Hello,
can anybody please point me to some examples how to transcode/reencode to vdr format (ts or pes if necessary)? I found a lot of convert scripts, mencoder commandlines, ... to transcode from vdr to eg mp4. Unfortunatly I could not find anything for the opposite direction :-(
How can I go the other way round (to view external files in vdr with the same comfort as native recordings) or reencode recordings (to compress pes and ts mpeg recordings to h264 with lower resolution - you don't need full picture quality on an archive of political discussions for example). I could not find a mencoder option to output ts. I guess i need to encode with mencoder and then remux with some other tool?
Thanks for any link

Why don't you just use the mplayer plugin? It works with practically no effort and you don't have to waste your time unnecessarily converting things to mpeg-ts.
Hi Michael,
I tried several ts muxers but only result of SmartLabs tsMuxeR was playable by vdr.

hi,
beside this it's just a remuxer, not a transcoder you will need something like ffmpeg to transcode and if the resulting ts is not properly muxed for vdr you can remux it with that tool
maybe a package like ripbot264 fits better to the topic
http://www.videohelp.com/tools/RipBot264 (tsMuxeR is part of that package) or have look at this http://forum.doom9.org/forumdisplay.php?&f=78

Hi,
You could use ffmpeg to convert video files into MPEG-TS Format. A full-featured-DVB-Card support PAL like 704×576 (4cif)
#> ffmpeg -i myvideo.mp4 -f mpegts -vcodec mpeg2video -aspect 16:9 \ -sameq -s 4cif -acodec mp2 -ar 48000 -ab 192k 00001.ts
