Yes, but mjpeg does not compress that well although it may be the only choice if I want to remain patent safe. Please don't tell me that mjpeg encoding violates some patent. I thing mjpeg should defiantly be an option but I think using mpeg-1 should also be OK. Especially since hardly anyone knows even what patents are used. ffmpeg is a very good real time mpeg encoding which only used about 50% of my cpu on a PIII 500. -- http://kevin.atkinson.dhs.org _______________________________________________ Video4linux-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/video4linux-list
