-====== Main window – GTK+ version ====== 
- 
-This article describes the main window in the GTK+ graphical user interface, which may be preferred by Linux or BSD users using the GNOME, Xfce or LXDE desktop environments. Microsoft(nbsp)Windows users should see the [[Main window - Qt version|Qt version]], which is the default GUI for the official Microsoft Windows builds of Avidemux. 
- 
-===== Main toolbar ===== 
- 
-{{using:​toolbar-gtk.png}} 
- 
-The main toolbar allows easy access to the commonly used actions:

-{{using:​file_properties-gtk.png}} Display file information (audio/​video format, resolution etc.) 
- 
-{{using:​button_calculator-GTK.png}} Open a bitrate/​filesize calculator(nbsp)(ndash) it calculates the video size for 2-pass encoding (because only video size, without audio, is required in the 2-pass encoder settings), clicking the Apply button sets the 2-pass video size for the selected encoder 
- 
-{{using:​preview-GTK.png}} Preview mode: 
- 
-  * **Input**(nbsp)(ndash) display input (unfiltered) video in the main window 
-  * **Output**(nbsp)(ndash) display filtered output in the main window

-  * **Separate**(nbsp)(ndash) display input in the main window and output in a separate window 
- 
-{{using:​volume-gtk.png}} Volume control 
- 
-===== Navigation bar ===== 
- 
-{{using:​navigation_bar-gtk.png}} 
- 
-The navigation bar is used for navigation, using the navigation slider on the left and the buttons, playback, selecting parts of the file (cutting) and time information. 
- 
-==== Navigation ==== 
- 
-{{using:​play-gtk.png}} Start playback 
- 
-{{using:​stop-gtk.png}} Stop playback 
- 
-{{using:​previous_frame-gtk.png}} Go to previous frame 
- 
-{{using:​next_frame-gtk.png}} Go to next frame 
- 
-{{using:​previous_keyframe-gtk.png}} Go to previous intra frame (keyframe) 
- 
-{{using:​next_keyframe-gtk.png}} Go to next keyframe 
- 
-{{using:​previous_black_frame-gtk.png}} Go to previous black frame(nbsp)(ndash) searching for black frames may take some time and may not be 100% accurate 
- 
-{{using:​next_black_frame-gtk.png}} Go to next black frame 
- 
-{{using:​first_frame-gtk.png}} Go to the first frame (beginning) 
- 
-{{using:​last_frame-gtk.png}} Go to the last frame (end) 
- 
-{{using:​jogshuttle-gtk.png}} Jog/​shuttle,​ fast-forward or rewind by turning the wheel, speed depends on how far it is turned; keyframe based navigation 
- 
-==== Selection ==== 
- 
-You can either cut or save a selected part of the video. 
- 
-{{using:​marka-gtk.png}} Set mark A (selection start) to the current frame 
- 
-{{using:​markb-gtk.png}} Set mark B (selection end) to the current frame 
- 
-{{using:​markera-gtk.png}} Shows the position of mark A, the selection start 
- 
-{{using:​markerb-gtk.png}} Shows the position of mark B, the selection end 
- 
-{{using:​selection-gtk.png}} This frame shows the corresponding frame numbers for A and B marks (unless you set A or B marks, the whole video is selected), pressing the "​A:"​ or "​B:"​ button means "go to mark A" or "go to mark B" 
- 
-==== Information ==== 
- 
-{{using:​frame-gtk.png}} Displays current frame and total number of frames(nbsp)(ndash) when you enter a frame number into the current frame text box and press Enter, Avidemux will go to that frame 
- 
-{{using:​time-gtk.png}} Displays current time and total time 
- 
-{{using:​frame_type-gtk.png}} Type of the current frame (I-frame, P-frame or B-frame), the number between brackets shows the quantizer used to encode the displayed image (meaningful only when used with a quantizer type codec like the MPEG codecs) 
- 
-===== Audio/video sidebar ===== 
- 
-The toolbar on the left can be used for setting audio and video encoders, filters and the output format. 
- 
-Audio and video encoders are listed in a "​format (encoder)"​ form, where format is the specification,​ standard, while encoder is the particular software library, implementation,​ that encodes the stream to the chosen format. For example, "​MPEG-4(nbsp)ASP(nbsp)(Xvid4)"​ means the output video format is set to MPEG-4(nbsp)ASP and the chosen software library used for encoding the MPEG-4(nbsp)ASP video is Xvid. "MP3 (LAME)"​ means the output audio format is set to MP3 and LAME is the MP3 encoder. 
- 
-The "​Format"​ menu is mainly used for setting the output container. A container contains audio and video streams multiplexed into a single file. It is important to select a suitable container format for the audio and video stream types selected in the Audio and Video menus. For example, MPEG-2 (DVD, SVCD) or MPEG-1 (VCD) video should not be saved into an AVI container. Some popular A/V format/​container combinations include: 
- 
-  *video: MPEG-1, audio: MP2, container: MPEG-PS (suitable for a VCD, universally playable on most computers and operating systems including Microsoft Windows, without installing additional codecs) 
-  *video: MPEG-2, audio: MP2/AC3, container: MPEG-PS (suitable for DVDs) 
-  *video: MPEG-4 ASP, audio: MP3, container: AVI (a very popular format, playable on standalone "DivX compatible"​ players, in software players like MPlayer, VLC or xine and in Windows-based players if an MPEG-4(nbsp)ASP decoder such as DivX, Xvid or ffdshow is installed) 
-  *video: H.264 (MPEG-4 AVC), audio: AAC, container: MP4 (the MPEG-4 standard) 
-  *video: H.264 (MPEG-4 AVC), audio: Vorbis, container: Matroska (an efficient free software choice for playback on computers, players like MPlayer or VLC can play the files out-of-the-box,​ for playback in Windows Media Player, an H.264 decoder such as ffdshow and a Matroska splitter such as Haali Media Splitter is needed) 
- 
-{{using:​sidebar-video-gtk.png}} The default video encoder is "​Copy",​ which means no video encoding, video from the input will be copied to output (filters cannot be applied in Copy mode)(nbsp)(ndash) selecting a video encoder from the drop-down list allows you to configure it (the Configure button) and set video filters (the Filters button); if a supported encoder does not appear in the list, it means Avidemux has not been built with support for it 
- 
-{{using:​sidebar-audio-gtk.png}} The default audio encoder is "​Copy",​ which means no audio encoding, audio from the input will be copied to output(nbsp)(ndash) selecting an audio encoder from the drop-down list allows you to configure it (the Configure button) and set audio filters (the Filters button); when the the A/V shift checkbox is checked, audio will by shifted by number of milliseconds set in the A/V shift spin box 
- 
-{{using:​sidebar-format-gtk.png}} Select the output format; the default A/V container is AVI
