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
- 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".
