[gentoo-user] {OT} Video encoder

[Grant]

I'm looking for an easy way to encode the video files I acquire into a
single format and level of quality.  It would also be nice to be able
to easily burn a DVD of the resultant file that will play on a home
DVD player.  I'm sure there are at least several choices in portage
and probably sunrise, but does anyone use one they are happy with and
would heartily recommend?

I haven't yet used it in its v1.0.0rc1 incarnation, but I previously enjoyed 
very good results with v0.1.4.

Try OGMRip. I used it successfully to encode video to X264, audio to
Ogg Vorbis, and put everything into a Matroska container. It offers a
much wider encodings and containers choice (like XviD and MP4). The
interface is clean and HIG-compliant. Not sure if it fits your needs,
though.
