# 1 HandBrake alternative for Mac

Canonical page: https://macbase.app/alternatives/handbrake

Free, open-source video transcoder that converts videos to other formats and sizes.

HandBrake is free, but its many settings can be confusing for a quick job. Alternatives offer drag-and-drop conversion with sensible presets, a design that feels more like a Mac app, or extras like trimming, merging and audio conversion.
