Hello,

I have an AVI file created on my DC1000. I am capturing the video in the maximum parameters capable :-

Bit Rate : 25Mbit/s
video : PAL 720x576 25fps
Audio : 48KHz 16 Bit Stereo.

I create an XVCD which is identical to the VCD except the video bitrate is 1700kbps. When I run it through TMPGEnc I think the quality is great the picture is smooth and I can see no blocks. However when I run it through LSX Encoder Premiere Plug-In (full version not lite) the quality is not nearly as good. Again, I setup the parameters the same as the VCD but change the video bit rate.

Am I missing something, is there some setup parameters that make it as good as TMPGenc.

Thanks

Colin.
