Custom Showsqueeze

[videonut]

I have a setup with a dedicated headless Snapstream server and two link PC's for viewing TV. My Snapstream server is not very powerfull around 2Ghz single core older CPU. I have a hot rod server I used for VMWare hosting with quad cores running Windows 2003 Server. I have a lot of CPU cycles going to waste during the night on that server. Mean while my Snapstream server is Showsqueeze'ing its little heart out, and is never quite caught up.

I can create a batch job that gets the mpg files from my Snapstream server and convert them into wmv. I do this ad-hoc to get a good compact format for my Zune player. Windows media encoder uses multiple cores, so it is quite fast.

Now for the question:
What would I need to do in order to do a 'Custom Showsqueeze'?

1) Convert file from mpg to wmv
2) Rename XML chapter file???
