FFCoder

FFCoder is a .NET based audio/video converter, which is capable of transcoding audio and video files to various formats. It is a unified frontend for many freeware utilities such as FFmpeg, MPlayer and MEncoder.

Features:

• Supports 11 command line encoders : ffmpeg, mencoder, ffmpeg2theora, x264, xvid_encraw, avs2avi, lame, faac, Nero AAC, OggEnc and WavPack. More will be added later. Batch processing.
• Parallel processing (multiple files can be transcoded at same time).
• Advanced configuration options for all codecs.
• Supports 2-pass encoding with automated first pass.
• Encode video using vfw codecs such as VP6, VP7 and FFDShow (by using avs2avi).
• MeGUI presets can be imported for x264 and xvid encoding.
• Support for video filters provided by the encoder (such as mencoder’s filters)
• Input files can be avisynth scripts or any format supported by ffmpeg.
• For encoders such as x264_cli which support very few input formats, the video is decoded with ffmpeg and then piped to the encoder, on-the-fly.
• Tools – dump audio/video stream to file, create thumbnails/images in JPEG/BMP/PNG/TIFF format, rebuild file, etc.

Requirements:

• Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 or above (for Windows XP users only)
• AviSynth 2.5 or newer
• K-Lite Codec Pack

• Release Date: Aug 25, 2011
• Download(s):
  FFCoder_v1.3.0.3_Portable_Full.7z
  FFCoder_v1.3.0.3_Setup_Full.exe
• Some DLL files were missing in the Setup package
  – js32.dll (Required by MP4Box) – DGAVCDecode.dll, libavcodec.dll (Required for encoding MTS/M2T/M2TS files using Avisynth mode)
• When a VOB file was added (in AVS mode), the video was automatically cropped and deinterlaced. This will not be done anymore. Cropping and deinterlacing must be done explicitly by setting filters.
• The provided x264 presets were loaded incorrectly. The Initial Buffer Size for 2-pass encoding was set to 0.9% instead of 90%. This was causing some 2-pass encodings to fail. This issue is fixed.
• MPlayer2 does not support playback of Avisynth files. As a result the video preview was not working in the ‘Trim’ window. Mplayer2 has been replaced with an older MPlayer version which can play Avisynth files.
