IMO, the best universal transcoder, open source or commercial. I use it exclusively mostly backup my camcorder DV video and DVDs to H.264 using x264 and Nero AAC. SUPER, also very good, is easier to use; and MeGUI is a more powerful x264 frontend. But for shear flexibility and configurability across many codecs, MediaCoder is hard to beat. The main drawbacks are that (1) the author updates the app often, which is great...but sometimes, it breaks the saved settings I have (not a big deal b/c I can just revert to the working version); and (2) it takes a bit of fiddling initially with the myriad options to get it working just right. |
