All reviews for H.264 Encoder

12 reviews, Showing 1 to 12 reviews


Only the 1.5 version works in XP and it works well enough giving good quality. The latest version updated is 1.7 which works in Win10. Maybe the codec is updated but you can we the GUI has changed a little with aspect ratio output pull down options. This is also in version 1.6. Really bare bones and much slagged off because it breaks the terms recognition of source code. You choose whether to use it or not.

Yes there is an update- version 1.7 and it does not work very well in addition to breaking all the open source rules apparently.

It cannot open mkv files as input. Version 1.5 could open diffrent file extensions betterand dare I say despite some concerns in how it was compiled worked okay for newbies. 1.6 version like this update couldn't. Anyway avoid this crappy fly by nightware.

Garbageware. The newest version is actually 1.7 and it does not work in XP as it crashes. I could not be bothered to test it in either Win 7 or 10. The last version 1.6 works if you must use it. The settings on this software are extremely minimal. There are no standard ones like audio output. The licences it breaks are well known going from the last version. Deleted as I write.

GPL-violating crapware that uses code from the x264, ffmpeg/libav, mencoder, etc. projects without obeying the terms of their respective licenses. Font face in title bar makes it abundantly clear that this software was produced by your typical fly-by-night "developers" in much the same way as Pavtube software and a thousand other dishonorable mentions. Avoid at all costs.

A VERY easy to use program.
Every simple "button pushers" encoding dream.

Just choose input, output, a few encoding settings and hit encode.

It doesn't get any easier then this.
The perfect program if you just want to encode quick and easy.

Thumbs up to the author of this proggi.

super easy and straitforward. does not reduce to a desired file size, does not reduce according to specific frame-rate. does not have advanced features (as I guess this is not the purpose for its intended users).

It took (1 hour and 7min) to encode a (45 min) video. IMO that's pretty slow, even with 2 pass encodes I was getting slightly faster results.

encoded with the 'normal option', the video was cut to 1/2 its size. 700 to 350mb. Basically the converter cut my frame rate from about 2000fps to 1000fps and there was a slight quality sacrifice.

I only have a single issue with this, and that is that the author renamed the ffmpeg.exe that does the actual work to h264encoder.dll, and makes no mention of (or gives any credit to) the ffmpeg project itself.

If Only they add an Optional "Advanced Settings" to Control the Bit-rates and Audio Formats, AAC or Advanced Audio Codec is the Default Audio Codec used for Conversion which is Incompatible in Most Conventional LCD's that Play's H264 MPEG4's, AC3 or MP3 Options should be Added for Audio Codecs.

How simple could it be? Just your select video source, create an output file name, select your choice of encoding settings, and go (encode). Sweet.

I'm a bit surprised that nobody has yet made a comment on this program. This program is as simple as it gets. There aren't any settings to tweak; being that they are built-in to the program. This program may be a disappointment to those who prefer to tinker into the depths of an h264 or x264 encoder but for someone who just wants a no-hassle approach toward encoding, this program is it.
