Is it possible to use the compress option when using TVServer? I can see the option to compress but it doesn't work. Or I am doing something wrong. I would like to be able to compress some of my recordings to xvid.

If your video is H264 it will not work. Otherwise it should do.

To account for h264 and other formats, i would like to request someone creates a plugin GUI for the Handbrake 0.9.3 CLI release that is coming out soon (currently svn), which can transcode h264 and other formats.

So are you saying it currently works for you with TV Server. I attempted to use it but it didn't seem to do anyhing. I am recording to Mpeg TS. It is not H264. Do you have steps to follow, maybe I'm not doing something right?
