Can anyone recommend MacOS video conversion software for the new M1 Max?

Hi, I'm going to be picking up a new MacBook Pro M1 Max system soon, mostly for work, but I'll also want to convert video and audio files. I do a lot of 1080p MKV to AVI (because of the demands of the older systems the files get played on). So all I want is a basic converter that lets me either stick with original resolutions and audio, for a straight MKV to AVI, or go from 720p to 1080p (which I don't do often, but have done in the past) quickly and simply.

Until now I've been using FreeMake video converter and Tipard Video Converter Ultimate on Windows 10 and 11, 32GB RAM, Core i7, and it's fast enough (kinda), but I'm looking for some improvements in terms of speed and stability. I've never used video conversion software on a (good) Mac before, so I'm kind of new to that kind of Apple software, so advice from those that use it in anger would be really appreciated.

Considering you want to convert to avi, I would suggest looking at AviDemux

AVC is that Any Video Converter? I used it a looong while ago on Windows. On big (>= 3GB) files I used to get a lot of video lag behind the audio tracks, and the AVI it produced often failed to play through a PS3 media player. Admittedly that was a good long while ago. It's definitely worth trying again I suppose -- thanks for replying :_:-*

Yes it is , I have converted 2 1/2 gig files & have never experienced any problems.
Also they tell you when there are updates .Worth giving it a try imo.
