Thanks, But I need to read from a file instead of a device. The file I created contains 5sec vifeo stream but when I try to convert it using transcode it continues to process data until i terminate it manually.

Here is what I use to read from a v4l device and write to .avi transcode -x v4l,null -V rgb24 -i /dev/video1 -y ffmpeg -F h263p -g 1024x768 -o test.avi -x v4l,null defines the input video and audio format. -i is the input. Change the -x v4l to v4l2, and you might be able to read right from the driver. "viewable format" is kinda vague, but try removing the -x option and maybe it will guess right. to see what format a file is: tcprobe -k filename Carl K Sent via BlackBerry from E-Plus
