Hi, I'm thinking about managing videos taken from my camera with f-spot and read about recent posts on that. I'm wondering if there is / will be some feature for compressing video. I use a Canon Ixus 65 camera that creates very nice 640x480 30fps videos but with a cost: _huge_ files. The compact camera just provide a basic compression that needs >100Mb/min. I usually perform some further compression offline (mencoder, ffmpeg) using some custom script that reduces the size to 1/6 - 1/10. The compression is quite slow.
Would it be interesting to embed such a function in future f-spot releases? A basic implementation could be just calling an external program, provided the desired level of compression. If it can be useful I can posts some of my short scripts (nothing wonderful, just some googling).
