Re: transcoding with SwissCenter/VLC on Synology CS/DS - 2008/07/22 09:23
Hi Nigel,
Nigel wrote:I've not yet made any progress with the transcoding, been spending more time on Popcorn compatibility. It could be another couple of releases before I have anything definitive on his.Capito, didn’t expect it either, but I just want to be prepared in case transcoding becomes a fact somewhere in time.
Nigel wrote:What's the spec of the Synology CS/DS? If we ever get some kind of transcoding implemented then it's obviously going to require CPU power to transcode in real-time. I have my doubts whether this is a realistic possibility on the Synology.Well, there’re two current standards: first there’s one with a CPU clock rate of 266MHz and the second standard is a CPU clock rate of 500MHz. Older versions may have a CPU clock rate of 200Mz or even less (not sure). I assume that a clock rate of 500MHz will be just sufficient. What do you think?
Nigel wrote:Your error message sounds like you need to compile VLC yourself with iconv support.Yep you’re right, but I already was afraid of this answer as I don’t have any experience in this, but I’m going to give it a try. Did you compiled VLC on your machine?
regards, Klaas
