Features
MediaCoder is a front-end/GUI for a collection of audio/video command line utilities (including audio/video codecs and multiplexers). MediaCoder pipes the decoder's output into the encoder's input, rather than using temporary files. This allows it to convert large amounts of data without using excessive disk space. Some of the included utilities are also patched to add extra interfaces.
