mpg (259 MB, and yes I know) U2b for flashers. Shot at CCC-Studios in Berlin-Spandau.
         

A 259MB mpg? Thanks much!

         

With youtube, myspace and stage6 you could definately upload the video there...that is just being lazy.

         

What about you putting your idea into action, Mister Dilligent. I'd never upload anything on shitty flash sites. Name me a good license free (or the like...) converter and I see about stage6 (I have SUPER © and it sucks). Dek, which one are you using?

         

A.S. At the moment, viddler is accepting huge uploads (<=500MB) and allowing downloads. Exploit it while it lasts!

which one are you using?

I use StaxRip, which is just a graphical interface to AviSynth (frame server) + X.264 or XviD (video encoding) + BeSweet (audio encoding) + MP4Box or VirtualDub (A/V mux and demux)

Another favourite in the GNU/GPL is Gordian Knot. Doom9 lists several encoders (free and not), but the list is not up to date.

StaxRip is not very friendly (unless you're making a DVD backup, which is the only task it was actually developed for!) and sometimes I resolved to do the things manually, but the great thing of StaxRip is that it tracks down all the software you need and installs it automagically.

Other features: you can cut the video, and it cuts the audio accordingly; also has a built-in profile to create MP4s that are compatible with the crappy support Quicktime offers for MPEG-4 (no consecutive B-Frames and other senseless limitations)

Finally, AviSynth has an extremely powerful IVTC tool called Telecide. Handy for NTSC VOBs and uncompressed masters, which sometimes agencies sent.

Downside: AviSynth, as the name implies, is Video for Windows native. Formats different from AVI and MPEG must be imported with the Direct Show filter, which slows things down a lot, and sometimes fails. For example, I often have to export the audio from quicktimes to WAV using Super(C) because the filter only gets the video. Also, to compress MP4 with ASP video (non H.264) I have to export the video to AVI.

There's a direct Quicktime Import filter, but StaxRip doesn't support it yet. Maybe future versions will be more friendly.
