Handbrake

Handbrake is hailed as one of the most favored free DVD video converters running on both Mac and windows, capable of handling pretty much anything you throw at it and repackaging it into the most useful formats MP4 and MKV. Like MacX Video Converter Pro, there are also other amazing options available for you to touch up your video, like add subtitles to video, change the video codec type, set and customize frame rate, etc. But the maze-like settings often drive you to find a specific Handbrake tutorial in video converting . Anyway, its open source brings Handbrake superiority.

Note: Handbrake only supports converting videos to MP4 and MKV formats and its latest version 0.9.9 doesn't get along well with Mavericks. For people who are eager to convert video to other format like MOV, FLV, AVI, WMV, etc, you are advisable to find a Handbrake alternative for Mavericks to do the video conversion.



Prism Video Converter

Prism Video Converter is the most expensive software converter on the list, but it is still joined in our top pick in reviewing the best video converter for Mac 2014. It can be a relief especially for those new beginners who are easily confused by the complex settings that flood some other Mac video converters. The disappointing thing is that Prism Video Converter doesn't offer as much format support as other software like MacX Video Converter Pro does. And it's a little slow in our video conversion test, with the same audio video sync problem as Handbrake often does. But given the results, if you value quality and easiness over speed and price, you can give the video converter for Mac a try.



Conclusion

Actually, the four Mac video converters are almost on a par with each other. But with their video conversion abilities, available options, easiness, speed and quality in mind, I bet you surely have your answer which one is more favored.
