The MPEG2 I-Frame HD ConverterHow to:
For converting HD files for lag-free usage in Lightworks(Free) on low-end computers
- Drag and drop files to the GUI.
- Set the output directory.
- Hit convert.
- Import in Lightworks by "Create Link"
- And spend your time on the fun stuff - the actual editing.
Downloads:
32-Bit or 64-Bit
(NB. There might be a unicode problem on XP and older OS)
Get the Matrox codecs here.
Motivation:
After spending days trying to figure out to get high quality footage(Canon 60D) into Lightworks without having lagging playback(which all the LW included transcoding formats does and also the much talked about GoPro CineForm codecs) on my ageing computer, I finally tried the Mpeg2 I-Frame HD Matrox codec which Khaver has been mentioning for a long time, and I was really surprised not only did my files convert fast, but they also played without lagging in Lightworks in 1080P resolution. That made me so happy that I spend the night on coding a simple, no fuss(no settings) drag&drop batch converter GUI for ffmbc.exe to convert HD files to the Mpeg2 I-Frame HD format.

Newest version seems to work fine on a test I just ran with XDCam EX input files.
Hope is the trap the world sets for you every night when you go to sleep and the only reason you have to get up in the morning is the hope that this day, things will get better... But they never do, do they?
