[QUOTE="sporktastic, post: 12348"] Update the transcoding function in core to handle more than a dvr-ms to mpeg2 converstion. The ability to handle ATI VCR files along with conversion from MPEG2 to a format like DivX, XVID, WMV to reduce space usage would be helpful. I would like to create a plugin that doest this based on a user selected schedule or monitors the recording folder, and rewriting the transcoding section seems like a waste. If someone is more familiar with it I can give them the filter graphs for ATI VCR to MPEG2 or ATI VCR to DivX. If there is no one available I can look at doing it myself by either rewriting transcoding or implementing it within my plugin, but it would probably take a little bit longer and produce redundant code. If the transcoding function ran off of the XGR files from GraphEdit and all you had to do was add a .XGR file to a directory within MediaPortal to add a new conversion type to the transcoding function, then if it is not supported users could create their own filter graph and have that functionality without having to wait on development. This would also prevent new hardware from having to be purchased by the core development team to handle issues like converting .VCR files to MPEG2 or some other new format developed. [/QUOTE]
