**********************
The Clipchamp video converter works directly on your computer using Chrome's cutting-edge capabilities. This means that it converts video files in your browser yet directly on your computer. There is no uploading or downloading of files involved.

This not only protects your privacy and ensures that your files are never uploaded to a 3rd party unless you decide to share them but also saves network bandwidth and lengthy upload times. As a result, Clipchamp converts your videos faster than any online video converter.

Please note that conversion/compression speeds depend on the input file size, type & codecs, the output & quality settings you choose and on how powerful your computer's processor is.

**********************

Using Clipchamp is simple: Just pick a video file from your computer, select target device, resolution & output quality, and hit "Convert video!".

The app is great to convert to MP4 - for instance to convert old videos to a modern format that plays on devices such as your smartphone, tablet, laptop, Mac, PC, Chromebook, or Apple TV.

Clipchamp also offers specific conversion presets for Microsoft Office that turn your input video into output guaranteed to work in PowerPoint, Word, Excel and other Microsoft applications.

This is especially useful for older Office versions that only let you insert Microsoft proprietary video formats.

The web app also includes GIF conversion, i.e. you can record a short webcam video and save it as a looping GIF.

If you're after an easy way to convert videos and reduce their size without visible quality differences, clipchamp offers video compression to process your videos into smaller file sizes and comes with a few simple but powerful quality options for additional control.

This is useful to achieve a much faster upload of your videos to YouTube, Vimeo and Facebook.
Clipchamp can handle large files - we successfully tested it with videos of up to 20 GB file size.

After the video transcoding is finished, you can save the completed files to your computer, to your Google Drive account, or share them on Facebook, Vimeo or YouTube.

New in version 1.0.0:

– Following user feedback, we updated the webcam recording feature of clipchamp.

- The very first time you record a video, there can be some audio problems. If this occurs, please reload clipchamp and record a 2nd video.

- Processing of this first video will likely be slower than for any subsequent video you record. Processing times will speed up starting with the 2nd video recorded.

- We recommend you close all other tabs in Chrome while recording a webcam video if you're on a Chromebook as the process is quite CPU-intensive and will work best if your Chromebook’s CPU is not busy with other tasks.

- HD webcam recording is not recommended on Chromebooks.

- We are working on a version to overcome these limitations.
