You're right the second time. On the ConvertX hardware there's no way to feed raw video from the computer to be compressed by the encoder. I'm not sure this would be entirely desirable anyway; given that the ASIC is designed as a real-time encoder, things like run-length two-pass encoding are not possible. -Nathan
