Or we can always change the old school > defaults to something better (I don't know what to though). libx264 is not always available and not that much common (it requires special permissions), and the avi to mp4 is IMO not that much common: it's not going to improve quality, while mp4 to avi has the benefit of creating videos compatible with old devices, which sounds like a more common use case. I also avoided avi to mkv because IIRC there are sometimes issue that require you to do something like -fflags +genpts. > > Thanks for your work on the site stuff. > You should thank db0. > Lou -- Clément B.
