MP4 and M4V Video
ASP.NET Media Handler Pro can be use to encode any format video to mp4, m4v and m4a audio formats in order to play on variety of hardwares including ipod, iphone, web, desktop computers, playstation, xbox 360 and others.
View detail about encoding videos to mp4, m4v and m4a format below with examples both in c# and vb.net.
All examples shown below is related with ASP.NET Media Handler Pro 3.0 or later. For more information contact us.
Sample Code: Encode video to mp4 format
Using Encode_MP4() function
// Sample code for encoding any format video to mp4 format.
MediaHandler _mhandler = new MediaHandler();
// required properties
string RootPath = Server.MapPath(Request.ApplicationPath);
_mhandler.FFMPEGPath = HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath("~\\ffmpeg\\ffmpeg.exe");

_mhandler.OutputPath = RootPath + "\\contents\\mp4";
_mhandler.FileName = "sample.mpg";
// optional output filename
_mhandler.OutputFileName = "sample.mp4";
// setting video related properties, required in case of mp4 video otherwise may result in failure of video encoding.
_mhandler.FrameRate = 29.97;
_mhandler.Video_Bitrate = 786;
_mhandler.Audio_Bitrate = 64;
_mhandler.Audio_SamplingRate = 24000;
// generate highest quality mp4 video, note by making this option true, video bitrate will no longer work.
_mhandler.MaxQuality = true;
// optional video width and height settings
_mhandler.Width = 320;
_mhandler.Height = 240;
// optional video and audio codec settings, make sure it is compatible with mp4 video otherwise result in failure of video encoding.
