NAME
     mediaconvert, moviemaster, soundfiler, movieconvert - digital media file
     conversion tool

SYNOPSIS
     mediaconvert [-b] [filename]

DESCRIPTION
     mediaconvert is a graphical tool for converting between different audio,
     image, and movie file formats.  Internally, mediaconvert invokes the
     command-line conversion utility dmconvert(1).

     -b   Causes mediaconvert to print status and debug information.  This
          includes the command-line that is used to invoke dmconvert(1).

     mediaconvert, formerly called moviemaster, replaces the soundfiler and
     movieconvert tools that shipped in previous releases.  It provides a
     superset of the file conversion functionality available from the old
     tools.

     mediaconvert supports a variety of audio, image, and movie file
     conversions including:

         audio file                     --> audio file
         image sequence                 --> image sequence
         image sequence                 --> movie
         movie                          --> movie
         movie                          --> image sequence
         movie                          --> audio file
         audio file + image sequence    --> movie
         audio file + video-only movie  --> movie

     mediaconvert supports the same file formats as dmconvert(1).
