Serviio's FFmpeg switches (might be off topic)

hello,

I just managed to stream a VP8/Vorbis .webm to my 2010 Samsung LED thanks to Serviio and FFmpeg, it worked like a charm.
now, I'd like to re/transcode the file to keep it and I wonder which switches or profiles Serviio passes to FFmpeg for this task.

I pulled the file from the TEMP dir, and its output seems to be much better than mine, despite all the switches I managed to gather - my file is MPEG-TS as well, but with a much lower (almost 1/7 actually) bitrate than the version Serviio/FFmpeg near-magically produced on the fly.

sorry if this is off-topic or if it has been asked/posted before (I did check here on the forum and the FAQ too)

thanks

If you turn on detailed logging you can examine the log file and see the ffmpeg command that is invoked by Serviio.
