There must be ways of fiddling around these problems, if you have clues let it know.īut hell do I hate converting, transcoding and outputting stuff with all of it's trial and error.Ī killer app would be welcome, maybe just a PRO CODER UPDATE! (with fully documented and tested work-flows available.) On an other note, I haven't tried apple's FCP studio 3's compressor, but studio 2's version was painful to use in my opinion (to much strange magic.).As before, there are also buttons for the creation of watch folders and queues. I also get random problems like audio sync problems when converting 23.976 stuff. I've tried different settings without much succes. To 1.5 file per core as suggested) seems to crash the thing all the time on long Support, but using all of my 8 cores (and setting the number of files processed I was happy to learn that squeeze 5 added comprehensive multiple cores Use non stop (i7 2.66), hurra! (seriously) When using the cue manager, it uses all of the processors cores and power 99-100% cpu Procoder UI seems is unstable (might just be me.) until you actually launch conversions, I always have problems when using sorenson*. If anyone wants a test done, I can probably do it towards the end of next week. For these parameters I usually prefer the Mainconcept CODEC in Squeeze 5.n set to multipass VBR for best quality. The vast majoity of my workproduct is SD captured at DV25 & encoded for web delivery as H.264 (either streaming or progressive download).

I have at least tested just about every sub $1000 prosumer/professional encoding software available. On a side note, I recently tried several other encoders, including TMPEGEnc, and found Squeeze 6 to offer a lot more power and features.Īs has been previously written, different tools for different jobs. Squeeze version 6 has become a really powerful encoder with a lot of features, and I would now definitely recommend it over Procoder. The bottom line is that in my opinion, Procoder no longer really competes in this area, and it appears that Canopus has no plans on releasing a new version of it. On that note, version 6 now comes with the VP6 plugin built in, which is a really nice feature. I found that Squeeze 6 has one of the better deinterlacing filters in it's price range, and it allows a LOT of adjustments for both h.264 and On2 VP6 encoding. There are still some quirks that are annoying, like a gamma shift when using the MainConcept h.264 encoder in Squeeze, but you can adjust for this sort of thing. Squeeze, on the other hand has really taken some great steps forward, particularly (in my opinion) with version 6. Unfortunately, as others pointed out, ProCoder hasn't been updated in a while - the last update was in 2008 - and it has definitely fallen WAY behind at this point, particularly when it comes to both flash and h.264, which are arguably two of the most important parts of encoding software these days. Squeeze, I always USED to prefer ProCoder 3 to Squeeze.
#Canopus procoder 3 update
I'm not sure it's logical to compare Carbon Coder to Squeeze since CC is $6000, as opposed to $700 for a new purchase of Squeeze, or a lot less of an upgrade purchase (I believe it's still only $200 to update to Squeeze 6 from version 5, which comes with Avid.) At 30 times the cost (if you already have Squeeze version 5), Carbon Coder had better be a LOT better than Squeeze. To be fair you should really consider Carbon Coder for this comparison, which is the latest version of Procoder, better than Procoder 3.
