The Standard Mpeg Encoder is an open source GPL DirectShow filter for encoding video to MPEG-1, MPEG-2 and MPEG-4.

The encoder is a wrapper for ffmpeg and allows the usage of any ffmpeg supported format in windows applications. It's dual-licensed GPL code, meaning if your software is GPL, you can use it for free. If you software is commercial, you can purchase a commercial license.

• DirectShow filter that can be used from Visual C++, Visual Basic, .NET etc.
