download the new version XMedia Recode 3.5.8.0

It was mostly trial-and-error until I found quality settings that I like without making a ridiculously large file. It gives me results I want without crashing. It is partly based on ffmpeg and supposedly can be used on the command line (although I have not tried that). In your case, perhaps an earlier version of the program will work. However, eventually I had problems with it crashing, possibly because my computer was not powerful enough for all the setting options I was throwing at it.

After a while I began experimenting with the many, many different choices of settings and got better results. I need a GUI! I need to click buttons! People who are command-line proficient really impress me.īack 18 months ago I was using XMedia Recode with just standard settings. Correct me if I am wrong, but it is only usable on the command line, right? This is what keeps me from using it, because I know that I will type one wrong character and get a big fat zero as a result.

Your computer is even older than mine! Anyway, ffmpeg is a workhorse and is used as the basis for other software.

My processor is an AMD 1 core 32 bit Sempron from 2005 w/ 2 GB ram.
