Excluding Video Types
It is possible to exclude video types, by clicking the Filter button. Only
videos with a check mark are converted.
Joining Video Files
Multiple video files can be joined as one final video file. If the source files are all the same codec, and resolution (such as h264) then it is possible to join using the Encoder 'MP4 (copy, no encoding)'. If however source files are different resolutions or codecs then encoding should be done (by choosing an encoder such as MP4 (H264)). Additionally if the source files are different resolutions, include the DSP effect 'scale absolute' to set a matching size.
To join videos, select the folder(s) or file(s) in Batch Converter, then click 'List', next choose the option 'Concatenate',
on the next page the order of the files can be set by dragging up or down.
Then click Convert.
Profiles
If a profile is
created, or select a previous profile: all selections are automatically
saved to that profile, this also includes all entries under 'Filter' and
settings made later in Video Converter.
It is possible to save file selections with the profile, the allows the same set of files to be automatically selected each time.
