iPod Media Encoder converts video into an iPod-compatible format, the easy way. As I was bored with the already existing converters like Videora, Xvid4PSP etc, I made this simple & efficient video converter. The profiles should be easy enough to figure, keeping in mind that slower encoding also means better video quality.
The new video files are created by default in the same folder as iPodME.
Features:
– small (4 Mb), no setup, only 1 exe to put where you want, no codecs needed
- based on ffmpeg
- really easy to use and straighforward
- easy batch encoding, just select multiple files by clicking on the “add files” button or drag’n drop them into the list
- you can add new files to the batch during encoding
- run in background without disturbing your work (with the defaut priority option)
- 6 profiles adapted to most usage : 3 encoding speed, each optimized for file size or video quality
- possibility to customize the encoding options
- support soft-subtitles, and multiple subtitles per video
- support multiple CPU cores automatically
- can shutdown your computer after encoding
History:
- 07/01/08 – Version 1.0:
* original release
- 10/01/08 – Version 1.1:
+ added support for .srt subtitles
+ added a custom profile to allow modification of the encoding profile
= adjusted profiles a bit for more quality & encoding speed
= fixed various bugs
- 19/02/08 – Version 1.2:
+ added automatic FPS detection/correction, correcting the “video can’t be added to iTunes problem”
+ added a rough ETA estimation for the current conversion
+ added a “shutdown when finished” option
+ added the possibility to use DirectShow codecs instead of internal ffmpeg’s codecs (should support video formats than can’t be decoded by ffmpeg, if you have the right codecs for it)
+ added help file
= corrected a bug with custom profiles (libx264 ones were missing an option causing the video to not be iPod-compatible)
= corrected a bug with the ouptut path: now it will always be the same path as where iPodME is
= fixed window size problem which occured on some computers
- 12/02/09 – Version 2.0:
+ added support for soft-subtitles and multiple subtitles per video
- removed subtitles burning and DirectShow input support (AviSynth/VobSub no longer needed)
+ new input codecs supported
+ added a new encoder mode for custom profile: “output size” allow you to specify a target file size, the corresponding average bitrate will be automatically calculated (experimental).
+ output folder is now changeable
+ better remaining time estimation
= tweaked profiles to reflect last ffmpeg changes, provides faster encoding in most cases, better quality and smaller file sizes
= fixed a bug when iPodME was minimized and could be locked
= fixed some UI bugs
- 23/02/09 – Version 2.1:
+ last settings are now saved and automatically restored at start
= fixed the incorrect FPS detection bug with systems using a point as the decimal separator
= temporary files are now cleaned correctly before shutting down the computer
- 13/03/09 – Version 2.2:
+ subtitles files are now automatically converted to UTF8 format (no more mp4box UTF8 errors)
+ added a “Fix aspect ratio” option which try to correct distorted videos aspect (use it only when needed)
+ added the possibility to specify the aspect ratio in the custom profile
= updated help
= minor source license modification
= fixed bug when input has .mp4 extension causing input and output file names to be identical
= temporary files are now cleaned correctly before shutting down the computer
- 03/06/09 – Version 2.3:
= quickly fixed the problem with accents in subtitles

very nice… simple and efficient.
Just one question: it only uses one core of the quad I use.
Will it be fixed ?
5.
Noda | January 29, 2008 at 1:28 am
There must be something wrong with your computer, as it was reported many times working nicely with the 2 or 4 cores used at 100%…

Do you think you could make this for all frameworks?

What do you mean? it should work nice also with .Net 3.0 or higher, 2.0 is minimum required.

absolutely fantastic.. converting dexter ep1×01 from a HD 700mb rip to mp4-utilises 3 cores off my intel quad. took about 9mins to re-encode and finished with a 174mb file.
only probs i can see is video and audio can go out of sync if u skip through the video many times..

Eye-Pod | February 17, 2008 at 1:05 pm
Hi, I want to feature an article about this in French; unfortunately I can’t use the software as parts of the GUI are not visible (such as the “Encode” button) and it’s not resizable!?
I use Win XP on a Dell Laptop, with a Vista mod style, maybe that doesn’t help, but as is, I can’t use your software..
Any suggestions?
Thank you, Eye-Pod

Hi there.
Very nice and simple program. Thank you so much.
A liltte documentation about the profiles would be nice.
Even nicer would a “Shutdown when finished” button be
An increase of the fontsize when “burning” subtitles into the movie would also be very nice.
/Jan

Pierre | February 18, 2008 at 9:15 am
Super = too good.
I would like to know what profile I should for best quality with smallest size, regardless of CPU usage (I got lots of CPU to spare).
25.
Noda | February 19, 2008 at 4:24 am
you have to choose: best quality or smaller size.
Then, the slower is the profile, the better is the quality.
26.
Jan | February 19, 2008 at 2:28 pm
Noda wrote: “you have to choose: best quality or smaller size.
Then, the slower is the profile, the better is the quality.”
What does “slow, size” “Slow quality”, “Fast size”….. and so on mean?
If I choose Custom and then “Best quality” and “x264″ iTunes says that my Ipod Touch won’t play the file.
Which profile should I use?
27.
Noda | February 19, 2008 at 11:14 pm
this bug has been corrected.
as for the profiles, everything is explained in latest version help.

Hi
Program works, but everytime I start to convert, I get the message “An error occured while detecting video format. The output video may be unreadable”.
I tried iPodME on three different computers (vista, xp, xp); all showed the same problem.
What am I doing wrong and how can I solve this problem?
It drives me nuts to always press “OK” before another file starts to convert. It should proceed automatically without this error message, right?
Thanks for your help!
32.
Anonymous | February 23, 2008 at 3:27 pm
good program… except for that little delay problem..
does the frame rate must be an int like you use in your program?
33.
Noda | February 23, 2008 at 6:15 pm
Jake> that’s because your video must use a format that ffmpeg doesn’t recognize.
Anonymous> the frame rate is adjusted to the nearest correct fps value: 10, 12, 15, 20, 24000/1001 (23.97), 24, 25, 30000/1001 (29.97), 30.

Great program, but one request.
It would be nice to be able to choose the save location.
Just ran it for the first time and had to hunt hi and low to see where it had saved it.
It put it into this directory:
c:\users\*username*\appdata\local\temp\rar$ex00\
Strange location.
36.
Noda | February 24, 2008 at 10:31 pm
dave> the video is saved in the same directory as iPodME.
37.
dave | February 24, 2008 at 11:11 pm
Thanks noda,
Just changed it location and tried again, yes it saved it in the right place this time.
Another problem thou.
The saved file after conversion when double clicked under vista says :
‘Error -2048: couldnt open file becasue its not a file that quicktime understands.’
Now the file has an icon showing its an MPg4, itunes doesnt recognise it and using gspot the only information it shows is the container :
‘isom:MP4 Base Media v1[iso 14496-12:2003]
-mp41: MP4 v1 [ISO 14496-1:ch13]
any ideas whats going on?
I’m using vista 64bit

That’s strange. You can try installing vobsub filter as explained in the help (problem with subtitles)
41.
AFX | February 29, 2008 at 7:07 am
This is a pretty fuckin sweet program, Im getting 240FPS off a quad 6700 which is MUCH better than the 40-50 on all other programs.
Very well done, you should be proud.
42.
Cristian | February 29, 2008 at 10:18 pm
Noda, i have the same problem than Genesis, and i have the vobsub but didn’t work
43.
Genesis | March 2, 2008 at 5:24 pm
Cristian/Noda:
Vobsub didn´t work for me either. I even copied the vsfilter.dll to system32 sudir as requested. No good at all.
FYI: IPodME works flawlessly if I don´t use subtitles. Maybe there´s a bug between IPodMe/AVISynth interface (just a guess). My procedure nowadays to make an iTouch video with subtitles is burning the subtitle to the AVI using VirtualDubMod+TextSub filter (time consuming…) and then converting the subtitled AVI to MP4 using iPodME.
Any suggestions?
Great software, anyway. Congrats.

The mp4 file will not synch to my ipod. It will go into Itunes and play through itunes with no problem, but when I try to synch to ipod it says it does not recognise the format, so it will not put it on the ipod.

Hey,
Really good program!
Only one problem, like Genesis. But it happens only when I add to the “list to convert” a file located on my external HD. If I put this file on my Internal HD, there is no problem anymore!
Do you know from were it could be coming from?
Thanks for your help and your Job!

Great little app. Besides the fact that it has the most useful features it’s especially nice that it is portable and that it keeps it’s own codecs.
A lot of other video converting apps install some terrible codec pack which messes up your carefully selected codecs. 
Summary: Thanks for a great app. Will definately spread the word, so to speak.

blunden | June 10, 2008 at 4:50 pm
Seems to be having a problem converting an mkv clip (x264 video, AC3 audio) I have. It just stops and a small file is created (incomplete). No log is presented either. I didn’t find any in the temp folder either.
Doesn’t it support mkv? If not, are you planning to add it or will installing AviSynth and using my directshow splitter/codecs work?
74.
blunden | June 10, 2008 at 5:04 pm
Nevermind. I just forgot to uncheck the “Use .srt subtitles” checkbox. Maybe you should have it unchecked standard, or have it save the last used settings to an ini-file in the same folder as the app. That would still keep it portable and clean.

Darlyn | June 12, 2008 at 9:13 pm
This app is the reason I still own an iPod. It has been working perfectly for me since the first day I tried it.
Now, I want to change the directory converted videos are placed in. I imagine this could be done by editing the source code. I have never coded in C/C++ or whatever this is in. Could someone direct me as to what I must do to modify the source code?

I’ve been using this app ever since I got my touch back around december. works perfectly. Image quality is great, even at highest settings it encodes over 100fps on my core2duo. I’ve converted hundreds of videos with no issues whatsoever.

Thanks to everyone who likes this application, and to all donators!
I’m currently very busy now as I’m moving together with my girlfriend and starting a new job soon, but I promise that there will be an update as soon as it’s possible, I’ve some great ideas for the next versions

Norwegian User | August 8, 2008 at 12:30 am
I am thinking of making a donation, since this little program is so nice.. But i stumbled across one problem.. It wont convert svcd files (mpeg2).. That was a real downer. I have all codecs installed.. Maybe you can implement that in next version?..
Anyway.. Thanks for a great program.. I like how you keep it small and simple.. And of course.. Without ads! 
87.
Noda | August 11, 2008 at 7:46 am
I’ll check the svcd format for the next release, but I can’t promise anything as the conversion is handled by ffmpeg… Did you try checking ‘use directshow codecs’ in advanced options?
88.
Banshee | August 13, 2008 at 9:28 am
Fantastic app, searched high and low for something this simple. However, the one issue for me is that is always saves the encoded file in the same directory as the original file, not the ipodme directory. I am hoping in the future you can set a default “encode to” directory for all files?
89.
Badghost | August 16, 2008 at 6:54 am
First, I would like to thank Noda for the application.
Second, for the people with the subtittle issue, I think I founded the problem. I think Genesis (message 38) had same problem, his path is in portuguese (…C:\Documents and Settings\Administrador\ConfiguraÇÕes locais…) and are accented caracters. Mine too.
I modified the default TEMP and TMP for my user (System, Advanced, Environment Variables) to a X:\temp, and.. works fine!
I hope this can help others with same problem, and Noda, to fix it.
Thx!
90.
Banshee | August 16, 2008 at 10:15 am
more info. It seems that ipodme saves the encoded files to the same directory as the first video in the batch list. Not the same folder as ipodme, but all on the same folder.
The only thing it could be is that more source videos are on the network?

Banshee | August 30, 2008 at 8:54 am
solved my problem. Ipodme creates the converted files in the same folder as the source if you run it from a network drive. If you run it from a local drive it works as expected.

98.
Fredd-E | September 30, 2008 at 9:49 am
I’m also having the lip sync / audio sync problem.
It only seems to occur when I use the “use srt subtitles” feature. So I guess it has got something to do with Avisynth.
I’ve used “Fast, size” two times. One with and the other without the subtitles.
Without srt = all synced up.
With srt = lip sync problem.
Is this something that can be fixed? Or is it a limitation / bug in Avisynth?
By the way, ipodme is currently my favourite encoder to use with my ipod touch. It’s small, easy to use, free and it just works!
I’ll be willing to donate if the .srt feature could be fixed.

WelshUK | October 21, 2008 at 4:28 pm
Excellent app mate well done in providing a FREE coverter for all
Will you ever incorporate a 2 pass profile this would give superb picture quality even on a 500kbps video
Also a 30fps-25fps-20fps option
Also could you change the profiles from quick fast turbo to something like
Profile 1 : 400kbps 1 Pass
Profile 2 : 400kbps 2 Pass
Profile 3 : 500kbps 1 Pass
Profile 4 : 500kbps 2 Pass
etc etc
103.
WelshUK | October 21, 2008 at 4:34 pm
Damn cant edit post
The reason i ask about profiles with kbps listed is that if i have an avi encoded at 750kbps then i only need to reencode at 700kbps or lower there is no point in throwing more kbps at it than what is needed
At the moment with your profiles noone knows what the kbps quality is so we are blindly reencoding
104.
Noda | October 21, 2008 at 6:33 pm
2 pass is useless using h264 encoder:
- 2 pass is only useful to achieve a fixed bitrate, and maximze quality for that bitrate
-> h264 on best option achieve image-quality based bitrate, it means that it won’t go further than your video’s original bitrate (as low bitrate will reduce quality), and optimize the video to provide a constant quality over constant bitrate, which is a better solution.
And the reason there’s no bitrate in my profile is because they’re all quality-based and not birate based: if your inpu video has bad quality the used bitrate will be lower than if your video has a high qualiy.
105.

108.
Goshko | November 25, 2008 at 12:17 pm
Hey Noda! Great app, thanks a lot for it, I converted virtually thousands of files with it
I updated to the latest version of AviSynth, there’s an alpha from September 2008, but that didn’t help. Any ideas how to fix this? If I turn off the subs it works ok…
Unfortunately a problem has arisen. I updated to the latest build of the CCCP codecs and now when I select an output with subs I get the following message in the output window > “Resampling with input channels greater than 2 unsupported.
Can not resample 3 channels @ 48000 Hz to 2 channels @ 44100 Hz
Ready.”, and it only makes a 1kb file
Oh, and by the way I noticed if I set the priority to high it still only utilizes one of my CPUs and in the task manager I see it’s taking 50% CPU time, will you make the app take advantage of dual core processors?
Thanks in advance,
goshko

Is .NET 2.0 still a minimum? I’ve tried adding a basic WMV file (the default getting started file in Mydocs>My Videos) and it clears the convert list immediately and no processor usage. I only have .net 2.0 and compact framework 2.0 installed, just wondered whether minimum specs have been revised.

Chris | January 12, 2009 at 10:33 am
Hi Noda, great piece of software.
I can confirm that your software runs on all available cores.
What doesn’t run on all available cores though is FFmpeg.exe.
On my Quad core Q6600 it can do a 1 hour vid in 15 minutes and that’s with ffmpeg maxiing out the 1 core out of 4 available.
On the console output you have the -threads set to auto but I read someware that setting it to zero will use all available.
This in itself may not be the best idea as if it’s uncontrollably using all cores the users PC will grind to a halt so maybe in your next build you could have it as an option?
Potentially it could cut the converting time by another 75%
Regards,
Chris

However, there has been some problems in opening the program when I try to run it from my D-Link DNS323 NAS.
Could it be because the network drive, which is connected to my computer via the router by an Ethernet cable, is not recognized as a “real” hard drive? It appears as Y: drive on my computer.
Was hoping you could help me with this.

Howdy,
I hacked a version of IpodME that uses the latest FFMPEG and the proper -thread parameter. I can confirm that there is NO speed increase on a Core Duo whatsover between this version and the one Noda has up on his site. The only advantage is that some more exotic input formats can be read (Real Video 4) without DirectShow.
Noda, if you want my slightly modified source (new parameters and size parsing to attribute for changes in FFMPEG), you got my Email.

The soft subtitles only works with the iPod. To see them on your pc, use quicktime and rename the file to m4v, however the subtitle size will be messed up. It’s made to work on ipod, not PC.

Hello Noda, it seems that 2.0 (or whatever version of ffpmeg you included) uses more system resources than the previous versions. My system heats up fairly quickly if the encoder utilizes both cores, so I’ve always just restricted it to a single core without any heating issues.
With 2.0 even single core usage generates enough heat that it negatively affects my computer. What exactly did you include in this version? A list of what the updates entail should be published, I think.
Looks like I’ll keep using 1.2. Thanks again for such a great app!

@darlynp: Yeah, that’s the expected behavior, ffmpeg has been optimized to take advantage of multicore processor. What’s the point of having 2 cores if the programs can’t use it then?
I don’t get the point of having a dual core processor if you don’t want to use that power because it heats up your system :-s
Also, all the modifications I’ve done since version 1.2 are listed in the changelog which is on this page, if you’re interested.

darlynp | February 15, 2009 at 7:28 pm
Excellent. If you’re curious about my rig, it’s poorly designed, prebuilt line of computers from one of the major vendors of today. They advertise dual-core performance yet the product can’t handle it. Never buying an assembled unit again.

Noda | February 15, 2009 at 10:11 pm
Ow, yeah I know how these machines could be crappy designed, sorry for that.
I can however suggest you using some tool to control the frequency of you CPU, like rmclock (never tested it on a desktop though) as now the desktop CPU have frequency control like laptop CPU, this could help you manage your heat problem.

@Catalin
I tested various sources video at 24.98 fps, and I could not reproduce the problem. Even testing my fps detection function with the data of your log did not showed any problem. Could you please upload an extract (10s should be enough) of your video to rapidshare or megaupload and post the download link here?
Thanks.

You need to enable subtitles in the options, then activate them by click the board icon while playing the video.

the final output is wrong!!!

I used your video and could never reproduce the bug, that’s strange :/ What are your exact setting? Do you try to convert multiple video at a time or only this one?
Could you tell me your system version, and what exact iPodME settings you’re using?
@Jason> Even though that’s not very elegant, while I’m searching the cause of this bug you can still use the “custom” profile with the additional parameter “-r ” to force using the indicated fps.
@Cam> To use convert video for the iPod 5G, you must select the 320×240 resolution.

Simply the best convertor for iPod video. Still, even with new version 2 as it’s become better. It does make me wonder why those other, commercial convertors are so bad – good work, thanks for this little programme!
But, I’ll repeat my one wish: that it would convert files in original video size (e.g. widescreen) so I can watch it from iTunes as well when it’s a video that came with a CD single – iTunes does convert MOV videos in various sizes. Maybe an idea for V3?

@wildberry> iPod can’t read video with resolution greater than 640×480, so since it’s an iPod converter I won’t provide any bigger resolution or people will complain it’s not working on their ipods
But if you really want to use iPodME for this, choose a custom profile and as an additional parameter enter “-s x”, you can then specify the size you want (but video may not be playable on ipod then).
@ralliart12> Can you post here the output log (click the “v” button) when you try a “fast” or “slow” profile? Thanks.
@Boutils> Same thing, can you post the output log please? You can check there (at the end) what may have caused the problem with subtitles.

Yes, the error is obviously in your .srt. As it shouts an UTF data error, you should try to open your file with Notepad++ and check if there is an incorrect character (normal text viewers won’t show invalid UTF characters).
You can also try to convert your file to standard ascii using Notepad++.

@Austin> Please read the help file. Embedded subtitles are NOT supported, only external .srt file are supported for subtitles.
@Thilo> Hmm… This converter use “pixel aspect ratio” of the input video, which means is your video has a size of 640×480 for example, AR will be 640:480 = 4:3. If the size of your video is different than the internal AR (bad practice) it may be distorted. I’ll see if I can check for the internal AR for the next version.
@Boutils> I’ll see what I can do, but that’s not normal as it means your subtitles have bad character encoding.

This software works really well. Thank you! Just a side note. When I have 2 external .srt files, say en and fr, none of them are displayed on my iPod Touch. If I use only one (either en or fr), subtitles are displayed right.

Great Program.
I really like batch encoding feature with subtitle support.
But when I play in ipod-touch and select the subtitle, it shows ‘unkown title’. (Need to add ttext:lang=ko in MP4Box)
In addition, when I open the container, it shows
isom: MP4 Base Media v1 [IS0 14496-12:2003]
- iso2: MP4 Base Media v2 [ISO 14496-12:2005]
- avc1: MP4 Base w/ AVC ext [ISO 14496-12:2005]
- mp41: MP4 v1 [ISO 14496-1:ch13]
Original from apple trailer
M4V : Apple iTunes Video (.M4V) Video
- M4A : Apple iTunes AAC-LC (.M4A) Audio
- mp42: MP4 v2 [ISO 14496-14]
- isom: MP4 Base Media v1 [IS0 14496-12:2003]
It’s still good application.
I hope next release will have following features:
1. UTF-8 check & convert (when importing srt subtitle, check the code)
2. Subtitle language selection (or optional input language input field)
3. M4V file saving (Not mp4)
4. SMI subtilte support

Noda | March 1, 2009 at 4:46 pm
@dryadz> as explained in the help file, to set the language code of your subtitles, your need to postfix it to the file name, ie mysub.en.srt.
I’ll see what can be done for UTF8 checking, it should not be too difficult to implement it.
What do you means by “SMI subtitles” by the way?
For the m4v/mp4 thing, it’s basically the same container, only the filename changes. One problem is that with m4v files, subtitles are played with a bad position in quicktime, and mp4 files are more universal.
@Dodich> I’m french
And the next version will maybe include multilanguage support based on the system language, if I found time to implement it. Thanks anyway.

I have Xvid AVI source files.
The convertor distorts aspect ratios, in Slow and Fast profiles. However, the Turbo profiles works fine.
Studying the console window, I found that Turbo profiles add “-aspect 480:272″ (or whatever the real resolution is) option to the command line.
Slow and Fast profiles don’t add this option, and show this suspicious extra line in the console output: [libx264 @ 01847460]using SAR=17/24.
219.
Pete | March 4, 2009 at 9:56 am
Another problem that I have found: it does not convert all audio streams of the source file, just one. If I have a movie with English and French audio, only the first audio track will get converted and the other one will get lost.

Noda | March 5, 2009 at 8:55 am
@Pete> It’s your video that has a wrong aspect ratio then (17/24). Try playing it on quicktime (or any video player that respect aspect ratio) for example, it will be distorted the same way.
The “-aspect 480:272″ parameter is added when using turbo mode because of a bug in the current version of ffmpeg than prevents libxvid to receive the aspect ratio settings from the decoder.
Concerning the multiple audio streams, that’s the correct behavior as only one audio stream is supported for ipod videos, the first one of the source being used.
223.
Pete | March 5, 2009 at 10:35 am
Noda, thanks for your answer. However, my copy of QuickTime cannot play XviD AVI files. It shows only black screen – but these black screens are always in the right aspect ratio and resolution, no distortion.
Also, the source files play fine in GOM player and Windows Media Player, as well as on five hardware DivX players that I have access to (two different Philips DVD players, Toshiba and Umax photo frames and Palm PDA).
Multiple audio streams in iPod videos are possible, just like multiple subtitles. For instance, see the screenshots at http://stefan.wops.de/blog/files/Video-mit-2-Audio-Tracks-auf-iPod-touch.php
224.
Noda | March 5, 2009 at 2:43 pm
I didn’t know that iPods support multiple audio channels, thanks. However I’m not sure ffmpeg support multiple audio tracks for output, I’ll check that.
Concerning the aspect ratio, many players don’t care of the aspect ratio set defined inside the video track, currently only ffmpeg with an option activated or quicktime / apple hardware players for those I’m aware of. That’s not a pretty standard behavior, but most players assume the pixel aspect ratio (aka the resolution) of the video is the same as the aspect ratio of the video, which is most of the time true, but sometimes wrong.
A video is allowed for example to have a size of 320×240 (4:3 pixel aspect ratio) but a 16:9 aspect ratio, and most players will plays it distorted (not ipods, though). Your problem is exactly the opposite, the internal (17:24) aspect ratio is wrong but as most players ignore it, it’s fine.
I’ll maybe add a “Fix aspect ratio” option in the next version. for those rare cases, or simply use like most players the pixel aspect ratio.

Could you possibly add a feature to create one big file out of several YouTube videos? Like if you are downloading a show that is in many videos and want it to be put back together into one file?
227.
gtnconcept | March 10, 2009 at 12:32 am
From my testing using a 756×576 16:9 MPG from digital TV broadcast (pixel aspect is stored correctly in the MPG file):
- x264 modes retain correct PAR
- XviD modes encode as 1:1 ration (image is horizontally compressed)
Also, when the encoding input folder is the same as the output folder, and the input file is already MP4, you should check the filename to make sure the source file will not be overwritten (resulting in a video that is only 1 frame long).
I’d like to finish with a feature request that many people may find useful:
- user selection of input aspect ratio
- user selection of output aspect ratio
- user choice of “stretch to aspect” or “crop to aspect”

Noda | March 10, 2009 at 12:31 pm
Thanks for your suggestions.
I’ve already started some work to parse the AR correctly, and already fixed the UTF8 problem for subtitles.
Currently, Xvid encoder has a bug that prevents the original AR of videos to be used, that’s why I force it to 1:1 which works most of the time. x264 retains the original aspect.
I will probably add some advanced and custom options to specify explicitely the aspect ratio of videos.
In the meantime, using a custom profile with the additional parameter “-ar ” can be used.
230.
Pete | March 10, 2009 at 1:55 pm
Noda 218: Thanks for your explanation. I understand what you mean, however, I cannot make any other software show anything wrong with the files. I downloaded GSpot 2.70a which analyzes video files and shows (among other stats) their SAR, PAR and DAR. All of them are OK for all the files, yet iPodME uses all kinds of strange SARs when converting. Some examples:
File 1 – 480×272 resolution
GSpot says: SAR 1.765 (30:17) PAR 1.000 (1:1) DAR 1.765 (30:17)
iPodME says: using SAR=17/36
File 2 – 480×272 resolution
GSpot says: SAR 1.765 (30:17) PAR 1.000 (1:1) DAR 1.765 (30:17)
iPodME says: using SAR=17/24
File 3 – 416×320 resolution
GSpot says: SAR 1.300 (13:10) PAR 1.000 (1:1) DAR 1.300 (13:10)
iPodME says: using SAR=25/39
File 4 – 416×320 resolution
GSpot says: SAR 1.300 (13:10) PAR 1.000 (1:1) DAR 1.300 (13:10)
iPodME says: using SAR=110/117
Do you think GSpot is showing SAR/PAR/DAR wrong? If so, do you recommend any other tool that would show SAR/PAR/DAR correctly?
231.
Noda | March 11, 2009 at 10:04 am
Actually, Gspot only calculates SAR/DAR using the resolution, not reading the internal video properties (480/272 = 1.765).
iPodME is based on FFmpeg, which parses AR from 2 things:
- the AR defined in the container (avi, mp4, mkv etc)
- the AR defined in the video stream
Both should be identical. If they are different, FFmpeg use the AR from the video stream (which is the right choice) and overrides the AR of the container.
For what I’m aware of, Quicktime should display you the correct AR in the video properties.

iPodME 2.2 is choking when trying to convert MP4s which were produced by Nero Recode 4 (part of the Nero 9 suite). Maybe ffmpeg toolset can’t properly decode an MP4 that was created by Nero? Maybe an MP4 produced by Nero is not fully compliant with standards?

first of all, many thanks for sharing this tool – very useful
only 2 observations:
1 – in version 2.2, the subtitles are messed by that “utf-8 conversion”. things like é, á, ã, é, í, etc turn into “squares” when i watch the movie on ipod or kmplayer on pc (i am in brazil by the way)
2 – when the filename is something like that:
video.abc.dvd.avi
and the srt is something like that:
video.abc.dvd.srt
i believe the subtitles doesn´t “inject” in the avi
just removing the “.” and replacing by “spaces” resolves this little problem
nothing serious – but maybe in the future this step is not needed anymore 
again, many thanks and greetings from brazil

Thanks for adding the aspect ratio options noda.
Getting some unusual results with output resolution.
- I start with a 16:9 720×576 MPG (ok)
- I select 480×320 and 16:9 options (ok)
- I manually set cropleft * cropright to 96 (ok)
- iPodMe sets ffmpeg to 400×320 output (ok)
- ffmpeg detects source aspect is anamorphic (?)
- final output is 208×320 with 4:3 aspect (incorrect?)
The final aspect is correct, but a lot of quality is lost due to the much lower resolution.
I think when manually setting the output aspect, the input’s pixel aspect should be ignored to properly use the selected encode resolution.

@Deion> mkv works, although there’s no way to choose the audio track that will be used (subs must be external) except by using the -map option in the additional parameters of the custom profiles (see ffmpeg manual).
@sheep> that’s why I wrote in the help file that multiple subtitles support is experimental for now, and may not work.

Hi Noda,
Thanks for the software. I’ve downloaded it but I’m sorry to say that I don’t know how to install it. I’ve clicked on files after downloading but it asks me to select the application to open it.
I don’t know what to select.
I have checked that I have Net framework. I have XP,it had net framework 1.1 plus the service pack 2 so I don’t think that is the problem. Thanks for helping out. I’m obviously not a techie.
Mary

Noda | April 1, 2009 at 7:51 am
@Tim> Search on microsoft website or google to download and install it.
@Mary> To open the download file, you need a program that supports .ZIP archives, like 7zip (http://www.7-zip.org).
You also need to update your .Net frameword to at least version 2.0 or else it won’t work (google or go on microsoft website for that).

Florin Andrei | May 10, 2009 at 3:25 am
Nice app!
Two observations:
1. It would be nice to write the log somewhere, after the app has finished encoding. Maybe in the same directory as the .cfg file.
2. Sometimes the source file is a 4:3 image, but embedded in a 16:9 frame (letterboxing) by a clueless person. In this case, the ideal is to cut off the left/right black bars (the letterbox) and create a clean 4:3 output.
Currently, iPodME resizes the image and, if the output format is 640×480, will preserve the ugly letterbox and make the image smaller – 640×3**
So, therefore, the app should provide a way to specify how the output ratio is achieved – by zooming or by cutting. When encoding 16:9 -> 4:3, cutting is more appropriate.
I tried “fix aspect ratio”, and it does create a 640×480 output, but it preserves the letterbox and the image is distorted.
295.
Fabio | May 11, 2009 at 12:17 am
Hey Noda, thanks for the amazing app.
I have a feature suggestion here. I noticed on some videos that scenes that should be pitch black were not rendered as pure black in the ipod screen (the letterbox black bars look “blacker” than the video’s black screen). Of course this is a matter of black point/levels adjustment and my suggestion is an “automatic levels adjustment” that makes a somewhat reliable scan of the movie, detects the darkest “black” used and corrects the video, pushing it to pure black (same can be done with white point, of course).
With a feature like that we would at least be using the full screen tone range, instead of a cropped range limited by some movie’s bad black/white point adjustment. Considering that the ipod screen’s black level is not big deal in the first place, exploring the full range would be nice.
Best regards

Hi Noda!
Great app you have here, does a heck of a lot for something so small.
Had a problem that I believe may be related to the version of FFMPEG contained in iPodME 2.2. Basically, FFMPEG is unable to convert mulit-cahnnel audio over to stereo (in this case it’s 6ch to 2ch). Not sure if there’s anything that you can do about this aside from new FFMPEG libs but wanted to mention it (log will be at the end of comment).
A couple suggestions for new features that would make iPodME better than 99% of other converters out there are support for embedded subtitles and audio track selection (not sure if FFMPEG supports these).
In my case, these are the only features missing for me to be able to use this app as my only iPhone converter. You already have the essentials very well taken care of.
Thanks for a great app!

i’ve spent weeks looking for anything decent to convert my tv episode dvd’s to ipod video/classic and finally! something actually worked and great!!
one question: is it possible to have all the chapters/titles united into one big file? it’s converting each vts_xx_x.vob file individually, but would be nice to be able to just have into one on the ipod.
is this already available and i can’t find the setting?
thanks!

For those of you looking for a solution for subtitles being converted with garbage (case of brazilian subs). You should first save the .srt in UTF-8 (through notepad) and then use iPodME.
Noda, keep up the good job. Great app. Just an observation, maybe the UTF-8 conversion isn’t working properly? Just a thought. Best regards!

Program does a great job creating quality video with small file size. The program does a poor job of converting wmv files however. Many wmv files, that convert fine with other freeware programs, either will not convert at all, or turn out with video corruption. Also some files, especially real media files, convert to an unwatchable 12 frames per second when choosing the slow, size option. Hopefully future versions of ipodme will work better.

GREAT PROGRAM!
Here’s how I convert DVD’s to the MP4 for my Ipod Classic 80gb:
Use:
[] DVDSHRINK to rip DVD…
Join the ‘VOB’ files into a new file, rename it to filename.MPG using
[] Simple File Joiner (Freeware) program…
[] Use IpodME to convert to .MP4 file
[] Use (Freeware) SharePod http://www.getsharepod.com
to add files to Ipod…
A Winning Combination

Is it possible to be able to increase the resolution cause i know that the ipod can play a higher resolution, higher than 640×480, i know cause i’ve seen some videos from the itunes store (850×480), and with videora i can convert videos up to 720×406 and be able to watch it in the ipod. Can you upgrade the “Max size”??

Great program, the only one that worked satisfactorily for me so far. Tried FormatFactory and Xmedia Recode, but my iPod Classic wouldn’t sync the converted files and the files were quite big most of the time. This one works great. All my AVI files converted just fine and were surprisingly small for their quality ((I use “slow, size”). Don’t know why, as the other programs are supposed to use ffmpeg, too. Whatever. I just gave a small donation because this program made my day!
Keep up the good work!

Noda | September 2, 2009 at 8:21 am
Yes, a 64b version of ffmpeg would be needed to exploit the 64b features, but for now it would be pointless and could even result in a performance loss. 64b usage does not provide magical performance boost, it allows addressing more memory but needs more bandwidth and requires more memory to run.

1skeptikal1 | September 3, 2009 at 3:44 pm
I had the same problem a while ago and I was able to fix it by following some steps i found on itunes…
You have the files in itunes, but not you have to convert to an “ipod” format and it will make a much smaller file.
in itunes, highlight your movie, click on Advanced (menu on top), then select, “Create Ipod or Iphone version”.
Hope that helps.

ccc124 | September 5, 2009 at 5:19 pm

That’s why I thought the problem was on my end.

can i give a suggestion? it would be really nice if you put an option in the program like “burn subtitle to video”, as was removed in version 2.0, so that people like me that don’t have an ipod compatible with soft subtitles can see videos with subtitles. your program is perfect, great job!

You can eliminate the “SBR not implemented” messages
by specifying “-acodec ???” _TWO_ times on the command
line, once prior to your “-i ???” comand and once after.
For example to convert a ‘.flv’ file to a ‘.swf’ file you MUST
use a command that contains these elements (for most,
but not all ‘.flv’ files):
$ ffmpeg -acodec libfaad -i input.flv -acodec libmp3lame output.swf
That forces “faad” to decode (instead of the internal default) and uses “lame” to encode (the only supported and enabled encoder).
This is useful for YouTube ‘.flv’ videos that are encoded
in this manner:
…
Stream #0.0: Video: h264, yuv420p, 320×240, 30 tbr, 1k tbn, 30 tbc

Before I start off I just want to say THANK YOU SO MUCH NODA iPodME is AWESOME!
Now we’ve got that out off the way, I’d like to inform you off a problem I’ve been getting when trying to add .srt subtitles to a movie. Because all you need to do is add a .srt file with exactly the same name as the movie, right? Like for instance, when I went to convert the movie 300 I just added the 300.avi and the 300.srt with my Dutch subtitles, and that’s the right way to do it right? Or maybe I’m wrong, do I need enable settings on my iPod (Touch 3G 32GB), or on the converter itself?
If anybody would even be kindly enough to consider helping me out, I’d be EXTREMELY (yes, in caps lock) happy. I’ll be checking back this page on a regular basis, so your efforts won’t go to waste.
Oh and Noda, if you need ANY information about what settings and what not I have used, you’re more then welcome to send me an email, and I will reply to it as soon as possible.
Thanks in advance, and thanks again for this awesome little piece of programming.

i went through the same trouble
in my case, adding a language code before extention

I can read subtitles on my iPod classic this way.
But still, i can’t make subtiltles show on my nano…hahaha
