Telestream Episode Pro 6.0 and later is a multi-purpose transcoder capable of making constant mux rate Transport Stream, as well as running on Windows and Mac OS X. Its a fast transcoder that includes many features, including the ability to preserve or transcode some forms of Closed Captioning between the source file and the destination.

Telestream's Episode 6 software answers this problem and these varied encoding needs. FEATURES Episode 6 is a multiformat media encoder for navigating between different formats. It can input video from almost any format, manipulate and transcode it, and then output the video to any number of distribution formats. Telestream Closed Captioning: MacCaption and CaptionMaker allow you to easily author, edit, create subtitles, and encode and repurpose video captions for television, web and mobile delivery.

Episode Pro includes presets that are similar to the CableLabs® VOD standards for SD and HD, under the Transport Stream folder of built-in presets. These are a good starting point, however, a few small changes will make them even more versatile. Below are two recommended parts of the included presets to change, so that you can see how some of the features in Episode Pro work.

Episode does have a few limitations you should be aware of:

• Episode 6.x cannot transcode LPCM audio when it is multiplexed in a Program or Transport stream. We recommend Womble MPEG Wizard if you work with many DVDs and need to work with LPCM audio – you can use Womble and Episode 6.x together, using Womble to transcode LPCM audio and read from DVD discs directly and Episode for other transcoding tasks.
• Episode 6.x cannot transcode VC-1 video.
• Episode 6.x cannot read VIDEO_TS folders, on DVD disc or on hard drives, as a single video object (see the first bullet above for a workaround using Womble MPEG Wizard.
• Episode 6.5 cannot transcode h.264 exports from Final Cut Pro. This is a known issue by Telestream.

What To Change in the VOD MPEG2 NTSC 3750kbit Or Other Presets

Basically, you may want to change two parts of the built-in preset:

• Use AC-3 Audio (if you also purchased the AC-3 audio add-on for Episode) instead of MPEG-1 Layer II
• Change the Resize filter to handle incoming content that may be 16:9, that you want to letterbox to 4:3

Changing the Audio Encoder

In the Encoder editor, click on Audio Encoder in the Format section to reveal the options for the audio encoder and to change the drop-down box of options. The preset will default to MPEG-1 Layer II but if you purchased and installed the Pro Audio add-on for Episode Pro, you can select AC-3 (A/52). Alienware windows 10 drivers. Select AC-3 from the drop down, and with Audio Encoder selected, change the bit rate from 256 Kbps to 192 Kbps.

Changing the Resize Filter

In its default settings, the Resize filter attached to the preset will handle source content that is 4:3, and output 4:3 in the 528 x 480 three quarters resolution used by the CableLabs® VOD SD specification. However, if your source content is 16:9 and you want Episode Pro to letterbox, then scale the resultant 4:3 image, you need to make two small changes. To edit the settings of the Resize filter, click on it in the list of filters under the Video section.

1. Change the Maintain Proportion With option to Letterbox (pad) instead of None (distort)
2. Change the Output Display Aspect Ratio option to 4:3 from Automatic
