A couple of ways to do this- depends on space and quality required. If you have space and want quality, capture the data raw from the tuner and then use mencoder to convert to mpeg/divx/whatever(30-40Gb+ 3hr tape). If space is at a premium, or quality is not as important, then use ffmpeg and convert on the fly. Need a fairly new cpu, plenty of RAM. This all very general, but good luck... _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
