I use Handbrake, its really good, but looking for something even better, if possible with the new x265 codec support and all. Want to achieve even lower size and better quality output than Handbrake does, for my game play recordings with ShadowPlay. UI should be simple, don't understand complicated UIs.

Thanks in advance.

SUPER is good, but one of the worst UIs ever.

Freemake? Seriously? That's like the worst converter I have ever tried. Should be given an award for making classy shite videos :lol:

Anyway, thanks for the other recommendations. I am not sure though whether those are better alternatives of Handbrake or not.

Honestly all most all video converter are virus ridden or stripped down in free version with slow conversion or limited formats.I didn't find any good free converter that is free and with good UI.

I used (And still use) Mediacoder. Used Super prior to that, horrible UI.
