Does anyone know if there's a way you could automatically convert a downloaded torrent for itunes (apple tv / iphone) rather than waiting for the torrent to download and then manually adding the file into visual hub, handbrake or roadmovie?
I know you could use a folder action but then you'd be limited to using quicktime to do the conversion as I assume there would be no automator actions to control visual hub or roadmovie.
Does anyone know of a script or other method that would enable this process to be automated?

The tool I used to use was PSPVideo9 with it's AppleTV converter for the PC. Now, however, I just run Boxee on my aTV; it reads every video format, reads from the directory (doesn't need to run through iTunes), and is more usable in Alpha than aTV's OS is in Release.

Spheric Harlot,
I had seen that method but the problem is that the script dictionary that you need to download to make this work is no longer available due to the closure of techspansion. I have tried google searching for it and can't locate it elsewhere.

A little off topic, but I built a relatively cheap PC with a quad core CPU, installed fedora, ffmpeg and with some scripts I found, am able to encode two files simultaneously, and relatively quickly. It is all from the command line, and pretty slick.
