I can keep the first Machine (Athlon 1.4GHz) and the 2nd (Laptop PIV 1.9GHz) with that command really bussy: > time lav2yuv p1.eli | yuvcorrect -T BOTT_FORWARD -v 0| yuvdenoise -F -f | yuvscaler > -I ACTIVE_700x440+10+64 | rsh cyberdeck "buffer -m 10m | mpeg2enc -f 8 -4 1 -2 1 -q > 5 -P -I 0 -N 1.5 -o /mnt/enterprise/video_q5.p1.eli.m2v" But both computers produce a traffic about 5MB/sec constant. On one computer in and on the outher out. On a switch it is still no problem. auf hoffentlich bald, Berni the Chaos of Woodquarter Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] www: http://www.lysator.liu.se/~gz/bernhard ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: eBay Get office equipment for less on eBay! http://adfarm.mediaplex.com/ad/ck/711-11697-6916-5 _______________________________________________ Mjpeg-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/mjpeg-users
