MPEG-1 Encoder pane
This section contains detailed information about the various tabs within the MPEG-1 Encoder
pane of the Inspector window. You make your MPEG-1 settings using these tabs, by either
modifying an existing setting or creating a new setting in the Settings tab.
The MPEG-1 Encoder pane opens with the Video tab on top and contains the following items.
Basic settings
•
Extension: This field displays the MPEG-1 file extension (.mpg) automatically after the MPEG-1
output format is chosen from the File Format pop-up menu or the Create a New Setting (+)
pop-up menu in the Settings tab. The extension changes to the video-only extension (.m1v) if
the Audio tab is disabled or the audio-only extension (.m1a) if the Video tab is disabled.
•
Allow Job Segmenting: This checkbox allows you to turn off job segmenting. It’s relevant only if
you’re using Compressor with distributed processing and with multi-pass encoding. For more
information, see
Job segmenting and two-pass or multi-pass encoding on page 249.

Video and Audio: These buttons open the Video and Audio tabs, described next.
