Hybrid is a multiplatform (Linux, macOS, Windows) interface for various conversion tools. It can convert almost any input to x264, x265, Xvid, and VP9. Also, ac3, ogg, mp3, aac, and flac inside an mp4, m2ts, mkv, webm, mov, avi, Blu-ray, or AVCHD container.
Several video processing tools are bundled into a single package by Hybrid. It allows you to convert various file types to numerous multimedia formats. In addition, it can do tagging and muxing procedures and automate routine chores.
One of the primary benefits of Hybrid is the variety of supported formats. It supports VC-1 and AVC raw input and any other file formats that mplayer and ffmpeg can decode—output support for x264, Xvid, VP8, x265 and ProRes.
The embedded video encoder offers a variety of encoding options, each with distinct characteristics like bitrate and constant rate factors. It is also compatible with multiple container formats, including Blu-ray discs and AVCHD. Additionally, the encoder features audio extraction capabilities, allowing you to create audio files in formats such as MP3, OGG, AAC, FLAC, AC3, DTS, and others.

Advanced users have more setting possibilities with a hybrid. The encoding, bitrate, tuning, and entropy coding modes may be modified. Also, you may resize photographs, adjust their aspect ratio, and crop them manually. Instead, you may use the ‘auto crop’ tool to have the program conduct this task for you.
In addition, it supports filtering, allowing you to improve the quality of your multimedia files before to encoding. Deinterlacing, telecine, color adjustment, sharpening, denoising, horizontal and vertical deblocking, temporal noise reduction, and many more choices are available.
The program can process subtitles and tag video, audio, and subtitle streams. The integrated chapter editor may aid with renaming chapters and modifying the video’s structure. Hybrid has a work scheduling area that allows you to automate numerous jobs for your convenience.
