FFmpegX 0.0.6f - mplex/mux problems!!

[Flip Flop Frog]

Not exactly sure why it's doing this... but I've tested it on 3 different DVDs now.

It encodes the video (movie.mpv) to about 1.19GB
It encodes the audio (movie.mpa) to about 231.2MB
It muxes the a/v file (movie.mpg) to about 250MB ... hrm? say what?

Then when it goes to mux the files out comes a 250MBish file that is in sync but isn't the whole movie. It quits less than half the way through.

If I open up the MPV file in Quicktime and watch it, it is the WHOLE movie, from opening to credits. If I watch the muxed MPG file it starts at the begining and then just randomly stops part way through.


I deleted all the files except the MPV and MPA file and tried dropping them in ffmpeg to mux and author it manually, but the same results... cut off files.



Major? Anyone? Please?


Thanks folks...

Do you have sufficient space left on your hard disk? Or email me your terminal output.

[Flip Flop Frog]

Well... I would assume 38GB free would be enough...

But here is the terminal output....

Use ffmpegX "Mux as.." tool and choose XSVCD or DVD profile depending on what you want to do. Don't use SVCD profile as you encoded with a non-SVCD bitrate.

Really?

What is an SVCD bitrate? does it have a Max or something?

I've alway just set it at whatever was the best quality and was going to make each file under 800 MB.


Is an XSVCD as compatible as a standard SVCD?


Thanks,
