Creating divx encoded files

Hi

Yes that has given me some ideas, although I was wondering how I would use
the --ffmpeg-tv-opts <options> to achieve this in one pass rather than
having to run a second pass. I can't seem to find any examples of the use of
that parameter :(

Right, so what you need is to remux and potentially re-encode (if they're in
H.264). And since you say you can already

you have a way of doing that already. (Presumably using
ffmpeg/avconv?)

So you just need to get that command into the --command option of
get_iplayer:

       --command, -c <command>
              Run  user  command after successful recording using args such
as
              <pid>, <name> etc

Does that seem to be pointing you in the right direction, or have I
misunderstood the nature of your problem?
