Transcode is the word I'd use for the format conversion.

I run get_iplayer on Raspberry-Pi and the bit rate shown during transcoding a HD download is normally around 2500kbits/sec which I have always taken to be the bitrate of the resultant stream. It also reports a "fps" which normally has value of around a couple of 100. If the bit rate was that of the conversion it would be an awful lot higher than 2.5 Mbps... What does happen is that after a while the line grows 1 character longer due to a count going from 999 to 1000+. This then forces the terminal onto a new line, so you end up with this report scrolling up the screen rather than over printing the existing one. -- Cheers Dave. _______________________________________________ get_iplayer mailing list [email protected] http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/get_iplayer
