CVS Video Encoder

CVS Video Encoder
from http://camerahacks.10.forumer.com/viewtopic.php?t=1463 The much needed and newly improved 0.2 release was just rolled out about 2 mins ago. The website is here: http://www.robogumby.com/cvsencoder/ . I redid the whole encoding sceme. Taking a former script that worked will with audio and did triple pass encoding and took in the best parts of my old script. Reworked it so the countdown time worked correctly. Added a few other minor things and bamb, I release this at around 12:40 A.M. eastern time. Well I am going to bed. Take care and enjoy everyone. I need to get some rest. Luckily my first class doesn't start till noon.

Lol, I was just coming over here to let everyone know about the application, and here you are already ahead of me. Thanks though for the advanced posting.

I threw together a quick linux shell script a while ago. I revised it today. copy this into a new file called cvsencoder.sh

if anyone is interested, i am working on two different projects right now. A GUI written with zenity for my current encoder, and also a CVS Camcorder to Video iPod encoder. when i get my zenity gui working that will also be on that encoder. I have started a new sourceforge page here. https://sourceforge.net/projects/cvsencoder/
