Audio Resampling

Resample prior to encode

When this check box is selected, the audio component of your media file will be resampled using Sonic Foundry’s algorithms. Resample before encoding if your source material uses nonstandard sample rates or if you want to use a specific sample rate in your encoded audio.

Resample rate

Click the down arrow to the right of the Resample rate drop-down list and select a new sampling rate. The resample rate should match the codec format specified on the Audio and Video Codec page to reduce the possibility that the codec will resample your audio again.

High sampling rates produce high-quality audio, but can result in stuttering audio with low-speed Internet connections. When the check box is cleared, codecs resample audio using default resampling algorithms.
