You can download it from here: http://www.downloadbestsoft.com/TEnc...Converter.html

TEncoder downloads version file from Dropbox. No information is sent during that process.

Any suggestions, criticisms etc are welcome.

some suggestions:
- connect the container and codec selection or warn the user when a combination is chosen that will cause mencoder to write to another container than selected (mpeg2+mp3+wmv container -> avi(mpeg2+mp3))
- if input par != output par this should be respected during resize
- add (auto) crop support
- allow users to keep the current resolution
- preview for subtitles + font selection might be a good idea
- combobox for the audio track selection for streams with multi audio input
... (there are so many features one could add,.. )

@Selur thanks for suggestions.

Container changes according to selected video codec, but a warning could be shown if user selects a problematic combination.

- allow users to keep the current resolution

Do you mean video size? If you select "Original" as video size, video size should be kept. But i dont know if that is what you mean by resolution.

[Selur]

yup, overlooked the 'Original' option

[DJ-1]

I`ll give this a try...
Does this use Nero AAC+ ? as far as i know thats the latest, i usually use HDConvertox `just for audio` then MUX it all together....

as Vidcoder`s AAC isnt as good.

cheers.

[ozok]

@DJ-1 no it doesn't use Nero AAC, it just uses FFMpeg and Mencoder as backends. But i might add support for other tools in the future.

Nice piece of work, pretty fast encoding and good result quality.
But:
- a custom resize would be very useful. I mean, I want to convert from 1080p>720p (1280x544/536) and there are only standard sizes for downscaling. I need 1280x544 with "keep aspect ratio-Original".
- estimate filesize of converted file would be nice, also, before start the conversion
- a pause/resume function/button.

Hope you take a look !

[ozok]

Custom video size option is coming up with next release.

I'll look into others as well.

-Updated: FFMpeg to N-39664-g6bfb304
-Updated: MEncoder and Mplayer to svn-34401

change apply button caption to load. it is confusing. also save/edit button should copy current settings from main window, should not display default settings.

[VoXHD]

i think you made a mistake.



should be "Custom" at size, not "Original", and let me chose my desire size. I've made some short tests with "Original", but my "1280x..." custom size and no changes.

Format : AVI
Format/Info : Audio Video Interleave
File size : 61.5 MiB
Writing application : MEncoder Sherpya-SVN-r34401-4.6.2
Writing library : MPlayer

Video
ID : 0
Format : MPEG-4 Visual
Codec ID : FMP4
Width : 1 920 pixels
Height : 800 pixels
Display aspect ratio : 2.40:1
Frame rate : 23.976 fps
Color space : YUV
Chroma subsampling : 4:2:0

Take a look:


Size should be not Original, but Custom 1280x536.


And where is that MPEG4 settings window from previous version? Trellis, Constant Bitrate, ClosedGOP....

i think apply applies there better. Profile editor shows values from selected profile. Shouldn't it be that way?

I think there is a misunderstanding here. From now own, values that'll be passed to encoders are the values of the boxes you indicated with red. List is just some sort of suggestion. In short, everything except "Original" is "Custom".
I'll change texts around them to prevent further misunderstanding.

It was a mistake I made, that feature was not finished then and I'm still working on it. I'll make sure it comes with new release.

[ozok]

There is a new version 1.9

--1.9
-Added: Option specify custom video width and height values
-Added: Audio extraction now produces valid files
-Added: A new skin: LightBoard
-Fixed: 1440x1080 resolution was passed wrong to the encoders

[VoXHD]

Yap, my bad. I got it in the and. It must be choose an approximated Custom size from that list (in my case - 1280x720) and then my size 1280x536 in the boxes below.

Another problem with this Custom resize: it seems to let artefacts after conversion. A green line (that green line...) up the movie screen, and some strange lines at the bottom of the screen:

Also i never got a successful output with (mkv, ffmpeg, h264,aac). Always breaks after first pass resulting with a 0 byte file.
