I have used mplayer's mencode, but never found a good setting for video and audio streams which plays well under WMP.
Well, no idea what WMP is, so...
Windows Media Player
For good file size and quality (for about 700MB per hour) what should I use?
mp3 audio? or just pcm? divx?
Bouah... no : aac for audio... and x264 for video :-)

Thanks heaps Grégoire. I gather the you call that bash script from VDR directly? Where do you call it from??
Incidentally, I found the following link which explains mencode quite well : http://www.bunkus.org/dvdripping4linux/en/separate/transcoding.html
