Works perfectly. Some conversions don't exactly fit to my PocketBook PB 740 - sometimes yes, sometimes not (EPUB). For example, dividing words is ON, but when I enlarge the font above 10 pt, then the... See more

Loss of red when creating mpg files for DVD use

Using perplexity to determine best way to maintain colors (like red) when transcoding to mpeg2 from whatever. One of the answers included Filestar.

Instead of downloading some converter app thats a demo only to fail to write anything for testing, I converted a 4GB .mkv file to .mpg, it downloaded the know how and got the job done (using local CPUs) and go it done deliberately and faster than anything I have already tried. I will do one from .mkv to.dv and compare to a high quality mpg file.

Use this file converter!!

An excellent piece of software for converting files to different formats. Intuitive and friendly with clear on screen prompts to support first time users. Even better is the free licence for low volume users. Great experience.

Converting MPP files to P6 and vice versa

I'm very grateful to Filestar, which is one of the most important applications for converting MPP files to P6 and vice versa, with over 95% accuracy. It helps me speed up and simplify the process, especially if you use MPP programs and work with Primavera. Well done.

Convenient and straight forward converter

Filestar has made converting a file to another format convenient and straight forward. Before Filestar there didn't seem to be a good choice that didn't involve having to open another site, sign in and follow several steps.

Thank you for bringing this convenient file converter to the masses.

This is simple and helpful

This is simple and helpful. It saved me such aggravation!!! I am thankful for this tool and when I have a minute, will see how else to use it - and if I might need a paid subscription. For a change, a piece of software that does what I need and does not require a steep learning curve! Yay!
