One of TMPGEnc’s flagship technologies. If your source video is already compliant (e.g., MPEG-2 for DVD or H.264 for Blu-ray at correct bitrates), TAW5 will not re-encode it. It smart-renders only the GOPs around cuts or chapter points. This preserves original quality and speeds up authoring by up to 10x.
