2 line vibrate vs 1 line vibrate.....

[jesse40902]

you only need 2 line vibrate for a lot of fast paced movements right? You dont need it if the its like soap operas and all they do is talk?

What ARE you talking about? Please explain because the term "vibrate" means Zip as far as video is concerned.

Well I think he means 2 Pass Variable Bitrate Encoding....

And yes, when there is lot of fast movement you will often get better results with a 2 Pass VBR encoding.

Why did I get a mental image of my Ex when I read that?

[jesse40902]

is that true though?

You use 2-pass VBR when you want the best quality for a specific file size. This works best if you have a mix of slow and fast scenes. The encoder can use less bitrate for the slow scenes and more for the fast scenes and give the same visible quality for both.

If you don't care about file size (putting less than 1 hour on a DVD, for example) then just use single pass and a high bitrate like 8000 kbps or 9000 kbps.

If you want a specific quality, with the smallest file size that will give you that quality, then use a single pass constant quality encode.
