Transcoding

Overview

Transcoding is a new Amarok feature embedded in the 2.4beta1 release. It allows encoding media files to various formats while copying them to your collection. As a word of warning you should be careful when you use this feature as you are working with actual files on your hard drive so a backup is a good idea.

Interface

You can access this feature while you copy files to your collection folder by right clicking a media file then Copy to Collection - Local Collection.

Or you can encode media files directly on your hard drive by selecting Transcode here.
