Understanding File Settings

In this section you will learn how to adjust your output settings and insert additional audio tracks and subtitles into your converted media.
To adjust your file settings, click “View List” after dragging and dropping in the file(s) you want to convert. Highlight the video you want to change file settings for and select “Modify” for additional options.
These options are split into two tabs:
Output Settings
This tab lets you change profiles and file size.
Certification Profile
On the “Output Settings” tab, you can select the profile you want to encode into and change the output size your converted video. You may have already selected the profile after you drag and dropped your file onto DivX Converter.
Limit File size to
This setting determines the file size of your converted video. If you plan to burn your converted DivX video onto a CD for example, choose that option from the drop down list.

Advanced file settings
For Advanced File Output Settings options, click the “Advanced” button. Here you can manually change the resolution and encoding bitrate of your video.

These options give you more control over how your video will be converted. Close the Advanced File Output Settings menu by clicking the “<< Simple” button.

Media Options
Click the “Media Options” tab to include features such as additional audio tracks and subtitles.
Select Audio Tracks
If your source video has more than one audio soundtrack, DivX Converter will give you options to include them in your final converted video. Check the boxes next to the audio tracks you want to include and click “OK.”
Maintain Source Audio
*Option available with AC3 and MP3 audio only, and not available with Mobile/qmobile profiles or with combine of videos. If you want to maintain the source Audio for one particular session, make sure to check that option
Select Subtitle Tracks
If your source video has more than one subtitle track, DivX Converter will give you options to include them in your final converted video. Check the boxes next to the subtitles you want to include and click "OK"

Preferences
Change your DivX Converter preferences by right-clicking anywhere on the face of the application and choosing “Preferences.” In the preferences window, you can change your General Preferences, the location of your DivX Movies folder, and set the temporary folder where files are saved during the conversion process.
Process Preferences
Here you can change the encoding priority level for Converter. This will allow you to set the processing level for encoding in Converter.
Default Audio Preferences
If you would like to enable the "Maintain source audio" as a default (This would preserve the audio track of all inputted files, for all sessions), you would right click Converter and select preferences. From there you would check "Maintain source audio" under the "Default Audio Preferences"
