Video Quality: Higher video quality means a larger file size and lower conversion speed. so you need to balance the tradeoff between file size and quality.

 

Audio Codec: Choose audio encoder.

 

Audio Quality: Higher audio quality means a larger file size and lower conversion speed. so you need to balance the tradeoff between file size and quality.

 

Resolution: Set the output video resolution (widht and height).

 

Frame Rate: Set the output video frame rate.

 

Defines how many pictures eg. frames one second of video or audio contains, normally used acronym for framerate is fps - frames per second. Human eye can't see picture changes after the framerate is more than ~24fps.
In American TV system NTSC the framerate is appx. 29.97fps and in European PAL system the framerate is 25fps.

 

Aspect Ratio: The ratio between the width of the picture and the height of the picture. Normal TV's aspect ratio is 4:3 (1.33:1), HDTV's aspect ratio is 16:9 (1.85:1)

Sample Rate: Set the output audio sample rate, it will impact the output file size.

 

In developing an audio sound for computers or telecommunication, the sample rate is the number of samples of a sound that are taken per second to represent the event digitally.
The more samples taken per second, the more accurate the digital representation of the sound can be. For example, the current sample rate for CD-quality audio is 44,100 samples per second. This sample rate can accurately reproduce the audio frequencies up to 20,500 hertz, covering the full range of human hearing.

 

Add Letterbox to keep aspect: If you want to keep the original video aspect ratio, check it, otherwise uncheck it.

 

Movies, for instance, are almost always made in widescreen format. A widescreen movie needs to be displayed on a screen with different aspect ratio from the original film, the picture frame needs to be letterboxed.

 

Letterboxing means adding black borders above and below the original frame.

 

Ok, we have done.
