Does anyone have a suggestion for software which allows real-time MPEG-4 (DivX or MS codecs) encoding from a DV 1394 source? Anyone with any experience? JamBoy

Have you looked at the Helix Producer at www.realnetworks.com ? I haven't used it for MPEG, but IIRC, it does some MPEG formats. regards, Mark.

I havn't tried it yet, but even for capturing, zapping (TV program) gives me this option. Michael -- There are 10 types of people in this world, those that understand binary and those that don't.

Anyone with any Mplayer with libavcodec does realtime encoding from v4l source, a TV card in my case. It just manages on a 1.2GHz Duron. Is there a v4l driver for your DV source?

Anyone with any >experience? Why does it have to be realtime? You will get a better quality encoding if you allow it to run in the background. I use dvgrab to capture the raw video (in realtime) from a DV1394 source (camcorder) and save it to disk. dvgrab writes one file per recording scene and each filename is the timestamp, so it's quite easy to separate different recording sessions. A 60-minute tape occupies about 12 gigs of disk space. I split it up into one directory per "movie" and use a tool to concatenate all the scenes into one big AVI. I then use mencoder (see http://www.mplayerhq.hu/) to encode the concatenated scenes, non-realtime, into 3 or 4 DivX files of varying bitrates.
