  1. XVCD-related...I have a 28 minute AVI that I am trying to XVCD. Bitrate Calc says that avg bitrate can be 3706 if my audio is 160...However, TMPGENC XVCD on this site reads that bitrate for XVCD should not go over 2500 for it is too much for the player to decode...which do I go with; the TMPGENC recommendation or the seemingly high Bitrate Calc?


    Thanks

  2. What DVD player do you have?
    Some will play very high bitrates like 3500.
    My Toshiba SD2710 for example will play 5000.
    Possibly higher but thats the most I tried.
    2500 is good quality however, and is what I usually use.
    Check on the left of the webpage under dvd players what your model of dvd player is capable of handling.

  3. I have the Mustek300/Classic dvd-102 series...the list of DVD players says it can 'handle' bout 5000, but that is for short clips, not half-hour stuff that I use......HOWEVER I am still looking for what it can do in the XSVCD realm, it locks up (30min clip BTW) at 2pass VBR, 3000 average, 3600 peak, 500 minimum, but seems OK at 2520 avg, 3000 peak, 500min....

    I know it is player-specific, but some places on this site do not differentiate specifically enough the XVCD and the XSCVD specs..

    Thanks for the reply

  5. I have read that some DVD player dont like VBR.
    I have never tried using it coz my results have been positive with cbr.

    XVCD settings I use:with Tmpgenc in no partucular order

    352x240, nstc (4:3 0r 16:9 depends on source),
    bitrate: 2000kbps(lower or higher depending on length of source),
    audio 192, 44100,
    highest quality slow,

    29.97 frames per second,
    CBR
    interlace
    Bottom field first (field B)
    full screen keep aspect ratio
    buffer - 40
    Stream type MPEG -1 VideoCD (Non-standard) this is under system

    When burining you have to turn off standard complient when making an XVCd.
    Never let Nero encode it for you
