I suspect you can try if ffmpeg (the command line tool) and ffplay can read your file to answer this question. (I don't think anybody else can answer the question unless you upload a sample which likely takes longer than testing.) > 2. How do I get started implementing ffmpeg into my > PyQT project?

FFmpeg (actually libavcodec, libavformat and libavutil) are C libraries, what you want is probably possible if C libraries are supported at all. As an alternative, you can probably call ffmpeg (the command line application) from your PyQT project. > 3. Can I also use ffmpeg to record the video and > it's metadata? That depends on what you mean with "record". FFmpeg for example supports capturing the screen on X. For recording DVB, I would suggest cat (or mplayer -dumpstream).
