Transcoded AVI won't skip FF/RW like recorded TV

(I haven't quite heard that phrase: 'That puts paid to that' before. Does that mean if you have to pay, you're not interested?)

LOL, no it's just a quaint expression meaning something like "well that's the end of that". It has no connotations stated or implied to whetehr someing is free or paid for....

(Anyway, I think I'm going to see what MEncoder acts like when controlled by ZProcess... I like how ZProcess 'tames' ffmpeg. Just think it could be better...

Yup, I'm a fan of ffmpeg, but having said that, don't know much about either!

They might have the same problems, I think they are both based on the libavcodec.
Edit: However I do remember there was a retime.bat based on mencoder. I'll see if I can find it.

This is the retime.bat that I have:

Code:

:: retime_mencoder.bat
move %1 "%~dpn1_original.mpg"
start /low /wait mencoder.exe -of mpeg -oac copy -ovc copy "%~dpn1_original.mpg" -o "%~dnp1.mpg"

Seems to be mpeg to mpeg.

Yeah, there's something like that for ffmpeg that will retime a video, but i understand that that timing is not really the problem,but rather the TYPE of timing that is being used. I might be off a bit with that explanation, but it serves me, and my head doesn't explode...

Anyway, I have been comparing my ffmpeg strings with the mencoder documentation, and think that I may have a harder time than I thought.

There is a possibility that the new version of ZProcess and the included new build of ffmpeg may have solved this problem.

Be careful if you try, and read the back up instructions.

Please post ZProcess concerns in the ZProcess sub-forum...

Thanks
