MediaButler

MediaButler is a generic media-transcoding processor that can transcode files from linear format to many other formats. MediaButler can perform multiple audio- and videotranscodings within one discrete task.

MediaButler allows you to set up an adjustable, XML-based profile for embedding and segmenting metadata. You can also set the profile’s internal parameters to correspond with task parameters, allowing for seamless integration into workflows. MediaButler can be delivered as a singleinstance or multiple-instance application, where each instance adds a grid-based processing chain so that identical processes can run in parallel.

  BWF  
  ID3v1, ID3v2.3  for  MP3 files  
Input Formats
  WAV  
  Other input formats can be supported using the optional UniPort WaveScanner  
 
Processing
  Start/stop file-splitting based upon workflow parameters  
  Normalization values towards target value or peak value (processing in 32 bit flow) within the WAV-to-WAV step, a normalization towards a dedicated value can be performed  
  Dithering: on/off based upon triangular-shape dither  
  Channel mode: stereo, mono, left to mono, right to mono, leave original  
  Resampling: target sample rate 32, 44.1, 48, 88.2, 96, 176.4 and 192 kHz, as well as normal and double  
  Optional video transcodings by integrating third-party libraries: can added to parameters via the same XML profiles  
Output Formats
  WAV (32, 44.1, 48, 88.2, 96, 176.4, 192, kHz / 16, 24, 32bit)  
  MP2 (64 kbit-384 kbit/s)  
  MP3 (64 kbit-384 kbit/s)  
  FLAC (for 16 and 24 bit files)  
  Ogg Vorbis, WMA  
  Videoformat over third party processors
