Avanti introduction
  
Avanti is not just a encoder front-end that uses FFmpeg in the background as encoding engine for a predefined (limited) number of formats. It's a dedicated "workbench" for FFmpeg/Avisynth that keeps all their capabilities as open as possible.

Avanti offers two levels of usage;

At the first level you simply load a predefined template, possibly adapt the common settings a bit and start the process.

At the second level, you can include advanced operations like color correction or frame rate conversion. You can freely tweak the command line or let Avanti insert your own dedicated Avisynth scripts directly from the built-in script editor.

Every setup you make, inclusive your own "virtual" scripts, can be saved in templates.

Avanti GUI supports context sensitive help. When you press <F1> on open windows, selected pages and option boxes or fields, you'll be (often) directed to the relevant sections of the Avanti chm help.

Avanti uses a powerful concept that offers separate input and output of audio/video streams, user Avisynth routing and input/output stream mapping.

Avanti offers a lot of user supporting features and utilities like linking of user selectable post-processing tools, a advanced frame size calculator, bitrate calculator, VirtualDub edit list to Avisynth trim conversion, Avisynth plugin manager and many more.
