ps does anybody here capture with ati radeon and encode with CCE?
my huffy avi's come out squashed and scrambled. And don't know how to import mpeg-2 files.
could use some help.

I also cap at 720x480 (huffyuv with ATI AIW) with my destination being dvd. What I do is filter the sourc, delete commericals and resize down to 352x480 and create a second filtered source file which is also huffyuv encoded. Then using the second file, I encode to MPEG-2 Half D1 DVD (TMPGEnc) and burn it to a dvd+rw when I'm finished. Using this method, I cannot honestly tell the difference between the original source and the dvd. In fact if it's filtered correctly, it can actually look a bit better. I find 352x480 is a great resolution for TV caps.
If it's a particularly good episode, I'll encode it (second source) to DivX and dump it on a CD-R. The quality is not quite as good as on the DVD, but works well for my purposes. Of course if DVD's were as cheap as CD-Rs, there would be no question. :-)
Sorry, I can't help with CCE.
