The current version does - pretty well too. The only problem is that the only codec that can handle the format it captures in is the divx4 one (from xvid IIRC) there's no way to get it into any of the other codecs. EZ> Am I missing any one? What is the best way to encode off of bktr? I have a bktr grab for ffmpeg working well - but it has to be a recent cvs snapshot of ffmpeg to do a good job. Alex Teslik has put together a port including it at http://www.acatysmoof.com/ffmpeg. Expect it to be updated shortly with a capture fix from me (Alex already has it), and an updated ffmpeg snapshot with new features and some PTS fixes. I think that with a fast XP or P4 it should make real time high quality mpeg1 in 768x576 :) It takes about half of my 1200/266 to do 384x288 real time, which makes for a nice VCR and I can even program it easily :) - at, cron ... these things I can cope with. I just have to remember not to hit the system with a heavy load while recording :) -- C:>WIN | Directable Mirrors The computer obeys and wins. |A Better Way To Focus The Sun You lose and Bill collects. | licenses available - see: | http://www.sohara.org/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message
