transcode is a text console video-stream processing tool.
It supports elementary video and audio frame transformations.
Some example modules are included to enable import of MPEG-1/2,
Digital Video, and other formats. It also includes export
modules for writing to AVI files with DivX, OpenDivX, XviD,
Digital Video or other codecs. Direct DVD transcoding is also
supported. A set of tools is available to extract and decode
the sources into raw video/audio streams for import and to
enable post-processing of AVI files.
There are a few FLAVORS that add functionality to transcode:
lzo: adds the ability to import and export AVI files
that use LZO compression for video.
mjpegtools: adds video encoding with mpeg2enc and audio
encoding with mp2enc from the mjpegtools package.
also adds the ability to import YUV4MPEG streams.
quicktime: adds the ability to import and export using
the libquicktime API, thus it adds the ability to
import and export QuickTime-compatible .mov files.
altivec: uses altivec vector unit for a huge speed-up.
Only works on powerpc platform with altivec hardware support.
Altivec is present on all PowerPC G4 processors.
Altivec is not present on G3 or earlier (60x) processors.
