Gmerlin transoder can transcode every supported input file to any of the supported output files. It has some unique features, which seperate it from other transcoding applications. Most notably:
gmerlin_transcoder
allows you to save all settings and load them later.
Once you have found out your favourite encoder settings for a specific task,
transcoding is a matter of
gmerlin_transcoder
imports all chapter seekpoints from the source, and writes
them into the file (currently only supported for Quicktime and mp4).
You can also edit chapter lists or create new ones
gmerlin_transcoder
lets you import, edit and export language codes for
the Audio- and subtitle streams
There is a tasklist, in which the tracks are queued. All newly loaded tracks get the globally configured settings (plugins, formats, filters). You can then fine-tune the tracks by configuring them individually. Changing track parameters for multiple tracks at once isn't possible. Instead, make the settings, save them to a profile and load the profile before loading the tracks.
