Multipurpose DirectShow Encoder

Multipurpose DirectShow Encoder is an advanced video and audio filter which allow you to record, multiplex or sink the media streams. The filter is used to encode and compress the streams then translate them into transport streams contained within named pipes.
The filter allows you to prompt a command-line transcoder, which runs in the background and is capable of managing the input named pipe. Specific command line arguments are supported by the filter and explained in the tool’s documentation.
Multipurpose DirectShow Encoder can run the command line transcoder in the background, in order to speed up the process. The tool includes a build version of the FFmpeg component, which allows it to manipulate the media streams and control its attributes.
However, you can open the transcoder console in a GUI, for debugging and control purpose. You may also use this graphic window to insert the command line arguments and start the processes. You may select the desired video and audio input devices, then let the tool build the graph and run the task.
A series of reserved command line words allows you to control the processes. For example, PAUSEWHENSTOP can be prompted in command line, but also from the graphic console. When specified, the graph is stopped and the media recording is paused, but both instances can resume without gaps at a later time.
Similarly, SHOWCONSOLE can instantly prompt the GUI, for debugging purposes. However, several tasks can be activated from the console, including starting the graph, pausing or resuming it.
Certain command line arguments can be used in order to generate an activity log and displayed exclusively in Command Prompt.
With supported host programs, Multipurpose DirectShow Encoder allows you to record or stream audio and video feed in several formats.
The filter also allows you to stream the audio/video source straight to the network, through media servers, or to edit and save the video. You may merge several clips into one or split a larger video, then transcode them into the desired format.Limitations in the unregistered version"Datastead" logo watermark over the video frames or shows a green flash one time then two times alternatively and periodically.
