Target Options
Most targets contain these options and they all have the same meanings. Some options
may not appear in certain targets, may be in different locations or may only appear under
certain circumstances. Certain settings may be disabled when using target presets.
Common Target Options
Target File Splitting (Advanced)
Choose Splitting Method
Selects the automatic file-splitting method. Automatic file-splitting can divide output
files into separate files for easier archiving or transport. File-splitting is not related to
multiplexing. File-splitting cannot be used with multi-pass encoding. Not all formats
support file splitting or all options available for file splitting.
No Splitting Do not automatically split output files.
Split using Time Interval Start a new output file when the current output’s video length
reaches the specified maximum time.
Split using max. Size Start a new output file when the current output’s file size reaches
the specified maximum size.
Interval Time for Splitting (Minutes)
Sets the time interval to split output files at in minutes. For example, if the interval
time is set to 10 minutes, a 35-minute source will be split into 4 output files.
Max. File Size for Splitting (MB)
Sets the size to split output files at in megabytes. For example, if the max file size is
set to 650 MB and the total output size is 1.5 GB, there will be 3 output files.
Quality/Size
Click the ... button to bring up the Quality/Size Configuration window. The Quality/
Size Configuration window displays the media requirements for your conversion
parameters and can set the bitrate to an appropriate value based on the number of
media you want to output.
For example, if your target media is a single CD-R (650MB) and your current setting
will output 800 MB, the Number of media will be 2. You can then adjust the Quality
slider until the Number of media reads 1. Alternatively, you can enable the Fill Media
if possible option, then set the number of media to 1. ProCoder will automatically
calculate an appropriate bitrate to fit within the media requirements, if possible.
This option is only available under the following circumstances:
