SolveigMM Video Splitter Reviews

Strength:
Solveig video splitter is an easy-to-use facility, especially for newbie to start with a multi-media tool. You don't need to set anything and the splitting process is quicker than many video converters. The Help File is very detailed and friendly in that it explains some basic terms of multi-media--it's quite good news for beginners to cognize the strange terms, considerate!

Weakness:
It supports fewer formats than common converter tools, and the functions of it should be strengthened.

Benefits
I hate advertisements of a DVD film; however, they are everywhere--Disney films, Walner movies, etc. When I am eager to expect the display of a movie, there are always numerous ads before play. I believe you've also experienced such case that I often suffer from DVD movies. Now, if we leave a DVD movie to solveig video splitter, things will be different. I'm not exaggerating--this smart app could cut commercials, which means you could cut video files of several movie portions at one time; while cutting, you can get rid of all ads in your movie in a few steps.

It's very easy to realize the aims of cutting off ads during trimming. I'm very happy to find this function because it's very practical for a movie-goer, isn't it?
As most converter tools, this small app provides us a preview window--we could supervise splitting process by it and select the needed parts of movies. It's very convenient.

Sometimes, I would forget where I stored the converted files, for I often ignore the default save address of them--for example, my original files maybe stored in E disc, while the default converted ones would be restored in C disc. This program brings a surprise to me: the default address is the same as original one. That is to say I need not waste time finding the trimmed ones. If you consider it not convenient to store a new-generated file in one folder, it offers a choice to save the trimmed file in different discs.

Setup
It takes just a few seconds to download as well as install it. There is no adware, spyware or malware, so it’s a safe instrument. If you follow the navigation, there are some choices for you to select—I noticed that the last step contains “start registry” is an additional choice; if you want to register immediately, this choice would be useful; on the contrast, and you can cancel the selected sign.

It is a lightweight tool whose size is only 2720KB (about 2.66MB) which is smaller than a converter program (about three-odd MB on average); this light tool won’t add load to your PC.
Though this tool provides a shortcut to uninstall, there is something left if you do not restart PC. I was surprised to see that the “uninstalled” tool could launch after uninstall without restarting my PC. So, you’d better look to uninstall and restart if you want to remove the app.

Interface
When I first launched the tool, there is a beautiful scenery picture on preview window. My first impression of it is very friendly to users. From the Help File, there are five zones divided—menu bar, preview window, information window, navigation controls and splitting controls. Actually, the interface of this tool is easy to operate, and these five zones are similar to each other. There are several buttons which looks like familiar--yah I have met them on Real Player before. There is a comparatively big button—as a recreational facility, the main function is emphasized through the big button—a well-designed interface. It seems fit newbie more than advanced users while there are some settings for an experienced user to come with their special needs.

System Requirements
This app runs on Windows 98/2000/ME/XP; the peripheral requirements are: 128MB RAM; 100MB free space for store your converter files; any kind of CPU works. You need to prepare DirectX8.0 or higher version, as well as Windows Media Player 9.0 or a higher one. It’s not difficult to get ready for these requirements.

Conclusion
Solveig video splitter is a type of easy-to-use program, or we would call it smart more suitably. This app doesn’t need set to meet our needs with complicated steps. The Help File is very minute for guiding users. You’ll learn some special functions of it and there are detailed “how-tos” to teach a greenhorn step by step. Yet the functions of this video splitter could be more powerful, just as some users complain, the converted formats is fewer than they expected. I also found a small problem: if I close this program, the Help File will disappear with it. It’s not a big problem as the Help File can be found by “Start” menu; but I hope this problem can be revised.
