I finally got my HDHR setup within GB-PVR (it's a lot easier than with BTV) and can record HDTV. For the time being, I only have a 160GB HD in my HTPC so I was hoping to transcode any HDTV show that I record to Divx to save file space. What would be the best way to do this? I see in the processing tab of Config that dvr-ms and ts can be auto converted to Divx, but I thought I read that it didn't work unless everything was configured properly. Would dvr-ms or ts provide better results after the conversion? I am trying to get ComSkip set up as well and would like that to work even after the conversion. So, to reiterate:
EDIT: I realize I should mention that I am recording a clear QAM signal from Comcast.
- What to I need to convert HDTV to Divx?
- What is the best format to record to for the conversion (dvr-ms or ts)?
- Will ComSkip still work after the conversion? If not, then how could I make it work?
