Does anyone with the older hardware can recommend suitable mencoder options?
i use this on my cely 400 @ 500: mencoder \ -tv on:driver=v4l:width=384:height=288:volume=59000:audiorate=22050:amode=0:forcechan=1 \ -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4:vqscale=4:keyint=300 \ -oac copy the video quality is very good (usually no artefacts at all), except that the resolution is ridiculously small. the fastest mp3 audio with acceptable quality is something like vbr=4,q=5,fast,mode=0 - but that is still too slow by a few percent. so i have to use raw audio. the audio stream is somewhat crippled with the above setting to save some space - but the lack of stereo does not matter that much, given that the visual effects don't look that good at the resolution anyway (so you don't really want to use it for home cinema). 22.05 sampling rate are fully ok. huffyuv was also too slow in full-screen mode. maybe it would work out with width=768:height=288. anyway, the amount of data is simply too large for my disk space. i'm wondering if it would be possible to do real-time auto-crop and create a variable resolution movie? greetings -- Hi!
