|Builds and runs great here, thanks a lot Randall. Even 2.2.8 is |possible (with a bit more work). Great. What kinds of things did you need to do? Send me patches and I'll post a 2.2.8 port on the web page. Will do that tonight ! (I'm at work right now ) |Just one question : When one tests for the optimum frame rate, what does |it need a file name for ?? :) Well, not all disks are created equal, so when you optimize it records to the same area that it will be recording when you hit "Record". By default, this is some file derived from the filename base you enter. However, if you enter one or more videoCapFile's to override where it captures (I always do; allows interleaving writes to multiple disks), for example: ! Video capt temp files (optional - up to 4) - one on each disk for ! best performance Fxtv.videoCapFile1: /data/00-CAPTURE/fxtv.cap Fxtv.videoCapFile2: /32_share/00-CAPTURE/fxtv.cap !Fxtv.videoCapFile3: /share_bak/00-CAPTURE/fxtv.cap then it doesn't really capture to a filename derived from your GUI filename base. It uses these videoCapFiles and then just encodes to files with the GUI filename base. So while in the latter case it might not need a user-entered filename from the GUI, I thought it made sense to be consistent for both cases. Ok, thanks for that. Makes sense now. How's MPEG encoding working for you? I only was able to test the conversion on the 2.2.8 box, and there it didn't work. It told me it couldn't write the conversion script. I will look into it a bit more tonight. -Th To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message
