what's a good video encoder?
ok what i need is a good encoder that will input mpeg2 (renamed vobs) and encode them to MPEG4 Video (H264) as an avi file... i havea bunch of videos coded like that but i can't get a hold of the person to ask them what program they used.... anyone have any ideas?

like this

RE: what's a good video encoder?
Something based off x264.

Interestingly, in the multimedia encoding world, free/open source outright beats commercial software.

Something like XviD4PSP could work, though if you want the best results, probably better to manually convert via x264.


H.264 + Vorbis  or H.264 + HE-AAC  in an MKV container will give best results.

MeGUI.

What i use to encode into h264.

It's free, and gives u quite a lot of control.

The main issue is that it's somewhat easy to crash... and not that newbie friendly.

It's odd - I've yet to see a decent GUI for encoders.  Oh, By the way, I dislike .NET apps, so yeah...

But MeGUI is decent otherwise - it does give you a lot of options, presuming you understand most of them...
