HOW
IT WORKS:
-Input Video and
Audio is decoded and encoded to H.264 by ffmpeg to a Temp file(s)
-Temp Audio and
Video files are muxed together by Nicmp4Box for iTunes Compliance
-Temp files are
deleted after muxing
-The muxed finished
file is written to the destination folder with a log file
HINTS
AND TIPS:
-Right click on the
GUI for further options
-DVD Video files
(.vob)
must be joined into 1 large file before converting
-Periodically
delete the x264 passlog file from the 3GP-ADC folder as it can become
large over time
-The progress meter
misreads with some input files
-Presets can be
created or modified by editing the "transcoding .ini" file if you know
ffmpeg syntax
