The auto compress function has a time associated with it 5 hour seems to be the default, what is this exactly??

Incidently anyone managed to get compression to xvid with elecard codec installed?

    The idea of the delay originated from recording main primetime viewing, and then compressing during the night whilst everyone asleep with computer downtime.

    Mainly use the compress just to go from dvrms to mpeg for running comskip on. never successfully got it to work with xvid, but someone might have. good one for tips & tricks if they have.

    Thanks for that, kinda figured it was something like that. Pity about the xvid, would really like to see that, 5 Gig for a two hour show is a bit much! and wmv seems to mess up the sound somehow. looks like I'll have to stick to manual compression for now.

    I don't know about MP2 but as you said you tried MP1 too, how is the MP music config ? MP(1) will only use LAV if you select "Internal DirectShow player" as music output, but then you lose gapless playback. If you you don't have multichannel music you can choose WASAPI as the output and set the number of speakers to stereo. I have...
