Guys, great work on Encoder. Keep it up! I was wondering what you guys use to display the video in main window. I noticed you can show quicktime, while WPF's MediaElement doesn't (without having to install codecs at least). Is this something you guys built? If so, would you ever consider releasing it, or at least some hints for me on how it works?

Thanks!

Thanks for the comments. Currently the main video window is all custom code we've written and everything is displayed within an HwndHost. The main UI is written in C# using WPF as you can see, but most of the video code is written in a combination of managed C++ and native C++ so we can do all the custom DirectShow code for processing and displaying the video frames that we do. Unfortunately I don't think this is something that we could easily release in isolation.

Which "base" profiles of H.264? Baseline and Main? Extended? High? Which "base" profiles of AAC? Can Expression Encoder batch produce Zune compliant Baseline profile H.264 video which doesn't require transcoding?

I tried using the SDK to encode an audio file to AAC, but it is giving an error saying that the AAC codec can't be used.

Any ideas? (or better yet, sample projects!)

Do you have the full version of Encoder installed. AAC won't work in the trial version.
