Is On the Fly Capture and Encoding Possible?
A windows loving friend (read in zealot) is actually sniffing around Linux, but he has a question. This is a Linux noob I'm talking about but a skilled windows guy.
His question was, can you hook up a DV camcorder with a firewire connection and capture and encode direct to DivX in Linux, in one step. The aim being to hook up the camcorder, 'set and forget', return after a while and have the DivX file ready to view.
Is there any software that will do that. He's tech savy but has no desire to delve deep in config files. The command line wont intimidate him too much though, if it's not too complex.
