Re-Encoding to MP4/MKV h264 [MQ] using MediaCoder 0.6

Requirements:
1. MediaCoder
2. CCCP or KLite MegaCodec Pack
Steps:
First open your video file on Mediacoder and copy the setting on the Audio Tab on the left and Nero Encoder Tab on the right. I find Nero Encoder has a better quality than LAME and FAAC with a bitrate of 40kbps or Quality of 25(100Kbps).
If you are using Megui, you can also use it to encode your audio using Nero Encoder codec.
Then on the Video Tab, you choose Three Pass because I find it gives the better quality and the quality loss is very small. Use around 268-278 Bitrate.
As I've said in the other version of this tutorial, you can also use Quality Pass of around 40-50 quality. This one is much more recommended but if you want to rush your encode, then go to Quality Pass, however, I cannot guarantee a small lost in quality, not unless you chose 50+.
That would produced an output of 70+mb file which is quite bigger if you ask me because we can make it 55mb or less if you chose Three Pass.
Select the container and video codec you like to use.
On the Picture Tab, it's actually optional but I always want to use 23.976fps for the framerate of if there isn't any in the option, choose 24000/1001. They are just the same I think.
Now if you look on the left side, the estimated filesize on the Summary is 63MB but it depends on the capacity of you computer.
Now the problem I find here, if you encode a file which source is a MKV, the audio is sometimes out of synch.
For that use MKVMerge and open you encoded video file. Make sure the audio track is highlighted then on Format Specific Options tab, select the delay like for example you audio is 1 sec behind the video, the delay is -1000ms.
Another alternative is to encode them separately by first using MKV Extract.
When you opened your video file on MKVExtract, you'll see the tracks in that video. Tick the checkbox on Audio, Video, and Subtitle and then click Extract. This will demux all the tracks ticked.
You can see above the .H264 which is the video, the .ogg which is the audio and the subtitle file assuming your file has a softsubtitle.
Open them except the subtitle one by one on Mediacoder using the settings I provided above. After they are encoded you'd have to combine them using MKVMerge.
Open all the tracks on MKVMerge, set the output file on the File Menu then on Muxing Menu select Start Muxing.
That's all it is about.
If you want to check out how the quality will be on the output file, here's a sample:
2MinQualityCheck-002HQ-002.mkv [14MB]
2MinQualityCheck-002Encoded-002.mkv [4MB]
Whole Video File:
From 232MB to 57.6MB
Kimikiss Pure Rouge Special Love Fighter.mkv
Note:
After trying it out for many times, I figured this one is better than the previous procedures I posted but if you still want to try that one, here's the txt file with the screenshots included:
