Video Conversion

Mr. Muskrat on 2004-09-10T03:11:48

I recorded a video of brian's Automating Software Releases talk. I have a 14.1GB AVI file now. I can create a VCD from it with no problems.

I'd like to create a smaller copy that people can download in case they missed the meeting. I created two different size videos using MS Movie Maker but they suffer from the malady that is a MS proprietary file format.

What other software could I use to create decent sized videos? I have two different computers here at home. One running MS Windows XP Pro and the other Slackware Linux 10.


MEncoder

I do most of my rescaling/cutting/yada with Mplayer's Mencoder Just make sure you have the right codecs :)

Thanks. I'll check it out. Maybe this will spur me on to start using Samba at home.
