+transcode is a text-console utility for video stream processing.
+Decoding and encoding is done by loading modules that are responsible for
+feeding transcode with raw video/audio streams (import modules) and encoding
+the frames (export modules). It supports elementary video and audio frame
+transformations, including de-interlacing or fast resizing of video frames
+and loading of external filters.
+
+Requires ffmpeg, libmpeg2 (also called mpeg2dec), lame, libdv, libquicktime,
+libdvdread or libdvdnav, and a52dec (all available from SlackBuilds.org).
