vReveal - Smart Video Enhancement Software

vReveal is a set of easy-to-use tools that can greatly enhance the quality of your videos. Unfortunately, its saving capabilities leave a lot to be desired.

The program's interface is quite sleek and intuitive. Users can open videos manually or have the program scan for all existing videos, which are then represented by thumbnails in the program's gallery. Users then select the video they want to work with and choose from a variety of basic, one-click options and fine-tuning tools. Among the one-click options are tools to clean, sharpen, and stabilize videos; the fine-tuning options allow users to adjust each of these manually to achieve the desired result. One of the program's best features is its preview capability; users can view their videos with the left side of the screen showing the original version and the right side showing the applied enhancements. On the whole, we liked the program a lot, but with some limitations.

vReveal works with nearly any video format. Open and edit files from their original location.The most advanced enhancement for your home videos. Easy to use "one-click" stabilization, noise cleanup, and color-correction.Finish your video quickly and get back to your life. Review, Edit, and Export in seconds, not hours. 



vReveal makes it easy to manage, fix, and share your videos. Whether you need to tame your video library or make your favorite video moments shine, you'll enjoy vReveal's simplicity and power. Try it and you'll soon discover that it's the only video app you need.

vReveal uses award-winning technology to get rid off bad shake in your video clips. There is no need to wait (unlike other apps) - vReveal can stabilize all your shaky videos on the fly.

With vReveal’s easy-to-use enhancement controls you can quickly fix common video problems like shake, poor lighting, or incorrect color (also known as white balance). We promise it's the easiest no-video-editing-experience-required application you've ever used.

One-Click-Fix automatically selects the optimal enhancements for your video. Stabilization smooths your shaky vidoes, dynamic auto-contrast fixes both dark and bright scenes, and auto white-balance makes sure your colors are true (even if you were recording under fluorescent lights).

To clean your videos from camera noise and compression artifacts, use vReveal’s exclusive Clean filter. It relies on the state-of-the-art multi-frame video processing to get rid of noise and leave you with crisp and clean video.

Want to take a REALLY wide photo but don't have time to use a complicated panorama program? You can now create incredible panoramas from video with vReveal.

Audacity - A free, open source, cross-platform software for recording and editing sounds.

Audacity is a free, easy-to-use and multilingual audio editor and recorder for Windows, Mac OS X, GNU/Linux and other operating systems.

With so many audio editors out there, finding the right tool for the job can be tricky. The multiplatform, open-source editor Audacity has leaped to the top of our list with its clean interface, excellent features, and support for 32-bit floating-point audio. Audacity succeeds at being both feature-rich and flexible, while keeping the toolbar and work space uncluttered. It does this by relegating most functions--such as effects, edits, and project management--to handy drop-down menus.

Audacity supports uncompressed audio standards such as WAV and AIFF in addition to OGG and MP3 files. A full complement of basic effects such as reverb, delay, and compression are included. Virtual Studio Technology (VST), Linux Audio Developers Simple Plugin Architecture (LAPSDA), and Nyquist plug-ins also are available if you're looking to expand. Another eye-catching feature is the Beat Analyzer, which helps you peg the beats per minute of a phrase.

The performance of most functions is quick--even CPU-hogging tasks such as exporting to MP3 or adding complex effects. Though Audacity doesn't offer advanced effects or features out of the box, its usability and price set this freeware wonder above the crowd.

You can use Audacity to:

• Record live audio.
• Convert tapes and records into digital recordings or CDs.
• Edit Ogg Vorbis, MP3, WAV or AIFF sound files.
• Cut, copy, splice or mix sounds together.
• Change the speed or pitch of a recording.
• And more! See the complete list of features.

Universal Extractor - Extract Files from Any Type (Archive / Installer)

  

Universal Extractor is a program designed to decompress and extract files from any type of archive or installer, such as ZIP or RAR files, self-extracting EXE files, application installers, etc.It's able to support so many varied file formats by utilizing the many back-end utilities.



Please note that Universal Extractor is not intended to be a general purpose archiving program.  It cannot (and never will) create archives, and therefore cannot fully replace archivers such as 7-Zip or WinRAR.  What it will do, however, is allow you to extract files from virtually any type of archive, regardless of source, file format, compression method, etc.



The original motivation behind this project was to create an easy, convenient way to extract files from various types of installation packages without the need to remember arcane command line switches or track down separate utilities to handle the unpacking.  Over time, and with the encouragement of its many users and the fine folks over on the MSFN forum, it has evolved into a mature and very capable unarchiving utility that many, including myself, find indispensable.
