<div dir="ltr">Hey now that is an interesting question that F. posed, and that is what is everyone's archiving strategy? As I for one would like to know just what is the best way forward, and as with F. I don't like the internal transcoded output and speed with nuvexport is an issue. I currently struggle with constantly increasing storage space requirements to the point where I now have 1.5TB and I just added another 500GB to that figure this weekend as I had run out of space yet again, a situation not helped by BBC HD recording being about 9GB an hour each. <br>
<br>What I am doing to help a ltlle is to edit out lead in/out and commercials then doing a lossless mpeg2 transcode, what I have toyed with is using the Myth archive function to create an iso I can then either burn to disk or store on my server, the idea here being that I then retain the listing giode information for each episode of a series.<br>

</div>with ffmpeg, you need to use : -vcodec libx264<br>
for xvid, it should be: -vcodec libxvid<br>
