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.

Is it capable of taking files from the Canon Mark 5D II and converting them so you can edit the files in Final Cut?
- Asked by MB from Saco
- Oct 13, 2009
Answer
The Canon EOS 5D MkII's video is recorded natively in H.264 at circa 38Mbs, that's a higher bit rate than HDV. Final Cut Pro v7 (part of Final Cut Studio v3) will natively handle the Canon's video with no conversion required.
The Elgato Turbo is essentially a convertor from a non H.264 format to an H.264 format or from one H.264 format to another H.264 format. …More- Answered by DO

What is the quality like of the outputted file?
- Asked by FL
- Oct 19, 2009
Answer
The Turbo.264 HD can output 1080P at up to 20mbps. It produces high quality conversions from HD material, but it will certainly not match the original. That's simply not possible.
To make sure it's right for you, you might consider buying one from a reseller which accepts returns, so you can try it on your own material and decide for yourself. …More- Answered by ME
