also be use as a free video converter without any hassle. Today, I want to share the easiest way to convert a video file format to another using VLC.

Thanks a bunch for this one. I was looking for a video converter and most of the sites require you to download and install them first. Since I already have VLC here, I can just convert my files right away.
