Divx/xvid/ etc Conversion

[FNM]

Hi all,

Liking the new NPVR but have a couple of bug to iron out yet. While i'm waiting for other threads to be answered - thought i'd ask (as I can't find) as it possible for auto divx conversion? I was in recording tab but couldn't see any preference. It's recording but at 2 gig an hour, looking for a divx/xvid/ac3/small conversion out of the box - can't find any documentation on if it does this yet *unless i'm blind*

Thanks in advance!

Andy

There is nothing built in that does this. You can roll-you-own by running commands in the PostProcess.bat file though (by running ffmpeg or other command line conversion).

I have no problem with anyone doing this, but I have no plans to build this functionality directly into the applications, because it complicates other features like client PCs, decoders used during playback etc.

thanks sub - saved me time in looking. I'll dig out a solution. Thanks for your quick reply

Good reason

Just use the postprocessing.bat in the scripts folder.

The text for mine (I convert to MP4 for the very same reason - train - London)

REM Encode to mp4 changing file extension
"C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\NPVR\Scripts\ffmpeg.exe" -y -i %1 -f mp4 -vcodec mpeg4 -deinterlace -r 25 -aspect 16:9 -acodec aac -qscale 6 -ar 48000 -async 489000 -ac 2 "%~dpn1".mp4

REM Delete original TS
del %1

Previous versions of NPVR meant I had issues with the updating of recordings when the file extension had changed, although I think mine was an isolated problem. In 1.5.36 I have had no issues. (Thanks Sub).

I need this feature as well, however my format of choice is "3GP" for my Samsung phone.

would it be possible to explain this to me in depth as I'm almost dim?

Thanks
