MediaCoder contains the most popular audio and video codecs and tools for an easy and convenient way to convert files from one format to another. The program has a flexible and extensible architecture and is constantly updated to provide the latest versions of codecs. Thanks to this, the program can rightfully be called the most universal media recoder.
Typical tasks of the program are: reduction of the size of audio and video files, transformation of media for playing on household players and mobile devices, preparation of media for publication on the Internet or broadcasting. In addition, MediaCoder can be used to save the audio track of any video or movie in a separate file, as well as to recover partially corrupted or under-utilized files.
MediaCoder allows fast and high-quality conversion of media files into various formats, making them compatible with multiple devices.
Conversion between popular audio and video formats is done at high speed and with high quality, thanks to the use of multithreaded conversion and process parallelization. Hardware acceleration (Intel SandyBridge and nVidia CUDA technologies) is used for encoding.
MediaCoder provides quick access to all coding settings. The interface of the program is specially simplified to convert media into formats suitable for mobile devices and the Internet.
