The current ffmpeg parameters for Ogg Theora leads to very low quality video. This changes uses the example command-line from http://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/TheoraVorbisEncodingGuide (which is within their "good range to try" suggestions).

This addresses the issue at http://pculture.freshdesk.com/support/discussions/topics/13550. (Not sure what the Bugzilla bug ID is, otherwise I'd include it here too.)

For future reference this comes from http://support.mirovideoconverter.com/support/discussions/topics/13550/page/2

Here's what I did:

  1. drag and drop your Miro Video Converter app onto your desktop.
  2. Rename the app to 'miro'
  3. Right mouse click the app and click "show package contents" double click "Contents" then "Resources" then "lib" then "python2.7" then "mvc"
  4. Edit "basicconverters.py" in your favourite editor or in text edit
  5. Replace line '43' with:
parameters = '-f ogg -vcodec libtheora -c:v libtheora -c:a libvorbis -q:v 4'
  1. Open terminal
  2. copy paste this and hit enter:
cd ~/Desktop/miro.app/Contents/Resources/lib/python2.7/mvc
  1. copy paste this and hit enter:
python -m compileall .

Don't forget the dot.
