[...] this link talk more about using proress with ffmpeg: > https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/Encode/VFX This looks very interesting too; my project definitely involves balancing CPU usage in compression with resulting data size, with the absolute requirement that the compression be 100% guaranteed to be real time. With modest hardware and three full-HD channels plus a 720p channel, it's a fine line and no doubt a better understanding of the prores encoder and its options will be very valuable. > > you can disregard everything else I said if you want to > I think I would disregard educated comments at my peril! thanks again :) _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-user mailing list ffmpeg-user@ffmpeg.org https://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-user To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email ffmpeg-user-requ...@ffmpeg.org with subject "unsubscribe".
