On video side, MEncoder is used as back-end, which provides support for nearly all known video compression and container formats as well as rich and useful video filtering features (e.g. post-processing, 3D de-noise).
On audio side, MPlayer and Winamp input plugins used as decoders, various encoders integrated, MediaCoder can simply batch transcode among any known audio formats, with tags transferred, file names generated, and even performing audio filtering (e.g. resample, normalize) on the fly.
Features in brief:
- Converting between most popular audio and video formats
- Multi-threaded transcoding and job-level parallelization
- Transcoding with high performance and high quality
- Flexible control over transcoding parameters
- Simplified UI for popular mobile devices (PSP, iPhone/iPod etc)
- Fully standalone, no dependancy on system codecs/splitters
- Simultaneous Segmental Transcoding (in development)
Typical Applications:
- Improving compression / reducing size for audio/video files
- Converting media content for playback on multimedia devices
- Converting media content for online publication or broadcasting
- Extracting audio track from video files
- Ripping audio/video discs
- Fixing corrupted or partial downloaded video files

MediaCoder 0.8.0.5158 r5

the interface is a mess, really counter-intuitive,
it's completely opposite to all standard interfaces that we see in other similar GUI's,
The wizard setup is great, and really thought out, explains many things of the application's settings, and really guides the user what they want the program to do..... but then the program finally loads.... what a mess.... hundreds of boxes and settings exposed to the user....
the entire GUI needs re-structuring,
i would recommend
Handbrake,
Staxrip,
Fairuse Wizard,
MEGui (a learning curve for sure, but a powerful GUI none the less)
Xvid4PSP (quite good, the recent 5.x.x versions have come a long way)
AVIDemux (more of an editing tool, but still good functions concerning conversion possibilities)
i say again, MediaCoder needs a GUI that has the kind of thinking that went into the programs setup wizard.

Great file converter, but they should work on the interface. In some cases it's unlogical and very confusing. But overall one of the best file converters ever.
