-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I've had good experiences making good looking small files using the 3ivx ~ encoder. (http://www.3ivx.com/) It makes mpeg-4 files which quicktime 6 can play by default (and I believe everything in the linux world can pretty much play them too). I've only used it on a mac so far, but they have linux/unix binaries for use with xanim or openquicktime as well. matt Spencer Russell wrote: | Hey List, | I just finished a video project using all linux tools(cinelerra, | PD, transcode) and I'd like to put it on my band's website, but | I'm not sure what the best way to encode it is.
