here are some audio options i found in the manual
`-ar freq'
Set the audio sampling frequency (default = 44100 Hz).
`-ab bitrate'
Set the audio bitrate in bit/s (default = 64k).

From what i understand about this, is that it will set the video output to the same as the input file.
`-sameq'
Use same video quality as source (implies VBR).
ex
ffmpeg -i file.avi -sameq -ab 300k file.mpg

make sure to put the audio and video options before the output file and NOT the input file.

Also you can do multiple conversions at once if your computer can handle it.

ex
ffmpeg -i file1.avi -sameq -ab 300k file1.mpg -i file2.avi -sameq -ab 300k file2.mpg so on and so forth.

Very nice!

In the options, are they on by default?

Disabled by default of course (since videos require a lot of hard disk space and you don't want your hard disk being flooded when going on some server, even if it was only by script error).

I think it fits here, so I'm writing it here. Since the video capture supports sound there are videos with sound added onto the website. Though you cannot mute the sound or turn off the video which is pretty annoying. That should be changed.

Sounds fair :)

Yes you cannot disable it although you only hear the sounds when entering the start page of the world, so normally you don't stay there for long time

I dont like your attidude on this one :/

What is your problem exactly? Those video are much more interesting when they have sound, otherwise it's like watching a film without sound and without subtitles. Just click on the next link to play the game if you don't want to hear it?

Apple had a very interesting method for their flash-based or video adverts; they would play silently until you moved your mouse over or clicked on one of them. The video would then restart, but playing sound too.

Perhaps you could do something like that? Personally I don't like webpages that are making sounds without my input.

I keep getting "Can't find index" errors when I try to open the videos I make.

Edit: Resolved. It was a problem with Haali Media Splitter.
