Compresor not up to the job – recommendation on a good software encoder
I have a critical work project – long weekend ahead of me…
I have HD content in ProRes 422 HQ.
I need to create a high quality MPEG 2 transport stream. The catch is that it needs to be encoded as cbr versus vbr.
Compressor looks to only support vbr encoding for MPEG 2 with SD, not HD content..
Ideally someone could share a way to get there within Final Cut Studio applications.
Short of that I need to buy an alternative software encoder. Needs to be high quality. Any recommendations on something that will get me to cbr MPEG 2 with ProRes in a QuickTime wrapper as it’s input?
Thanks,
Wayne

Compressor can certainly do CBR encoding in mpeg2
Encoder Tab> Quality> Mode> One Pass CBR
But if quality is your issue that is something else.

My vote for Episode Pro too. I love this software and I like the company.
