Too much video noise in animated movies

[Junglefever]

I am trying to convert the Charlie Brown holiday trilogy to SVCD. My problem is that there is too much video noise for 2-3 frames when using DVD2AVI or XMPEG. Is there a way to decrease that in TMPGEnc? I don't understand the Noise Reduction settings.

Watching the VOB files through WinDVD on my computer looks fine, but watching the MPEG2 looks too choppy in certain scenes and makes me dizzy.

This has occurred in other animated movies I've tried to convert. Does anyone know why and how to get around it. Thanks.

the problem with DVDs of TV shows, most of the time, the video format is NTSC, not FILM...which means you cannot force film.. if you did, the video would look really jumpy

hence, there are two things you can do in tmpgenc after you turn off force film in dvd2avi

either 1) IVTC and encode as 23.976 + 3:2 pulldown or 2) encode as 29.97 fps + interlace (not 3:2 pulldown)

keep in mind the latter will make your output video interlaced...this means that your progressive computer monitor will not be really happy with it...however, your interlaced TV will be quite happy....

also, since the latter has more frames than the former (29.97 fps vs. 23.976 fps), the latter's video quality will be less than the former given the same settings (i.e. bitrate) because tmpgenc would need to spread the bitrate among more frames, which means each frame gets less bitrate to use and hence lower quality
