All right so I'd like to start off by saying I am very new to any encoding done outside of Compressor and QT. I've been reading a lot found out ffmpegx was probably the best way to convert tivo files to play in quicktime. As far as I know I installed everything correctly with regards to ffmpegx, the software opens up fine and I dragged my file into it and set all my parameters I wanted and then I click encode, it takes a split second and dings and says its done. I know it can't be done that quickly the file doesn't play and I can't preview my settings. I Info works, and play works for a split second before stopping. Any help?
