About Bytessence MPxConverter
Bytessence MPxConverter is the small but more capable brother of AMVConverter. It is based on the same code, but it now is compatible with both Actions and Sunplus players. The program kept features from its predecessor, mainly portable code, ease of use, speed and multilingual interface while adding extended conversion support.Features over the standard conversion tool:
- Much faster conversion
- Smaller size
- Portable, does not use registry (thus no slowdowns)
- Multilingual, multiplatform
- Open-source code
Important note: The AMV muxer (the encoder used in FFMpeg) is in alpha stage! This means that the video quality may not be the best and there might be problems inside. If you prefer quality over speed for AMV videos then you should use the standard converter that came on the CD with your player. MPxConverter is just a simple user interface to help convert videos faster than using the classic converter. It wasn't created to compete with any other product. Any problems concerning issues other than this simple interface should be addressed here: AMV-Codec-Tools.
