About the MPEG-1 Encoder Pane
This section contains detailed information about the various tabs within the MPEG-1
Encoder pane of the Inspector window. You make your MPEG-1 settings using these
tabs, by either modifying an existing setting or creating a new setting in the Settings
tab of the Presets window.
The MPEG-1 Encoder pane opens with the default Video Format tab on top and
contains the following items:
 Extension: This field displays the MPEG-1 file extension mpg automatically after the
MPEG-1 output format is selected from the File Format pop-up menu, or the ( + )
pop-up menu in the Settings tab of the Presets window. Changes to m1v if the Audio
tab is disabled, or m1a if the Video tab is disabled.
 Allow cluster segmenting: This checkbox allows you to turn off cluster segmenting. It
is relevant only if you are using Compressor 2 or higher with distributed processing
enabled. (The Compressor 2 distributed processing feature is limited to computers
that have either Final Cut Studio or DVD Studio Pro 4 installed.) For more
information, see “
Encoder Pane ” on page 43.
 Video and Audio tabs: These buttons open the Video and Audio tabs described next.
