is this svcd good quality?

[scotty00]

so i just like burn the dvix ripp onto as a svcd. and when i play it on my dvd player. everyone looks good. expect for the background of the movie. i often see large box squares pixal? is that like normal for svcd?

That would be your source(divx)... You do a DVDrip -> SVCD and its unlikey you will see any blocks

[Puggsley456]

that is usually caused by a video bitrate that is too low. What you may want to try is increasing the bitrate or use a higher motion search precision.

what i did was set the bitrate to 2100/ksec, isn't that high enough? cause any higher. it might not fit in to the cd. and how much difference does higher mothing search do? cause i did it on normal and it took 1 hour just to encode the movie if i do the higest it would be 3 hours. I don't like have all day to do that to ever episodes. since i have a total of 24 i want to burn.

[Puggsley456]

Set up a "Batch" to encode then let your computer encode them overnight. I find that the higher the precision the less the amount of blocksand blur during fast moving sections of the movie.

[scotty00]

what does batch encode like encode them all at the same time? or 1 by 1 as you are sleeping? cause usually when i am encoding the movie i am usually doing is open 2 tmpg and encode 2 movie at the same time, and download at the same time. would that affect anything?

[Puggsley456]

If you encode two movies at once doesnt it take forever? Because when encoding one movie it uses almost all of your processor, I can only imagine how long it would take for two at a time.

A batch encode makes almost like a list of what files you want to encode and at what different settings. Then it will encode one after another, one at a time untill they are all done. I set it up to encode two movies left for work and when I came back they were done just as if I had done them one at a time.

my two cents worth..

Just thought I'd let everyone know that divX v5.0.2 has a bitrate limit set
to it at 2000 give or take. I've done many tests. Coudn't really figure out
why my encodes weren't coming out right, then I did same bitrate w/ v3.11
and filesize grow quite a bit. Then, I realized that v5.0.2 is set w/ a limit,
but I don't actually know the limit, as it may be derived from your particular
source.

I noticed that bitrate stops somewhere around or below 2000.

I don't know if it effects v4.11, but v5.0.2 DOES have a limit, and you may
have to get the PRO (license version) if you want higher bitrate usage turned
on.

Well, the above may be the cause of your "blocks" if it's v5.0.2 that you are using

i thought the divx coder is free? so what do that have to do with being licence version? cause what we are talkign about is the tmpgenc.

[vhelp]

oops,
my mistake, I though you were trying to encode to divX.

-vhelp

[scotty00]

it seem after using the highest quality of motion precision, the image got a little better. but not enough to notice it much. but the blocks are still there, maybie its the movie. since you would notice alot of the blocks when in black background.

[vhelp]

scotty,

if you wanna be sure its the movie you are encoding, then maybe as an
experiment and D/L the sample divX clips I still have up at my thread
here: VHELP's Samples

Hopefully, you shouldn't see as many blocks (if at all, but then again.. )
I don't know how they compare to the ones you've ben D/L'ing, but I do
hope that my divX samples prove otherwise.

Let me know if they do the same or whatever.
-vhelp

[scotty00]

accully the block only happens when i watch the vcd on my dvd player, on the the computer you won't see it.

[Fozzee]

BATCH ENCODE.......

This does not do 2 at once!!!
It does the first one independently.
Then moves on to the next.
So it doesn't do it any differently than usual.

Just one after another.

i believe Puggsley456 already said that. why not you just read everything before you post man.

[Fozzee]

Well blimey your an ungrateful s**

I'll remember not to try and help on any of your posts in future.
With attitudes like that it's not surprising posts go unanswered

so i just like burn the dvix ripp onto as a svcd. and when i play it on my dvd player. everyone looks good. expect for the background of the movie. i often see large box squares pixal? is that like normal for svcd?

And you call this English that I can READ and FOLLOW do you???

Look at your own posts before criticising others!!

Don't be "cheap" Fozzee.

Whooooooooooah

I wasn't being cheap. I wouldn't of dreamt mentioning the poor English if.....
I hadn't been criticised for trying to help.!!!

So many people complain about their posts not being answered.
I always try to help if I can (with my limited knowledge).
Even though there are so many threads that can be answered by searching the site properly.
Do I say anything NO!!

Yes, this I can agree with you on. I have a few "un-answered" posts.

hmmm... I'm off to start another post on..

Later guys.

you are just like the damn french. alway help when the war is over. and wanting to claim the credit. When I post, I post as if I was talking with someone. when you talking to people, no one use perfect grammer
