Hello,
I'm running the following version of trancode:
transcode v1.1.0-cvs, on an Intel Mac on 10.5, compiled via macports.
I'm a bit confused on how to convert from one format (specifically
mpeg4,aac -> mpeg2video, mp2 ) - the goal is to play this file on a
Tivo.
Running tcprobe using the mplayer option, I get the following file info:
---
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/Desktop$] tcprobe -i input.mkv -X -M

format: probed by mplayer
source: 'input.mkv'

The original reason that I'm trying to transcode via transcode, is
because using ffmpeg causes jittery video playback on the output
transcoded file (of course, using the ffmpeg libraries with transcode
will likely get me the same thing). So far, this is the commandline
args that I'm using, with subsequent output:
---
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/Desktop$] transcode -i input.mkv -x ffmpeg -F mpeg4,aac
-y ffmpeg -F mpeg2video,mp2 -o ~lev/Desktop/video.mpg2

any help, or advice would be appreciated. I can play the file just
fine in its original format with mplayer, but that doesn't help me too
much with the Tivo playback...
thanks!
