Also can you set the bitrate with the H263 encoder? By default the h264 bitrate is reasonably high - nothing wrong with that, but if you want to reduce the size of the video and save on CPU I would suggest picking something a bit lower.</div><div><br></div><div><br><div><div>On 2 Feb 2011, at 05:39, Umakant Goyal wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite">Hi All,<br><br>Are there elements that can help to increase the performance of pipeline if i would insert them into the pipeline.<br>Actually, i am using gstreamer to transcode video file from one format to another format.
