I never tested it myself, but I remember having read that MPEG2's quality matches the quality of any other codec (at a possibly higher bit-rate). > > Either compile latest svn or try ffmpeg - rc2 is definitely unsupported. > > I'll probably have to make another effort at compiling ffmpeg, the > download from Darwinports is broken (problem with x264). --disable-x264 --disable-x264-lavc ? (Which of course disables the encoder giving you the best quality for a given bit-rate.)
