MediaCoder 0.8.68

Great file converter, but they should work on the interface. In some cases it's unlogical and very confusing.

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.

I know, I'm an idiot but is there a user's guide for this?

It is absolutely awesome converter eating everything and for FREE, quality without words just great, very fast (for quad cores) and after 5-7 minutes you already knowing each other. But it's need to be patience for first 10 minutes for sampling options. Even for ripping DVD i using MediaCoder and not DVDFab becouse it can leave the 720x... and not like the others maximum 704x... for me it important.
Together with VirtualDub and MKVtoolNix it doing averything.

It's a pain in the butt to get the hang of but once you do, it does the job. Works with Vista as long as you have it set to run as administrator and in compatibility mode with Windows XP SP2. It does have some glitches but once you have the settings configured to your taste to transcode various media, it runs well. I don't like that you need to have FireFox installed to get to some of the settings.

The best of its breed on the Windows platform however the GUI tends to be overwhelming to the casual end user but when you tweak the options to your liking everything is going to make sense afterwards

It does not run well in Windows Me. But it runs fine on 98,2000,XP. So my advice to all Windows Me users is to upgrade. Windows Me is the worst OS from Microsoft and is widely criticized as a buggy operating system.

The best media converter around.
I use it regularly to convert my videos into iPod videos.The settings i use:-
Video: H264 2-Pass(Vbr) 256Kbps(Note: Turn off Cabac)
Audio: Nero Aac-Lc(Vbr) 40Kbs
This is best free software around, it even gives commercial software run for their money.

I have installed it and it always makes some error when I want to run this program. I have Windows ME. Is it beacuase of my OS??

Still not perfect but very good. Encode based on MEncoder or FFMPEG. My favorite tool to convert QuickTime movies.

Run into trouble converting Xvid > SVCD,wrong AR and distorted sound. GUI is not intuitiv and flexible enough. Needs some work. Will check it out past V 0.5

Great tool, and the fastest development I've seen anywhere!! Makes transcoding so much nicer!

BTW, there is to be installer, who would not download other packages, such as x264, if those are already downloaded !

Great software! Finnaly something that works perfect. But i didnt find any contact info to report bugs or suggestions so i will do it here. For video an "no audio" option will be apriciated
