2.5.3300 SVCDs getting recoded

[nawo69]

I think there is a problem with the new version as all my svcds are getting reencoded, PAL(480x576) and NTSC(480x480) file are affected.

According to the change log SVCDs should not be affected

- ADDED: Re-encoding of non compliant mpegs to DVD specs - apart from SVCDs.

here is a log of a PAL svcd.

I aborted when the encoding started.

Hi,

I have a similar issue.

My assets are mpg2 compliant. But when trying to author to dvd using svcd2dvd, it will always reencode them to new files with _s2d.mpg extension. This never happens if I use Tmpgenc Dvd Author 1.6 - it will take my mpg files just fine without reencoding.

Is there a switch or anything I could do to avoid this "re-encode" stage?

Thanks in advance.

Can you post your log file so i can see what is going on please?

[wm2]

Thanks for the prompt reply.

When I try to do it the next time, I will capture the log file and post it.

Later.

Your files are not being re-encoded, only de/remuxed to be (more) DVD compliant for authoring. Nothing wrong there, that's how it's supposed to work.

Forgive me for I still don't understand why it needs to de/remux my files to be (more) DVD compliant. As TDA would take them just fine without issues. Secondly, the quality of the reencoded results are definitely blockier.

Nonetheless, I appreciate the effort.

Also, I sincerely wish that you can consider this (a switch to skip re-encode) as a suggestion for future feature.

Best regards.
