Erich,
I messed with transcode a bit, but had trouble figuring it out. Maybe 
I'll take another look. I just accidentally stumbled on the concept of 
using VLC to stream to a file.  I am going to try to figure out how to 
do this from the command line, because what I need to do at the moment 
is not very complicated.
Thanks!
