Flash Media Encoder 2 has been released

Bit late to the party but I thought I'd quickly post that Adobe's Flash Media Encoder version 2 has been released. Go get it here.

Looks pretty good from a cursory look at it. At least it starts up unlike the last version which I had to uninstall some stuff to get it to run.

I'll probably mess around with this a little later on, hopefully I can get some time to post a review here in case anybody wants to know what I think :)

Some new features:
- Command-line options. Use command-line options to run encoding sessions via scripts or from a command prompt.

- MP3 support Encode audio in either MP3 or Nellymoser format. For MP3 format, you can also choose the number of channels (mono or stereo).

- Timecode support. When using a device that can generate timecodes, embed an SMPTE timecode in the video stream.

- Features for enabling 24/7 broadcasts. Several settings and command-line parameters make it easy to run encoding sessions continuously. Create scripts and integrate them with your existing automated systems.

- Support for remote access. Access Flash Media Encoder-in both GUI and command-line mode-via Microsoft(R) Remote Desktop Connection or RealVNC(tm).
