Mobility Site - View Single Post - Command line MPEG2 -> MPEG4 encoder ?

WillyWonka · 05-30-05, 10:18 PM

I have a DHTV tuner card in my PC and have it set to record my favorite TV shows. Problem is the TV is recorded in MPEG2 format whereas my pocket PC and Modded XBOX wont play MPEG2 not to mention the huge file sizes.

There are plenty of GUI encoders around but these all require me to log in after a show has been recorded to start the process so im looking for a command line encoder (or other solution) so i could set a scheduled task on my pc every night that will encode any new MPEG2 files in my recordings folder...

ie) mp2tmp4.exe c:\recordings\*.mpg2

Anyone know of a prog that will do this?? even a GUI that can be scheduled to convert all files in a particular folder?

Cheers
