Install a VIDEO CONVERTER for your Linux

  

       Some days before one of my friends asked me to convert a video for him..only that time I noticed that I don't have a video converter in my Linux System ..well I searched over Internet and saw one of the best video converter available for linux. So I thought I should share it                           

     The software is called 'Handbrake' ,really flexible and easy to use. It ii an open-source, GPL-licensed, multiplatform, multithreaded video transcoder, available for MacOS X, Linux and Windows.

Install handbrake :

connect to internet and open up command prompt then type the following command(or paste it)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 

   sudo add-apt-repository ppa:stebbins/handbrake-releases && sudo apt-get update

    sudo apt-get install handbrake-gtk
