Is there any way to feed the output from streamer directly into transcode or something similar to compress the video on the fly ? (i'm currently using transcode to compress the data afterwards, but the problem with this is, it takes just as long to compress the video as it does to record it n the first place). Any idea what could be causing the problem with transcode and mencoder ? Lee
