I've been using Xmedia as decent replacement to Handbrake. However I have a few issues which need to be addressed in upcoming releases to make it PERFECT for digitising my DVD collection: -Xmedia does not apply the correct delay (- or +) when converting the audio track of DVDs, I am finding myself having to run the resulting MP4 through MKVtoMP4 just to add the required audio delay which adds between 15-30 mins of processing time :( -Xmedia can't detect the foreign speaking subtitles on certain DVDs (the subtitles which are on by default when you play a DVD in in VLC/Windows Media/Standalone DVD Player) - I am having to go into VLC, play the DVD and select 'subtitles' from the context menu for ALL DVDs just to see if it has these foreign speaking sections -If I crop a DVD source (I always do to remove the borders) and the DVD has foreign speaking subtitles which occur in the cropping space, the program will crash when it gets to the foreign speaking part. I can't even rip the subs manually and manually convert to SRT/ASS as the program will crash when doing so also. This can be sorted by resetting all subtitle positions before hand and having them display in a stand postion. I hope these issues get resolved as I think this is a great program.

what's this: HB ? Do you think Hand Brake ? how do you set the H264 codec ? The conversion speed depends primarily on this...and of course the strength of your PC to me this new (v3164) is working properly for MKV (x264 + AAC)... for (medium preset) to MKV convert 370 MB is fine 2 hours and 20min...greeting...

Hi Sebastian, I love your Tool, easy GUI, nice layout, great for Newbies. I am using your Portable 3.1.6.4 and I tried to encode a 15 minutes WMV, 370MB file to MKV file H.264+AAC, staright forward nothing extra and your program says it will take 2 Hours and 20 Minutes, well I stopped it and I am converting it with "HB" and it is going to take only 18 Minutes. Something is wrong with this New version. Thanks! G!:)

In open file mode, it reads interlaced videos(all I have) as progressive. DVD/Blu-ray subtitle rendering crashes the program on clicking "Encode".

I had used this program since I use XP. I also used on Vista and Win7. But I haven't used it for a year since version 3.0.9.0. A week ago I bought a Toshiba Satallite P850 laptop. The OS is Windows 8. I want to test its magnificent CPU i7-3630QM. When I run XMR it asked me to update. Updated itself to 3.1.5.5. But it didn't work. Then I installed version 3.1.5.4. It didn't work either. 3.1.5.3 was ok. Of you use Windows 8 like me do not use latest version. Use 3.1.5.3.

I had the same problem. The program looks great. It just won't run. I tried both mp4 and mkv files and as soon as I gave the encode command the program immediately crashed.

Version 3154 works well but Xmedia Recode still has a problem (crashing) with cropping and resizing. Using file (libswscale.dll) from v2333 does not work in this new version. If someone have a solution to cropping and resizing a place here ... regards...

Great picture quality, no sync issues whatsoever. But, subtitles (dvb) don't work propperly. I want us this programm to convert wtv's. Guess I'll have to wait for a bugfix.

I owe the developer a hearty apology. It looks like this was an issue of my error not his. After switching to another converter and having the same issue, and then trying some commercial ones, none of them work. The issue is my system, not the application (interestingly, I just did a complete re-install and still seem to be having the issue.)

Works for me. 30 minute FLV to AVI in 9 minutes. I'm happy with that.

This and the previous version crash immediately upon trying to encode. Reached out to developer to ask if there were crash logs or something I could provide but have yet to hear back. It's too bad because when it was working it was fantastic: Speedy and reliable. But as of right now it doesn't work.

3.1.4.9 fixes the transcoding problem I reported against 3.1.4.8. XMedia Recode is a great way to transcode audio while just copying video. Interface is generally good, although marred by some quirks -- be careful to check job options before encoding. Quality of MPEG-4 video output not as good as Handbrake, so I use XMedia Recode just for audio transcoding.

When I tried to transcode just the audio, copying the video, from MKV to MP4, XMedia Recode 3.1.4.8 started a run of about an hour for 5 files of 1.4 GB. When I reverted to XMedia Recode 3.1.4.6, it correctly started a run of about 12 minutes. Something seems to be wrong with XMedia Recode 3.1.4.8.

Awesome tool! It's compact, runs great, and doesn't try to install any toolbars or crap like that. I just use it to convert MKVs to MP4s to stream to my Apple TV and it works beautifully, you can set up as many jobs as you like and let it go nuts for a while converting whole seasons of shows for you. I hate MKVs, I don't know why anyone uses that shitty container when MP4s do the exact same thing with the added benefit of actually working on all your devices(PS3, Apple stuff) without having to transcode, but this program easily fixes that problem. So glad I found this, every other program I tried was a total mess.

I have first posted the resize problem is due to libswscale of ffmpeg on October 5 2011 here. It appeared to be fixed in one version...may be not. Still this important bug has not been fixed, I am seeing at least one version every month, to detect it is crashing.... is there any meaning for these updates? codecs will not get frequent important updates, xvid has been updated long back, though x264 is updated, the quality difference is not much from one year old version. So the main reason for updates must be the bug fixes, Do not waste your energy in just updating codecs. Please please please fix the known bugs...........audio isuues, mkv issues and the first and most important is resizing issue.

Hello! Xmedia doesn't support the merge and/or cutting of videofiles. Nowadays that would be very important basic expectations even for a video transcoder. I wrote letter for the develper, but he didn't respond to my letter yet.

Just tried swapping the libswscale.dll files as noted in recent suggestion...still doesn't work on 75% of machines I try it on. Most recent version crashes when scaling.....older versions crash when scaling (3.0.6 and other suggested version)...versions crash when trying to swap the libswscale.dll files. In fact, the versions I just tried even crashed when keeping the size the same. This did NOT use to be the case with earlier libswscale.dll versions. But now simple transcodes don't work on a variety of machines. Such a shame as when it does run (as it does on my one Win7 system), it's a great program. I'm not sure why this front-end has this particular problem when I've never seen it occur while trying literally dozens of other FFMPEG front ends over the last few years. There are also still some problems with applying color correction. It will work on one clip in your list but if you're encoding multiple clips, it won't let you apply color correction to batches. Again...not sure why as this would seem to be a command line call somewhere in the applied settings. But overall....IF you can get it to work, it's a good program.

Hello all, the Versions regarding the previous post are 3.0.6.0 and 3.0.8.1. Sorry ! And to mention here, the internal xvid conversation is slow, better install the divx codec and use divx in conversation setting (windows divx install needed). If your destination container is mkv, and your player does not accept it, you have to remux the mkv from XMedia Recode with mkvtoolnix. This is fast, because it does not change audio and video, it only changes the internal storage structure of the mkv file. Start with mkvtoolnix 3.3 or older. Some DLNA players (SAT Receiver or TV) do not accept mkv muxed versions after 3.3.0. Avoid header compression (available in newer versions of mkvtoolnix).

Hello all, regarding 2 most common problems: 1. resize Problem was introduced after Version 3.6.0, so check this version first. If it fixes your resize problem, try changing the libswscale.dll from 3.6.0 with your version. This fixed it on Version 3.8.1 .This workaround does not work with every available version. If the version is incompatible, program crashes when using i.e add borders or other functions from that lib. 2. If the program crashes on your system, first check your media filter, codec settings. The source file should always be playable outsite the application, i.e mediaplayer. Next delete the existing XMediaRecode.ini and restore the original Installation from zip or reinstall the complete Application. 3. Start with a simple conversion first, simple standard res mpeg avi, mpeg source file and with the default settings for a common destination format i.e mp4. If this works, save the ini. Then modify the destination step by step to your requirements. If it crashes, restore ini. Testet it on 6 different systems XP SP3, Vista SP1 and Win7 and Win7 SP1 I could get my hands on. Try 3.6.0 Version first, if you encounter problems. You can have different versions on the same machine, if you use the zipped versions only Please respond, if a note from above solved an issue on your system with a short description. Maybe the Developer is able to use the collected infos here. Good luck

I found this program when I was looking for a solution to prepare many video files so I could stream them from a NAS to an iPad without having to re-encode the video. The source video files are encoded H.264 720p with 6 channel DTS audio MKV files. I wanted to convert them to MP4 files with AAC audio and without re-encoding the video. The "Video copy" and the batch job function of this program made it easy. It typically takes about 12 minutes to convert a 2-hour video on my system. I'm using the FileBrowser app on the iPad to stream and play the files. I suppose I could have done the job just using the underlying utilities, but XMedia Recode made it so easy. This is a great solution for converting the files for streaming to the iPad, but probably not if I needed to store them on the iPad. In that case, re-encoding would be better to reduce their file size.

Ok, so this version I'm using, 3.1.2.8 works really great on 1 out of my 3 computers. I am converting all kinds of videos from all over, youtube, torrents, homemade on my android... etc... to h264 and it is amazing. I had been using Handbrake but I find that it doesn't make as pretty an output at the same quality settings but more importantly, Handbrake skews the audio when the source is AC3 most times and I can't seem to find a way to prevent that. Xmedia Recode has never, not once, messed up the audio on any of my files. Like I said, when it works, it's a beautiful thing. The only thing I can't get it to do is put the MOOV atom at the front of the file for easy streaming but I simply use MP4Faststart after the encode and that is taken care of. The real problem is that it won't work at all on 2 of my computers. On one, running Windows Server 2003, it did work... like once or twice. Then it crashed and hasn't worked since. Now when you start an encode, it says finished in about 1 second and outputs an empty file. Also, it will not display a preview in the filters section. The other computer, my laptop running Windows 7 64bit, just as my main machine does where Recode works great, will not display a preview at all. Never has. I haven't actually tried encoding on it because without the preview, I'm not sure what I will get. I have sent a couple emails to the developer but now I read that he never responds to emails so I guess that will lead nowhere. How frustrating. Anyway, Overall.... a 5 dsp
