Hello Alessio,

I used transcode to convert from DV-avi (from a Digital 8 camera). Works 
fine except one problem:
while fast forward/backward there is only a still picture? Maybe this 
has more to do with genindex than vdr?
For mpeg1/2 stream just renaming is enough usually, but I had  problems 
with sound sometimes (maybe the stream included several audios and vdr 
could't pick the right one?)

Write me if you have problems.

Michael
