Help on Video Transcoding for Web Distribution - ffmpeg / mplayerThis Wiki is a place to share notes and experience on using various tools for transcoding video for web distribution. In particular this site is about approaches for manipulating video at the web server, rather than using client side tools. Open source tools: ffmpeg, mplayer, mencoder, ffmpeg2theora, VLC Media PlayerIn particular I've been frustrated by the lack of centralized information on how to use the various source tools to accomplish common "video the web" jobs. The idea for this wiki is to organize a set of "How-tos" around these typical problems. These tools were created originally for playing video on Linux and working with DVD's, so their documentation around transcoding problems is very sparse and confusing. DirectShow (Windows) TranscodingFor completeness sake, I am gathering help and links on DirectShowTranscoding as well.Canonical How-To'sAs a start, here are the typical problems you face trying to get video up on the web:
