Corel Painter does have a lot of great brushes, and they do emulate real art supplies very well. Especially the thick paint is well done. But unfortunately there are so many functional and UX bugs that overall it is just horrible to work with. When contacting customer support about it, they really seem clueless about the seriousness of the situation, and clueless about what proper UX is in general. They have tried to make it work a bit like Photoshop, which is a good move but then some things are absolutely not intuitive at all and they are definitely missing the mark horribly with so many issues. I would highly recommend using Photoshop instead, though you'll have to download them separately; it also offers a lot of great brushes nowadays and works much much smoother without all those aggravating bugs of Painter. The price of Corel Painter is just not at all worth all these horrible bugs.
For any kind of video converting Uniconverter is the perfect tool. It is easy to use. The converting function is quick and precise and the result is excellent. If you need to convert your clips for social media or even convert full movies to be watched on smartphones or any other mobile device it is perfect.

Converts video files into different formats (CODECs), which is necessary for editing and for the output of finished files.
Lets you convert many characteristics of the video file, such as CODEC, frame rate, frame size, etc, which is great as different uses of video require files made to widely varying specs.
Lets you convert among many video CODEC, so you can make video fies for just about any need.
Uniconverter is also very useful in downloading video from many websites.

I only ask for one additional feature and that is to be able to 'normalise' the audio level when the production includes audio tracks drawn from different sources as such levels can vary widely.

If it wasn't quite clear yet, I'll state it again: the usability of Corel Painter is, simply put, horrid. And I am not talking about rendering, lagging, etc., it is not even all that bad there. I am talking about the weird issues like being unable to move a brush into a custom brush palette when you work on a second screen, like being unable to move the software onto the second screen in the first place unless you separate all the palettes and the windows (and if nobody tells you upfront there is no way of knowing because the manual doesn't state this at all), and then having to drag all your separate windows and palettes over one by one every time your computer wakes up again, and they won't really want to move to the other screen but only through a tiny corner of your screen, and the fact that you have to scroll through lists and lists of fonts but can't search and when you apply this font, add another piece of text the font jumps back to the default font of all the text already applied even when you haven't selected any of the text. Just to name a very small few.
It's so easy to use, user interface is simple and allows you to click buttons with more advanced options if you need them. The tutorials teach you how to do most of what you may need to do. You don't need to get a masters degree to use this tool.

It was really hard to get them to understand what I was having problems with. It was hard to get the message through that Painter has an unacceptable amount of functional and UX bugs. When I finally talked to someone who was easier to communicate with, he was very stoic about the situation, like they didn't really care about the awful amount of bugs.
Corel Painter has support to multiple OS and across all the devices. Coloring and multi layer imaging works very well. The new enhanced brush settings and the redesigned brush libraries.

I've used many products and while none are perfect, all except Wondershare conduct themselves appropriately and function within existing frameworks for customer service, warranty etc.
