Hi Everyone,
I am a team member of the King's Quest IV remake group (Karen's Group).
Anyway, we wanted to use video in our AGS game, so looking at the AGS documentation we found out that the best video format one should use in the AGS engine is called Theora which has the foolowing file extension: .OGV
After checking many encoders all around I found out that the best encoder for this task is called: ffmpeg2theora.
It encoded out 81mb AVI file to a mere 300kb file without losing any quality!
the problem with this tool is that it is a command line based and that it has many arguments one should use in order to use it.
So I looked into it, then built a super easy GUI - windows application around it which simplifies it a lot!
I am here to contribute back to the AGS community - After using this small (no adware / spyware etc included!) utility I am releasing it as a free tool for use for anyone.
Just download it, add video file/s to the list, (optional) change quality [1-10] and click "convert" - can't be simpler.

If you find any bug, or have any feature request then please send me an email / PM.
Thanks,
Chaiavi.
