Is tcrequant supposed to be properly working in transcode 1.0.2 on x86_64? I'd like to shrink some video files a bit to make them fit better on a DVD, but I just end up with garbage, whatever video streams I try to give it...

Trying this out on a i686 fc5 system produced a requant file which was also broken and was the same size, but had a different checksum. Mysterious. Any suggestions, could anyone else try this? -- /* * * Otto J.
