All confguration files are in plain text format. Each configuration file has different structure. Edit the files and check the sources to find out more about how this files are created. Each configuration file is automaticaly loaded/saved by program every time the program is started/closed.
- Program configuration is stored in
EncWAVtoAC3.configfile. - Presets for encoder are stored in
EncWAVtoAC3.presetsfile. - Paths to libaften.dll engines are stored in
EncWAVtoAC3.enginesfile. - User interface trasnlation files are located in Lang sub-directory.
- Translation files must be saved with
Unicodecharset andBOM header.
To run 64-bit version you need to install avisynth64:
Additional help and informations is available here:
Running avisynth requires properly setup Input Options (e.g. override wave header settings).
You can double-click in the file list on avisynth script to get e.g. number of audio channels.
Please first check the *.log file in program directory for more information.
