I'm using Media Catcher to grab TV shows off of Hulu, then Converting them to Mpeg2 before sending them to my tivo. Is it possible to catch & convert all in one step, or automatically convert after a file is finished in media catcher?

It really seems like grabbing the video and saving to Mpeg 2 should be a single operation from a user standpoint, rather than 2 seperate operations, even if the software actually has to save the flv file and then convert it.

Hi

As of now it's not YET, but we are working on allowing Replay Media Catcher to work together with Replay Converter, which would make this a-lot more possible of course.

I don't have an ETA for that yet, but i know it's being worked on currently.

Well, consider this a vote for that feature. :)

Jeff is correct...we are working on this as a future project. A lot of people have shown interest in being able to convert directly from Media Catcher. I think it's going to be a really cool program!
