Adding Files to Convert

You can add files to Replay Converter for conversion in several different ways:

• Drag and drop them from their file location to the main window in Replay Converter
• Click the large plus sign in the center of the main window, then browse for the file(s) you'd like to add to your conversion job.
• Click the plus sign in the top menu bar, then browse for the file(s) you'd like to add to your conversion job.

You can add as many files as you want.

Selecting a Conversion Setting

Replay Converter's main window includes a conversion settings drop-down menu at the top-left. There you'll find many different conversion presets and options. The conversion settings are sorted by both file format and device manufacturer so that you can quickly and easily find the one that is right for you.

You have full control over the preset conversion settings and can create, delete and modify them as you wish.

As new devices and formats are released, we update preset conversion settings on our servers and these are automatically downloaded when you start the application.

To create, delete or edit existing preset conversion settings, see the Conversion Presets section below.

Starting a Conversion Job

Once you've added your file(s) to Replay Converter, simply click the green Convert button at the top-left.
