MP4 & QuickTime Writer


DirectShow filter for multiplexing and writing .mp4 and .mov files.

Overview


MPEG-4 Writer is a DirectShow filter for multiplexing and writing .mp4 and .mov files. It multiplexes the input streams and writes them to MPEG-4/MOV files.

The filter performs the function of both the multiplexer and the file writer and must be the last filter in the graph.

Features

  • Support for video streams compressed in major formats (MPEG-2, H264 and HEVC) using QuickSync Encoder
  • Adjustable interleaving time for input streams
  • Selecting the mode of writing timecodes (only after breaks or all time codes)
  • Selecting the drop/non-drop mode to process 29.97 and 59.94 timecodes.
  • Selecting the mode for writing separate .mdat and metadata files. These files can be merged into one correct MPEG-4 file using "copy /b a.mp4+a.mp4.mdat b.mp4".
  • Allows the shared access to the current writing file. This is a special feature for cutting and writing the selected part of the current file to another file "on fly".
Specifications and description of user interfaces can be found in the .idl file in the \Idl folder of the filter installation directory.
