AVI TO SVCD

[Kler_kler]

Wondering why AVI 704x576 resolution video is perfect when captured,
but when converted to SVCD it is also perfect in the computer, but dragging in the DVD player!

is there anyone who can solve my problem

1. AVI 704 * 576, 25 fps,
2. Encode with UVS 7, PAL SVCD

Thank You.

Hi Kler_kler,

What do you mean by "dragging"?

Have you tried any other encoder(s)?

What media are you burning to?

[Kler_kler]

I've capture the avi file with Asus V-7700 card in 704*576 pal format, then encode it with Ulead Video Studio 7.0 to PAL SVCD format, then burn it with VCDEASY Svcd format.

the dragging i mean is run very smooth for a few seconds and drags for minutes, I have 2 dvd players that is Toshiba and one cheap player, both gives the same result

This problem does not happen when the same particular avi file converted to VCD.

I've even tried it TMPG and few other encoder results are the same.

But when captured to 352*288 there is no problem at all, only thing is the picture looks strechted larger. I mean from 352*288 to 480*576.

obviously 704*576 gives better quality in SVCD

obviously 704*576 gives better quality in SVCD

...but also requires a substantially higher bit rate to look good (not below 4000 kbps is a good rule of thumb). And 704*576 isn't SVCD at all...
Also keep in mind that even if many players support SVCD, many fail to play SVCD at max bit rate. As a safety measure, don't go above 2000 kbps (audio + video) max.

what do you mean dont go above 2000 KBPS?

is it like this

Video 2000 - audio 224 = 1776 for SVCD resolution video resolution.

Correct me if wrong.

I will try it and let you know how is the result.

[mats.hogberg]

Xactly. Even if that imposes some restrictions on the quality level, it's better than a SCVD that stops now and then. You should try encoding at different bitrates to determine where your player stops - many at 2000 kbps, many much higher... There's no definite answer here.
