Discovered the frameserving feature of Virtual Dub. Now, I often converts avi's to SCVD (mpeg2). Virtual Dub is good for rezice, and TMPGEnc can make SVCD compliant mpeg2. I used to make a new avi in Virtual Dub, and then converting that in TMPGEnc. But it has several disadvantages: 1 - take twise the time at least, uses ALOT of HD space, quality loss due to several recompression/compression steps. But when I frameserve the sound gets very bad (sounds like 8-bit in 11 kHz or less). Now the source I tried this with, had 32 kHz mono sound, and I asked Virtual Dub to convert this to 44.1 kHz stereo. When producing intermediate avis (like I used ti) and then compressing this sound was fine, but when framserving with same options sound was bad. Is it due to the frameserving? Pleeze help me out on this...
