MainConcept MPEG Encoder 1.5

MainConcept MPEG Encoder is a professional-grade tool for converting video and audio sources into standards-compliant MPEG streams. Built for reliability in delivery and authoring workflows, it helps you create high-quality MPEG-1 and MPEG-2 outputs for DVD, VCD/SVCD, and broadcast use, with precise control over quality, bitrate, and compatibility.

Key capabilities:

• MPEG-1 and MPEG-2 video encoding with presets for common delivery targets (DVD, SVCD, VCD)
• CBR and 1-pass/2-pass VBR modes to balance quality and file size
• Output as elementary, program, or transport streams with integrated multiplexing
• Interlaced and progressive support, field-order control, and deinterlacing options
• Customizable GOP structure (length, closed/open GOP) and scene-change detection
• Fine-grained bitrate and VBV buffer management for standards compliance
• Resolution, frame rate, aspect ratio, and pulldown controls (e.g., 23.976 to 29.97)
• Batch encoding to streamline repetitive jobs

Ideal for:

• DVD authoring and optical media creation
• Broadcast and archival deliveries requiring strict MPEG compliance
• Post-production pipelines needing consistent, repeatable MPEG-1/2 encoding results

Note: Features may vary by version; consult the product documentation for specific capabilities available in your release.
