Not sure if that's a limit of the Nuppel recorder or not, but unless you're using current CVS, then you can't resize when you transcode. In 0.17 and older, the height and width on transcoding profiles were ignored. I just put a patch in CVS to allow resizing during transcoding for this very reason. I just picked up an air2pc card yet don't have anything powerful enough to play it yet so I am transcoding down to a more managable size. :) My P3-1Ghz slave backend took about 3 hours to transcode/resize a 1-hour recording down from 1920x1088 to 352x480 and that wasn't using the high quality MPEG-4 modes. > Is there anyway I could setup a custom job or is there some work around for > this so that I could transcode the files down to something more manageable? You could try bumping these values up in the source and seeing if it works if no one replies saying that it's possible to go higher. The limitions are probably there because regular OTA NTSC isn't good above that. -- Chris
