yes this is a huge file.
The video is about 100min length, but it is in 8Mbps bitrate. I cannot
change the mpeg2 hardware-encoded bitrate with the current v4l2
driver. My capture board is too new and the driver not very old.

I already tried the reencode plugin, but I got trouble to make it
works. I never succeded to get a conversion done. What is complex, is
that Freevo is only a wrapper. It rely on tools preinstalled on our
computers, like mplayer, xine or mencoder...
Problems can come if my mencoder had been compiled with different
configuration options than yours.
About this problem, I think that a reference page should exist on
Freevo wiki to explain what features inside mplayer/xine/... tools are
needed by which freevo plugin...

Whatever, I think it would be great to have access to a plugin to save
to dvd what has been recorded on the hdd. This simply to have what is
available on a standard-from-the-market hdd-recorder.
