Convert your video files for iPhone and iPad playback and get instant access to HD camcorder video from your Mac. Turbo.264 HD uses advanced encoding technology to generate superior-quality video in a universal format that looks great on an iPad and on the high-resolution display of a Mac

Instant access to HD camcorder video from your Mac
The Turbo.264 HD video converter software is fast and easy to use, and can handle nearly any kind of video file including downloads, MKV files and AVI files. Turbo.264 HD saves you time – especially if you use an HD camcorder – because you can preview and crop your video instantly, before converting it. Simply drag and drop the file into the software application and then preview, trim and combine multiple video clips into one movie. Turbo.264 HD can even handle batch processing and it automatically detects AVCHD camcorders.

Boost the speed of even the fastest Mac
Use the converter software on its own or with the included hardware accelerator. The hardware accelerator connects via USB and acts as a “co-processor” to accelerate video conversion on even the fastest Mac.

Supercharge EyeTV for iPhone and iPad
If you have EyeTV and an iPhone or iPad, you’ll find the hardware accelerator indispensable. It not only accelerates the delivery of EyeTV recordings to iPhone and iPad, it also maximizes the picture quality of the EyeTV app (available on the App Store) by adapting the video stream to available bandwidth during live TV streaming.
