MediaCoder is a front-end / [[GUI]] for a bunch of audio/video command line utilities (including audio decoders/encoders, video decoders/encoders, multiplexers. However, it's more than just generating command lines, launching those CLI and waiting them to terminate. MediaCoder joins decoders output with encoders input with pipes, instead of using temporary files. Some GPLed utilities are patched to gain extra interfaces. |

Difference from other front-ends for decoder/encoder
MediaCoder is a front-end / GUI for a bunch of audio/video command line utilities (including audio decoders/encoders, video decoders/encoders, multiplexers. However, it's more than just generating command lines, launching those CLI and waiting them to terminate. MediaCoder joins decoders output with encoders input with pipes, instead of using temporary files. Some GPLed utilities are patched to gain extra interfaces.
