by Shivaranjan on May 27, 2009

ADVERTISEMENTS

If you want to change the parameters like aspect ratio of MPEG4 (mp4) then you have to open it an video editor and do the changes and then re-encode the entire video. The video encoding is a CPU intensive task and takes lot of time to complete so if these parameters can be changed without re-encoding then we can save lot of time.

MPEG4 Modifier is free tool that allows you change the parameters like aspect ratio (16:9 to 4:3 & vice versa, pixel aspect ratio and display aspect ratio), video codec in use and interlacing settings without the need for encoding the entire video file again.

Product is mislabeled. It’s an AVI modifier. Will not recognize MP4 files.
