for ruby people, there's also the commercial project http://zencoder.tv/ , also the open source version http://rvideo.rubyforge.org/

but I prefer pandastream, seems a more viable solution imo

I'm one of the folks behind Zencoder. It's been a side project up until now, but we're about to take it full-time this fall, complete with a new version. Ping me if you have any questions - see my profile for info - or I'll post Zencoder announcements at http://railspikes.com.

There is a lot of need for lightweight video transcoding infrastructure right now, so I'm glad to see another solution on the market.

Anybody know of any Python API's?

I'd also love it if Justin.TV open sourced some of their Python media server stuff. :D

I wonder if the name 'Panda' was inspired from the Sneezing Panda.

Are there any demo websites created using Panda?

Any integration with FlixEngine?
