Any experience with this ??? While i didn't explore exactly that kind of change, i had good results with using -N (or -N 1 with the recent Release Candidate version). It lowers the actual size/bitrate requirements without the need to change -b. It also has a good effect on the image quality, but that's probably because i'm using an amateur-grade CCD, not a professional camera. While i suspect that increasing -q will produce a similar decrease in space requirements, i'd rather try -N first. -- Florin Andrei http://florin.myip.org/ ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: VM Ware With VMware you can run multiple operating systems on a single machine.
