Can anybody tell me of a relatively cheap way of generating MPEG
data from a standard video source?  Can the NeXT machine do this?

Thanks in advance - Gary

Hi,
just buy our Xing technology MPEG encoder for 499 DM and use your
favourite frame grabber to store TGA pics or use our PC Huuricane for
additional 999 DM to grab 25 frames/sec to extended memory at 320x240
screen size. If you have 64 MB memory there will fit many frames
inside the RAM and then you can store them in TGA format.

Then the MPEG encoder "renders" them in about 1.5 seconds/frame to a
MPEG file.

If you have any additional questions, please email me.

BTW, there is a free player called MPEGXING.LZH which works on the PC
under win3.x

It is on:
ftp 130.231.240.17  in pub/mpeg

Best regards Stefan Hartmann.

... but not with some popular graphics cards, in my experience.

I did! I'm sure it's excellent software, but it doesn't work on my machine.
