Encoder: - Software-only MPEG-2 (ISO/IEC 13818-2) and MPEG-1 (ISO/IEC 11172-2) stream encoding
- Ultra-fast encoding; faster than hardware encoders in many cases
- Real-time MPEG capture from analog and DV sources or other WDM/DirectShow supporting devices
- Support for all allowed MPEG-1 and MPEG-2 parameters
- Supported Profiles: Simple, Main, High and 4:2:2 Profile
- Supported Levels: Low, Main, High and High 1440 Level
- Ultra-high quality, including enhanced scaling and deinterlacing
- Bitrate modes: CBR and VBR
- Multiplexing types: Program, Elementary and Transport Stream
- Noise filtering
- Two-pass encoding
- HD, HDV and HDTV support
- Intel® Pentium® 4 and Hyper-Threading as well as DualCore optimizations
- Half Pel Search
- Supported Audio formats: PCM, Layer 1/2
- High-quality decoder, supporting HD resolutions.
- New XDCAM and XDCAM EX encoding presets added
- MPEG-2 Encoder speed improvement of up to 30% on DualCore systems (up to 10% on a QuadCore)
- Added Low Level support for chroma quant matrices (4:2:2 chroma format)
- Added Low Level support for writing quant matrix extension (ISO/IEC 13818-2: 6.2.3.2, 6.3.11)
- MPEG-2 Encoder filter now offers several cropping, adding and dimensions adjusting features
- Vertical cropping (in addition to horizontal cropping) for MPEG-2 Encoder Low Level if input height is bigger than the encoder setting (now it gets the center area of the video instead of the top left)
