Wow. Excellent.
What do I need to know to convert from a MediaCoder work flow to straight MEncoder? In MediaCoder, I've been using the iPod AVC/ACC "Defaults", with the video bitrate simply adjusted way down. (45kbps)
Is there an MEncoder audio/video encoding "cheat sheet" for iPods?
FWIW, I'm developing a (yet another) Python-based media encoding front-end for internal use, but after wrapping a wxPython GUI around it, I may consider openly releasing it. (I could not find any other simple frontend that focused on consolidating existing media files, fixing the metadata and encoding as iPod h264....)
Thanks,
:)
