Thank you so much for sharing this. Admittedly, I was quite skeptical at first, and even more nervous when Windows Defender tried to block it. At the end of the day, the program although a tad bit difficult to navigate worked like a charm. Converted my "30MB.mov" file to a "3MB.webM" with alpha channels enabled. Such a relief. :) The tutorial and quick rundown of how the software was extremely helpful as well, and thanks for the program working flawlessly even donated $5 to the developer! :D Thank you again for sharing this :D

Glad you liked it! I totally understand the concern, but all Windows Defender is doing is seeing if the developer is registered in their database. It's an annual subscription they have to pay and for someone developing software as a side-gig, might not be worth the cost.

Dude, thanks to you i have no problems on gifs to video conversion issues anymore. thank you for this amazing recommendation.

Fair play, this seems to work well. I didn't expect "convert these mp4s into mp3s" was going to become such a headache, but this software has been the solution so far!

this program has been a real game changer for my videos. as content creator who uses his phone for a TON of UGC content it has helped me tremendously!

This really does absolutely destroy any other converter out there in so many ways. It does feel great to finally settle on one I can trust. I found it on a forum post a month or so ago and it's just perfect.

Shutter Encoder is such a valuable tool… TC burn in while converting, loudness normalization, replacing audio without re-encoding (very useful for me as an audio engineer, and since QT Pro was abandoned…). when i dug into it i soon just HAD to donate a little something to paul, because it almost seemed unfair that this piece of software is free. go get it.

I started using Shutter Encoder software today to encode high quality video files down to a smaller size. I find that it produces amazing results as far as the video quality is concerned when I set it to variable bitrate, max quality and two pass. However the audio quality leaves much to be desired no matter what level I set the audio bitrate at. I am thinking that the problem here is that the VBR setting only applies to video and not audio? Is there a way to set the program to encode the audio in VBR as well? I should point out that the the source file's audio is 384 kbps AC3 and I'm trying to compress it down to 120 kbps AAC.

Dude, I literally managed to keep my job thanks to this software!

Very cool demo

Hi Chris, I appreciate your section on converting VFR to CFR as I've been looking for how to handle this on my project. Just so I understand though (because in your video you trimmed the output file) - if you had left it as is, would the clip duration have changed at all by using this "conform" feature? If so, I'm assuming this would eventually create syncing problems if trying to match it to the audio portion captured separately of a musical performance? Or would it? If so, how quickly would the changed duration start showing that the video is starting to lag (or be ahead of) the audio capture? When I shot my drum footage, I didn't realize my phones would be deviating from 23.976!

@BetterEditor

Thanks.

Thank you for the useful video. I’m wondering if you use the latest version of this software to simply do a MKV to .h264-MP4 conversion if there will be any loss of quality if you just use the default settings? I got tired of Handbrake as I always felt that there was a loss in image quality.

@BetterEditor

Not sure. Experimenting is really the only way to know. Flip side is that you might be surprised to learn how much lossy stuff ends up on broadcast TV.

why when i encode to h.264 or proress when i bring footage into premier sometimes at the beginning or in the middle of the footage , the footage will be like green messing up the footage for like a second or two

Here's a generic video conversion question for anyone: I have been shooting on Long GOP but then converting to ProRes (just in order to make the edit manageable). So my question is, should I be shooting All-Intra instead of Long GOP? That is, does shooting All-Intra yield any advantage in the ProRes conversion or final product? (I really am interested in this narrow question.)

@BetterEditor

Intraframe codecs are less compressed = better quality. If you're already planning to convert to a codec like prores and have the space to manage the file sizes, save yourself a step and shoot in that format. The thing is, unless you're finishing a high-end product that will be broadcast, released in theaters, or go through heavy VFX, there's nothing wrong with shooting in a long gop format.
