Product Overview

TMPGEnc MPEG Editor is a greatly improved version of the widely used MPEG Tool (included in TMPGEnc Plus 2.5). It has been reworked into a full-featured software offering fast and easy cut-editing with high precision MPEG Smart Rendering.

The standard MPEG Tool could only cut on GOPs, which meant rough cut-editing. But with TMPGEnc MPEG Editor and its Smart Rendering function, accurate and precise cut-editing becomes possible. The Smart Rendering technology included in TMPGEnc MPEG Editor consists in re-encoding only the necessary parts of the video, and not the whole video, allowing smooth cut-editing.
Also, like other new Pegasys softwares, TMPGEnc MPEG Tool is compatible with TMPGEnc Sound Plug-in AC3 (for Dolby Digital® 2 ch audio).

■ Supported file formats are: standard MPEG-1 and MPEG-2, DVD-Video files or DVD-VR (.VRO) files recorded with standalone DVD recorder.
