H264 Single Bitrate 1080p Audio 5.1

Media Encoder Standard defines a set of encoding presets you can use when creating encoding jobs. You can either use a preset name to specify into which format you would like to encode your media file. Or, you can create your own JSON or XML-based presets (using UTF-8 or UTF-16 encoding. You would then pass the custom preset to the encoder. For the list of all the preset names supported by this Media Encoder Standard encoder, see Task Presets for Media Encoder Standard.

This topic shows the H264 Single Bitrate 1080p Audio 5.1 preset in XML and JSON format..
