NX1 file converters: what's wrong with Samsung?

I've been trying to keep up with the different RAW and movie converters available for NX1 files and I wondered what the shortcomings are of the converter apps supplied by Samsung?

As for the movie converter, I wish you could set a preference for how you want all the files output instead of having to change each one. Other than that, it does transcode the h.265 files fine. I tried Rocky Mountain converter and it's much faster than the Samsung converter, but the colors aren't as rich. Are there other problems with the Samsung converter that I just haven't noticed yet?

Samsung's photo raw converter works fine. What's the reason(s) people are looking for a different one?

I'm not looking to start a bash session on Samsung, I'm just wondering if maybe there's problems I haven't noticed yet with the Samsung converters or if people have different needs than what Samsung is addressing.
