WMEA Encoding Guide

Only 4 steps you need to get WMEA to work.

1. Recommended Codecs:

For MPEG-2 files (.ts / .mpg / .vob)
Install Elecard MPEG-2 3.0 Decoder & Streaming Pack.
Tip: recommend Microsoft Windows XP Video Decoder Checkup Utility for configuring MPEG-2 decoder.

For AC3 audio content
Install AC3Filter (1.11 tested).
Tip: Configured output mode of AC3Filter for 3/2+SW or other multi-channel setting

For MPEG-4 files (.avi)
Install FFdshow (build 20060810 tested).

For Real Media files (.ra / .rm. / rmvb)
Install Real Alternative.

For QuickTime files (.mov / .hdmov / .qt / .3gp)
Install QuickTime Alternative (1.78 tested).

For MKV files (.mkv)
Install Matroska Pack.

These codecs will make your source files can be played by Windows Media Player.

2. Add your files to WMEA job list or drag them into the list.

3. Set encoding settings.
Tip: using 1pass encoding mode for AC3 audio content(CBR-1Pass, VBR-Quality).If you are using 2pass encoding mode (CBR-2Pass, VBR-ABR, VBR-PBR) for AC3 audio content, the encoding process will stuck and the size of output file will keep 6K bytes.

4. Start your encoding job.

If you still have no luck with WMEA, try to do:
1. Uninstall all your codec packs, clear up system registry. Make sure you have no codec conflict problems.
2. Install mentioned decoders & WMEA.
3. Try again.
