Aiseesoft iPad 2 Converter Suite for Mac comes is a nice video conversion suite. It comes with a video converter that allows you to convert your video files so that you can play them on your iPad 2 and there is also an iPad management tool that lets you backup your device back to your Mac and to put some content on it. On top of that, there is also a DVD ripper. The converter apps of the suite also come with a complete video editor that allows you to trim, crop and join videos together. You can also adjust their brightness, contrast and saturation.
When you run the application, a launcher will give you an access to the three apps that make up the suite. Clicking on each one of those will open a new application. They all have a very similar graphical user interface and were very responsive during my time with them.
I tested both the video converter and the iPad manager. The latter even detected and worked with other Apple devices, and it has a nice audio player that lets you listen to your songs directly from the application. The video converter worked well, too. It has good output format support, and the files you convert with it will play on most devices.
Avid Media Composer now supports Xsan, StorNext and NFS-based storage with SAN Fusion 1.5, allowing project and media sharing like Unity or ISIS.
