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:
As of version 0.9, support for RockChip/Anyka players has been removed because there is no easy way of creating an universal converter for them. Depending on the chipset and the firmware, these players aren't compatible with each other, rendering my efforts to create an universal conversion tool useless. Even RockChip seems to have abandoned this quest and offers single-profile converters. Another big problem is that I don't own a RockChip player and I can't test the converted files. If you have a RockChip, I suggest you to use the standard AVI Converter software that comes on the drivers CD-ROM (which is quite fast, being based on MPlayer/MEncoder) or an excellent tool called VIDrop.

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.
