Preset Management

Stomp lets you store your own settings as well. These are called Presets.  You'll find a number of built-in presets are included. These are known as "factory" presets.

To add your own presets - click the + button on the toolbar shown above.

If you've not done so already, you might want to unlock the options panel by clicking the Lock icon, just to the right of the gear icon.

Your presets will always appear under the "Custom" heading. In the picture above, you can see two custom presets called DivX and Windows Media (we'll explain how to use those two components later on).

Adding a preset

To add a new preset you can either:

1. Click the + button
   
2. Right click and existing preset and choose the "duplicate" option.

Removing Presets

To remove a preset click the "subtract" button (the one with a - symbol on it) in the toolbar.

The Gear Menu

Click on the gear menu and you'll see all the specialist compressors installed in the system. Specialist compressors are self-contained compressors normally supplied by a third party and often have their own custom setup dialogs. Good examples are the DivX and WMV Flip4Mac components.

These compressors are usually setup a little differently (for more information see the Advanced Options page in the manual) than other presets but for the most part operate the same.  If you're looking for a video compressor component that you know is installed but can't see it when you use the standard video options, this is the place to check.

Turbo H.264

Stomp has built-in support for the Elgato H264 component.  If you've got one of these little devices, plug it in and the Turbo H264 option will become available on the gear menu.
