	Simple straight forward and excellent encodes. I really like that it does not install on your system. Posted April 10, 2009 by bits. Tool version 0.3.5 using OS Vista Ease of use 9 of 10 Functionality 10 of 10 Value for money 10 of 10 Overall score 10 of 10
	This would be a fantastic encoder, IF I could get it to work on my Vista 64-bit. Avanti has many advanced settings for the ffmpeg codecs and even has a Avisynth front-end built in. I wish I could use it on Vista 64-bit but it but when you first set it up and run Avanti, it states "system not ready". I found that if you run as admninistrator, then "system ready" appears but if you close it, then try to open it again, there's nothing, but thwe task manager states it is running! Remove run as admninistrator and open then run Avanti, you can see it again but after a minute, the app crashes: "ffmp_avanti.exe has stopped working". So even though this program has great potential, I spent more than one half hour trying to get it to work instead of using it to transcode videos. What a waste of time.

	Best GUI I have found yet for ffmpeg! The possibilities to set formats and import files directly or via Avisynth work not only very well, but FAST! Output quality of mpeg2 and mpeg4 is amazing, considering that encoding video-only-file more often than not is done in 3-4 x realtime!! The manual included together with the very active thread concerning this tool in the forum (see link beneath "Guides" above) is a great help, if needed at all. The GUI is very well structured and clear. Posted August 23, 2008 by nbarzgar.
