Hey all, I've been using the example reference encoder that comes with Theora reference implementation from SVN, but there are very few options to tweak encoding parameters in contrast to other codecs utilities such as x264, mpeg2enc, etc. Is there a way to access more advanced encoding parameters for Theora without having to dig into the source itself and make my own custom encoder app? Not that that would be a bad thing in the long run, but I am not sure I'm that ready for it...

What other parameters do you wish for? --Ben -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
