MP4 Encoding Codec

Re: MP4 Encoding Codec

It seems pointless to use the Nero encoder for Constant Bit Rates when it is optimised and at its best (like most encoders) at Variable Bit Rates. Nero recommend preset -q 0.5 for an average bitrate around 170kbps.

To each his own. The VBR files wouldn't play in my iPod when I got it a year and a half ago, and I wasn't alone. I realize that's a moot point now, as that problem has been fixed by Ahead, but whatever.

And yes, the developers themselves have said (on another board) that at the bitrate I actually prefer (224kbps, cbr), we're talking undetectable sonic improvements, but that's precisely why I choose such bitrates. I personally don't want to spend a bunch of time A-Bing anything at the minimally acceptable bitrates to save a little bit of disk space, earning a lot of sonic distraction for my trouble. YMMV.

Re: MP4 Encoding Codec

use the genric cli dll from one of the vorbis aotuv beta codecs, or from the mpc cli plugin (one of the ones that support piping)

and replace the options.txt file for it :smile2: enjoy, no need for temp files.

Better idea: the new dMC beta mp4 pack: http://forum.dbpoweramp.com/showthre...ewpost&t=10510

You do have to download the nero encoder and move it, as stated in the help file included with the pack.
