Note: This setting encodes only a video file. Dolby Digital is the
recommended audio setting. For more information, see

You can also create custom settings that use the MPEG-2
transcoding format.
The properties of built-in and custom settings that use this
transcoding format are located in the General, Video, and Audio
inspectors. These properties are described below.
Important: When you add a setting (or a destination that includes
settings) to a job, Compressor analyzes the source media and
then automatically assigns the most appropriate setting properties
(based on the setting’s transcoding format and the characteristics
of your source media file). It’s recommended that you use the
automatically assigned setting properties.
