Transcoding assets from the Project window


    You can assign transcode settings and transcode assets directly from the Project window. Upon transcoding a file, Adobe Encore DVD updates the project link so that it now points to the transcoded file. So, unless you delete the original file, you can also revert transcoded assets to their original version.

To assign a transcode setting to an asset:

  1. Right-click the asset you want to transcode.
  2. Choose Transcode Settings and then choose a transcode preset from the list. See Working with presets.

To transcode an asset:

  1. Right-click the asset you want to transcode.
  2. Choose Transcode Now. The asset is transcoded and the Transcode Settings column displays Transcoded. The transcoded asset is now used for authoring, previewing, and building.

To revert a transcoded asset to the original asset:

  1. Right-click the asset you want to replace.
  2. Choose Revert to Original.
