Re: [vdr] Converting H264 vdr 1.7.0 recordings to xvid (or x264) in avi container

...

I have a little question about vdr recording format when in H264 (BBC HD), currently I can convert with mencoder my recording made from my HD terminal after converting trp to ts. When I try to mplayer the same vdr recording (ie 001.vdr) it find no video track. I can only see them with xine from vdr or from command line Does anybody has successfully convert those records ? Thanks for help

you must use a different demuxer with mplayer:

$ mplayer -demuxer lavf 001.vdr

Will playback the recording.

thanks for your advice. It's working :) I didn't know about this hint

btw - when MPlayer developers implement such method ? recently ?
