    I'm a complete newbie, and although I've searched the forum(s) I can't seem to find the answer to how a convert program (No1 Video Converter/TMPGEnc or any other) knows which codec to use - assuming there are several installed. Is there a way a particular codec can be 'hand picked' ?

    not really for decoding ..

    they are picked by their header or 4CC info

    Thank you BJ_M - but if there are several codecs installed, is there an order of preference or is the first one used?
