I exported the same show twice, once with transcode and once with ffmpeg, in both cases leaving the resolution the same and selecting the defaults. The output file size is slightly different (350095580 vs 349024640) and the transcode version is indeed a little better, but not 5 times better. Thats right it took transcode 3 hours and 45 minutes to transcode a 1 hour show, and it took ffmpeg 48 minutes. Further, the transcoded version has occasional jerkyness in the video, (I think there is some playback frame dropping happening) on some players, and the video falls behind the audio in other players. This does not happen with ffmpeg. -- ----------JSA--------- _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
