VidCoder 12.10 Final
VidCoder is a piece of software for converting video files and ripping DVDs and Blu-ray discs.
It uses the HandBrake library to perform the actual transcoding, but provides a user-friendly interface that makes it easier to use HandBrake's features.
You don’t need to install HandBrake in order to use VidCoder.
The first advantage offered by this application is the intuitive, simple interface which allows you to choose between the drag and drop option and the browse button for adding files.
Further easiness of use is ensured by the batch processing functionality; you can encode multiple video files at the same time.
Some of the Features of VidCoder include:
- Support for ripping DVDs and Blu-ray discs
- Ability to convert video files to a variety of formats and codecs
- Support for batch processing, allowing users to convert multiple files at once
- Ability to preview and adjust video and audio settings before converting
- Support for customizing the output file name and directory structure
- Option to automatically shut down the computer when the conversion is finished
- Support for multiple languages, including English, French, German, and many others.
Advanced users have the possibility of setting video parameters as they wish (video codec, framerate, quality etc.)
The only limitations of VidCoder is not being able to break down CSS, AACS or BD+ Blu-ray encryption found on commercial discs, which means you will have to use software which removes encryption.
The latest releases of VidCoder come with significant updates:
- First v12 stable release.
- Added a Hardware tab to Global Settings: this shows all available hardware and the codecs they can encode to.
- Added the ability to configure hardware decoding for Media Foundation.
- Moved QSV hardware decoding settings to the Hardware tab, added the ability to configure use for non-QSV codecs.

- Added requirement for encoder to be NVEnc to use NVDec
- Added code to avoid clobbering a chosen hardware decoding setting.
- Implemented QSV hyperencode.

- Changed to close the source video when deleting the source file, rather than stopping the source deletion from happening.

- Fixed default/burn in selection for automatically added external subtitle files.
- Updated HandBrake for 1.10.2
- See full list of changes here.
