Publisher's Description
From TMPG:
The successor to the award-winning TMPGEnc 4.0 XPress is here! Supporting many input and output formats, detailed parameter settings, a fast and precise cut-edit function, video format conversion, compression, and material creation. This is TMPGEnc, the standard choice of encoding software, reborn in its latest version: TMPGEnc Video Mastering Works 5. It offers a completely new timeline and layer editing function, making it possible to not only create materials, but also bring creative, original video mastering and output to the best formats available.
Previous generations of encoders were used to compress high quality videos and making them small enough to fit in hard disk drives with small capacities, or often tasked to meet DVD-Video, Blu-ray Disc or other specific format requirements. While such needs still exist today, video sharing websites, mobile devices offering video playback, and other video viewing options have become the main and most often targeted use. Therefore, we have re-examined what constitutes an encoder, and decided to release a new product to answer those new needs. Improved editing or filtering functions, popular MKV or WebM format support, and other new features are expanding the limits of TMPGEnc, becoming a complete Encoding Solution.
What's new in this version: Version 5.1.1.52 may include unspecified updates, enhancements, or bug fixes.

TMPGEnc has been known for high quality, full-featured MPEG encoding since the very early days of video editing and conversion. TMPGEnc Video Mastering Works is their pinnacle achievement, and includes every feature, option, and customization available. Beginners can simply add files of any format into a project, click next twice, select an output target format, and encode. Advanced videographers can use the powerful timeline editor to design limitless special effects. Hardcore MPEG geeks can tweak every conceivable option to get their video output just right.

"Extremely slow converter."
Version: TMPGEnc Video Mastering Works 4.7.3.292
Pros
It can set up and convert more than 1 movie and record on 1 single disc.
Cons
One of the slowest converters.
Summary
I spent about 36 hours to convert 2 movies each about 1 and 1/2 hrs into one file so that I can burn it into one single disc.
It's name is Xpress TMPGEne but it contradicts with it's performance. -
"One Of The Best"
Version: TMPGEnc Video Mastering Works 4.7.1.284
Pros
great quality video encoding.
add effects to your video, cut video
just about a whole package to encode your videos with advanced settingsCons
kind of slow for me but the quality is worth the wait
Summary
I use this program to redo mp .MPG files recorded from SageTV and convert them to MPEG-4 and works very good. You can add effects to your video and use filters such as deinterlace, video crop noise reduction, color correction audo noise reduction, video/audio fade in plus even more.
cut your videos frame by frame choosing your "start point" and "end point" of video
output video to MPG AVI MPEG-4 VOB quictime MOV DivX Buray MPEG stadarrd format Super Video MPG Standard, standard MPEG and more. audio only output too like Wave, MPEG audio, Dolby Digital audio.
before encoding you can choose video and audio bitrate of choice (as always should) FPS Aspect Ratio select video passing option (1 pass or 2 pass VBR or CBR and all that.
I had Very nice looking encoding results (depending on source video for you) in sync video.
I recommend this one. Thanks for reading. -
"Good Reproduction"
Version: TMPGEnc Video Mastering Works 4.6.2.266
Pros
the program produces a nice image in a multiable of formats which is handy for making video dvd or just editing your footage a feature a lot of others don't do very well like nero and window movie maker
Cons
the processing time I have found to be on the slow side when compared with programs like format factory and nero recode for this reason I would say the price is a little high
Summary
using the trail verison I have found this program gives a good reproduction and in some cases improved the image quality as with the audio I found no real change from the orginal track. from an editing and design point i find this program to offer a little more flexablity compare to some like ulead and cyberlink software

"simple, fast, efficient, Swiss Army Knife of video conv."
Version: TMPGEnc Video Mastering Works 4.4.2.238
Pros
so many well integrated codecs;
Complete availability of all parameters;
Template capability; Batch processing to sleep at night;
Handles AVCHD nicely. Excellent encoders
Cons
The cut/Edit editor is not the best i know, forget it.
If MPEG is the base format ( from SD to HDV ) , use Mpeg video Wizard.

"BEST Video Converter Ever !"
Version: TMPGEnc Video Mastering Works 4.4.2.238

"Works great! An excellent encoder."
Version: TMPGEnc Video Mastering Works 4.2.10.211
Pros
BTW, the trial download is working now.
This is a great product if you need to re-encode video files or prepare videos for DVD authoring, for showing on the web at sites like Youtube, etc. You can basically encode any video to any other video format (there are exceptions of course, but there's a wide range of formats in this thing!). I also like all the filters, which will help you de-interlace your video or fix colors. Good stuff!
Cons
Hmmm.. the price? It's a bit steep but you get a fairly robust encoder. Lots of settings that you can adjust.

"Unusable Download"
Version: TMPGEnc Video Mastering Works 4.2.10.211
Cons
This is the retail version, not the trial version. Complete waste of time. Download was extremely slow at 12kb/s, only to find that it was the wrong file. I'll do my downloading somewhere else next time.
