FFMPEGrec, just like the other XXXrec (i.e. NVrec in your previous message) are part of the NVrec package. NVrec can "front-end" other encoders/codecs and provide a (hopefully) better A/V sync[1] than the other encoder/codec. IME, NVrec achieves the best A/V sync I have found although mp1e has been staying in sync for some shortish tests I did earlier. mp1e does that though. It tends to start in sync but drifts as the file goes on. NVrec does have an "mp1e" front end in the form of a driver for the RTE library (RTE is supposed to be the core of mp1e without the goo around it to actually take command line args and do the recording) but the RTE library has some deadlocks in it that need to be fixed. Oh I wish I wish I wish. :-) 1. If the A/V sync were not better the XXXrec front-end for another encoder/codec would be pointless of course. b. -- Brian J. Murrell
