I've been searching without much luck for a decent - i.e. equally configurable to something like Handbrake - video converter which is GPU enabled. The ones on the market that I've used - Avivo, Mediashow, Cyberlink - all provide a pitiful list of preconfigured video settings which don't work on nonstandard devices. Any ideas where I could look?

Thanks
 
Unfortunately none of them come close to the power and quality of x.264, and it is very difficult, if not impossible to port such a complex program into a GPGPU encoder.
 
I use Avivo (ATi) with another "extension" for it which gives me alo more options/control. Will get the name for you when I get home.

Its actually a seperate program, couple megs.
 
There is only one that I know of Mediacoder.
It is an opensource/free project that can convert between any format.
I don't think it handles on the fly though but for everything else is brilliant.
The new version has GPU/cuda support
 
Nvidia's Badaboom was the only properly configurable option available a year ago when I was looking for something similar...
Had issues with mediacoder before, but will check out the new version!
 
I checked out Badaboom and Avivo. Badaboom was OK, with some options, and it was very fast. If you're a serious encoder though nothing beats Handbrake.

* nVidia CUDA technology accelerated H.264 encoding
* Supporting parallelized transcoding tasks
* Decoding most popular video formats
* Encoding for iPhone, iPod, iPad, PSP, Mobile Phones and more soon
* User friendly interface
* Watch-folder feature for automated transcoding

Have used the Iphone transcoding and is pretty damn awesome

I need a stream encoder though. If someone has this A's link it would do the trick.
 
Turns out AVC is a really nice little app. It's pretty slow but I'm sticking with it :D
