I hope this is just one of the options missing in trial version and in full version they will provide h.264 encoding. Because in non-live h.264 is not available either, it says you have to buy the full version.Sun, 26 Jul 2009 23:42:06 Z2009-07-26T23:42:06Zhttp://social.expression.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/encoder/thread/3abb1a89-1ef7-49a0-b516-a55c2d01d1c8#16092a82-6e1e-477f-bcc3-e1cf815818e3http://social.expression.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/encoder/thread/3abb1a89-1ef7-49a0-b516-a55c2d01d1c8#16092a82-6e1e-477f-bcc3-e1cf815818e3Dino Vhttp://social.expression.microsoft.com/Profile/en-US/?user=Dino%20V<p>Does anybody know more about encoding a live stream with the h.264 codec and Encoder3?<br/><br/>signed<br/>TOTALLY BUMMED</p>Wed, 29 Jul 2009 19:55:18 Z2009-07-29T19:55:18Zhttp://social.expression.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/encoder/thread/3abb1a89-1ef7-49a0-b516-a55c2d01d1c8#21322862-4b50-4fb4-8361-34f761fd04e9http://social.expression.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/encoder/thread/3abb1a89-1ef7-49a0-b516-a55c2d01d1c8#21322862-4b50-4fb4-8361-34f761fd04e9Petr Ocasekhttp://social.expression.microsoft.com/Profile/en-US/?user=Petr%20OcasekNo, it is not possible.
