A8: What is Windows Media Format?
Windows Media Format is a proprietary format designed primarily for streaming audio, video and text from Internet servers to client computers. A Windows Media file can also be stored and played locally. Each Windows Media file contains one or more media streams that together form a multimedia presentation. Stream delivery is synchronized to a common timeline.

A9:What is VBR?
Variable bit rate (VBR) encoding is an alternative to constant bit rate encoding and is supported by some codecs. Where CBR encoding strives to maintain the bit rate of the encoded media, VBR strives to achieve the best possible quality of the encoded media.
The quality of encoded content is determined by the amount of data that is lost when the content is compressed and decompressed. Many factors affect the loss of data in the compression process, but in general, the more complex the original data and the higher the compression ratio, the more detail is lost in the compression process.

A10: Can I convert letter box to full-screen?
Yes. You can select different resize mode.
Resize to fit output size: The image is stretched to fit the target frame size in both dimensions, without preserving the aspect ratio.
No resize: The image is not resized. If the image is smaller than the target frame, the surrounding area is black. If the image is larger than the target frame, the image is cropped.
Resize preserving the aspect ratio: The image is resized to fit the target frame along one dimension, while preserving the aspect ratio. If the ratio of width to height in the image does not match the ratio in the target frame, it creates a letterbox.
Resize crop:The image is resized to fill the entire target frame while preserving the aspect ratio. Rather than create a letterbox, this mode crops the image, either along the sides or across the top and bottom.

A11:When I select convert mpeg file, how can I reduce the waiting time?
You can select VBR mode and select smaller quality value, because it will effect the encoding time.
