Yup. A problem indeed. Especially since it was only around N810 launch time that I finally renamed it from '770-encode'.
'video-encode' is a bit generic. Perhaps I should have a competition? A free copy of the entire mediautils suite for the best suggestion!

I considered stuff like mobile-encode, maemo-transcode, transcodr, vidpacker, video2go, etc, etc....
But then it occurred to me... What if the new RX-51 can just play everything except maybe full 1080p? Wow... The specs suggest that it should be able to handle video a lot better than the current tablets. So maybe tablet-encode will be unnecessary for the next generation... On the other hand, maybe HD video will become so ubiquitous in the next few years that we'll still need to do a lot of transcoding...

lol. If it's using mencoder to resize and reencode the movie, why not just skip a step and just use mencoder directly. That's what I've been doing. I've also found that by doing that I can batch my work for faster conversions.

However, there's still a place for ripping DVDs and transcoding for space purposes.

What do you mean by "batch your work"? tablet-encode (the command line version, not the GUI) can take multiple inputs and transcode to a single output directory.
e.g. to rip all the episodes of a TV series DVD (in the best language for the current user), but none of the special features to an N810 mounted over USB:
Code:
tablet-encode --episodes dvd: /media/disk0/MyDocs/.video/

"transcodr"'s quite nice. Can't use anything involving "maemo", as it's against the trademark policy.

encode-or-die. Now, who dares to tell me that that is plain? :P

Only a few more months left before an app with "tablet" in the name may sound a bit obsolete...
