HybridRECENTLY UPDATED |
Hybrid is a multi platform (Linux/Mac OS X/Windows) Qt based frontend for a bunch of other tools which can convert nearly every input to x264/Xvid/VP8 + ac3/ogg/mp3/aac/flac inside an mp4/m2ts/mkv/webm container, a Blu-ray or an AVCHD structure.

Simply the best tool I have ever used for converting the media files. Not only software educates you with all the different options, but also provides you endless customization opportunity. Agreed, this is not a tool for novice computer users to use. But someone who knows exactly what he wants to do should feel better already with this. I was stuck with MeGUI before this and adding jobs and converting files was pain. Used to take around a minute for adding every single file for encoding. This one makes it so much easier than it auto processes everything and applies settings to multiple files with breeze. It analyzes multiple files, applies settings as per your settings and creates jobs. Thanks a lot for creating the best software, makes encoding so much easier and fun. Keep up the good work! :)

This program is not the easiest to navigate throught when using advanced options, but it does give lots of tips about settings, so I gave it an 8. It produces very good results and seems to be quicker than some other tools I've used using same settings (Avidemux & Xmedia Recode) and even from the looks of it, produces better quality. It has many options available and I like that, although I think you need some knowledge about certain settings. It would be nice if this program would get better editing tools, like trimming/cutting videos, it's very basic now and it took me a while before I found the setting to enable cutting/trimming videos. Some other programs like Xmedia Recode have better/easier editing features. I did not notice bugs when I did my encoding, felt stable as any other program out there. I used a wiki page to set certain settings for x264 encoding, and on that page they said to turn off vbv-bufsize for better quality, but I can't do that within hybrid, so I kept it at what hybrid set it to. I used this wiki page: http://mewiki.project357.com/wiki/X264_Settings Thank you to Selur for making this program and I hope he will continue with development.

It is full with bugs...again. It's the most unstable software what I've ever seen! Don't use it!

This tool makes me stick to it only, without prompting me the need to use another Encoding tool. Hybrid is perfect and very easy to use. The Author, Selur is very attentive with it's development and keeps Hybrid on the brim of success. I value this tool with 100% of everything.

Confirmed full dunctinallity and stability under MAC OS X 10.8,10.7.4,10.6.8 The Interface: The interface can be a little scarry at first but once you understand that everything is in fact in the "right" place you should have no trouble. This is an alternative to: rebox.NET(only goes one way MKV-MP4 but not back)-Windows GOTsent(same functionallity as Rebox.NET) AVIDEMUX(MultiAVCHD was crashing with the AVIDEMUX output)-Windows/Mac/Linux PopornConverter(Refused to Convert AAC to AC3 Audio again for miltiAVHCD)-Windows Highlights/Uses 1. Convert The now common MKV to MP4 withouth touching the Video Or Audio(all in one tool for PS3 Playback) 2. Allows you to load any number of files AT ONCE for processing, automation and efficency is amazing.Prepare Files for AVCHD disk authoring. Allowing you to store multiple Movies On One Disc. 20 720P or even more standard def Movies on one 25GB Bluray disc. Playable on any Blu-ray Player. Great for kids and saving your original discs and your money. I personally put all my nephew's(4YO) movies into one disc. The only other thing besides this tool that you would need to do this is multiAVCHD (windows only unfortunately) to author the Menus but that is it. Other Notes: Converting Audio in a MKV Or MP4 Container to AVCHD compliant.(Storage Speed became the bottleneck~100MB/s yes Megabytes. 120 episodes which the program allowed me to load all at once (unlike AVIDEMUX) 25 minute episodes (mp4s) ~350MB 1280x720 H264 Video:passthough(Video Copy)+ AAC@160 to MKV container with AC3 @160,took 5-8 Seconds per episode the dropped right into MultiAVCHD then two BD-Rs. They have all been tested and there is no audio delay issues or percibable audio quality loss.

Nice tool, worth trying - giving a shot for Windows users. HandBrake will be immediate alternative to MAC users.

The developer has indicated it was too much of a hassle for him to compile the necessary tools for OSX so he provides a Mac OSX version that does...nothing. I guess if one wanted to pursue searching out all the tools that the app complains are missing (and the dialog box that does so is filled with complaints but provides no directions to rectify the problem) then it might be possible to make -some- use of this app. However, as it is now, it's worthless. Move along...nothing to see here.

if you post in the Hybrid thread (http://forum.videohelp.com/threads/345169-Hybrid-%28windows-linux-mac%29-X-264-Xvid-VP8-ac3-ogg-mp3-flac-dts) or in Hybrid's own forum or send me a PM with more details I might be able to fix the problems,... Cu Selur (the author)

I was intrigued by the ProRes output option and decided to test it out. Unfortunately it would error out with that output. The error would report "unable to find fields interlaced". This would happen with both interlaced and progressive sources. Probably some kind of bug. It works fine for AVC output however.......
