I'm apparently not being very clear.  I am a new user.  I have spent time 
and found the best filter combination for my different channels.  My *new* 
recordings are fine.  Now that I know the filter settings I need to 
optimize my storage/video quality, I want to apply them to old recordings I 
made *before* I optimized my settings.  These episodes (actually, 20 of 
them) were recorded using the *default* settings (RTjpeg).  I tried using 
the "filters" entry in the Transcode settings, but the filters are not 
being applied.

My questions:

1. Does the "filters" setting for transcoding work?

2. If they don't, how else can I filter the video?
