Pro Media Transcoder

A professional broadcast, mezzanine, and delivery video transcoder for Linux editors.
A lightweight Linux alternative to Shutter Encoder for post-production transcoding and broadcast preparation.

Key features powered by bundled FFmpeg:
- Editing & mezzanine codecs: Apple ProRes 422 (LT, Standard, HQ 10-bit 4:2:2) and Avid DNxHR (LB Proxy, SQ, HQ)
alongside delivery masters in H.264 (MP4), H.265/HEVC (MKV), and VP9 (WebM).
- Timecode and studio review watermark burn-in overlays with configurable scaling presets.
- Lossless cut and container rewrapping (-c copy to MOV, MKV, MP4, MPEG-TS) without re-encoding video streams.
- Still image sequence extractor exporting PNG, JPEG, or TIFF frames at custom frame rates.
- Broadcast EBU R128 loudness analyzer (Integrated LUFS, LRA, True Peak) and audio loudness normalizer
(-23 LUFS Broadcast, -16 LUFS Podcast, -14 LUFS Streaming).
