For " mp4 HQ widescreen " the preview in Curlew fails. only " mp4 video " or " mpeg2 video " or avi. to mp4, but with the options Curlew is much more mature and powerful because it can split or merge files, cut etc.īut Curlew has difficulty finding the aac_enc codec ( only aac it can find ) and the preview only works with the simple file format names in the list, e.g. are still the best.Īnd compared to Curlew, MystiQ can add mkv to the task list and also convert it, e.g. The width and height are well automatically recognized.īut for more complex editing, Avidemux, Openshot, Flowblade etc. The black bars at the top and bottom can be cut away.

It almost comes close to Avidemux with the options, but easier and faster to set.īut it doesn't seem to be finished yet, the scaling title is shown in bold, but no setting options are visible.Īs a pure converter tool for video and also only for audio I find it good with the easy options selection. And it can't cut anything out at the beginning of the video yet. However, I couldn't figure out how, probably the developer should continue to work on the cutting tool. If you are on Windows you can use YAMB which is a GUI for MP4Box that works.

It can also cut out sequences and is stable and more. ffmpeg: Combine/merge multiple mp4 videos not working, output only contains. You can't go wrong, the conversion setting options are versatile and self-explanatory, and the application guides the user step by step through the setting options. Tested and i find it as conception idea very good, but  (He's not a native English speaker, though.)

As it just so happens to be, someone at the PCLinuxOS Forum also just discovered MystiQ and gave his first impressions in this post.
