Mike, as I remember, I had a lot of different filters. I’ll do my best to make a list of them and hopefully you can find it within them. However, I’ll warn you that one or more of the files I was using expires after some time or number of uses. I haven’t actually used this conversion since, as it is now just cheaper for me to buy Sonic’s MyDVD. Drop me an e-mail or watch the comments on this post. Good luck.

I downloaded the file from the ftp site, but I still can’t find the Moonlight MPEG2 multiplEX filter. Help! It the only thing holding from using this conversion.

Bill - Honestly, I haven’t got a clue how to go about removing the icon/logo from the screen on video like this. I would hope that if you were to purchase the Moonlight-Elecard filters (approx 45 USD), any video transcoded from that point wouldn’t have it. However, that may very well not be the case. I’m too cheap to bother with that myself. Given that the TiVo video I tried this with has station ID, Comcast Digital show info, & even local snow relates school closing information overlaid, it would seem like way too much work for very little result. You may have some better video or some other reason to want to take it off.
Anyway, short of that, I’d say you might have some luck with some digital video editing software, since you’ve not got it in the relatively editing friendly MPEG2 file-type. Never-the-less, good luck, and if you do find anything, you’re of course welcome to post back here with what you discover.
As far as the Moonlight MPEG2 multiplEX filter is concerned, I don’t think Moonlight/Elecard has changed the file since I downloaded it. I must have been mistaken to say that it came with the Xmuxer Pro 1.0. I was playing with a lot of filters last weekend and didn’t keep clear notes as to what came from where. It looks as though you found it, but for completeness, you can download it here via FTP from Elecard.

Thanx for the decoding tip. I would like to get rid of the little Icon though. Can you advise? Also I did not get the Moonlight Mpeg2 multiplex filter in the Xmuxer pro 1.0, as if they removed it. I found a version of Muxer 2.03 online that provided that filter. If you have a fix for the icon please advise…. Thanx again
