Introduction

This guide assumes you are familiar with encoding through CLI or you are comfortable with Megui.

Why encode with batch files? This is a good question. When you are encoding many videos, you tend to use the same configuration settings for H.264 and AAC. You may have even created your own profiles already. Once you are comfortable with Megui and realize how easy it is to use, you start getting annoyed of repeatedly clicking the same options. You already know what you want from the start, so why not simplify the process? Actually, one thing that Megui can't do is queue multiplexing jobs before the video and audio files are finished and sitting on your hard drive. So that's a big plus for batch encoding.


Setup

Choose a folder where you will do all your operations and place the following files inside. If you have Megui installed you probably already have the first three files; look in the Megui\Tools directory.
