What gives the Best Results when Encoding DVD-R TMPeg or CCE

[lemonkey]

Hello all Back-up Merchants,

I have done 3 back-ups of DVD's DVD-R's and I was wondering which is the best encoder.

I currently using DVD2SVCD with it turned up to DVD resolution (700 something x 500 something ) with the bitrate all turned up to 4200 etc.

I am currently using CCE as my encoder (using a 4 pass VBR) and was wondering would TMPeg give me a clearer image, because it is slightly blurry.


I know turning up the passes would give me a better picture, but how many passes. I have read that 4 gives you a pretty good quality and after 5 passes there is very little difference.

So could someone please advise me on there experiences with encoders.

Thanks,

Le Monkey

I Have Not Had Any Problems With TMPGEnc, It Gives me the best encodes. I use the current ver. of TMPGEnc and watch my movies on a 45in big screen and WOW. TMPGEnc is the BEST. :P

CCE is alot better and much fast any that has tried both CCE and TMPG will say CCE is better.
