KVCD: 480x480 MPEG-1 template?
hey KWAG,
you ever thought of an sVCD resolution MPEG-1 template? i wonder how this would fair. i know aspect ratio's would be tough for widescreen, but its just a thought. i cant get over the compression of the standard 352 x 480 kVCD template, but im facinated with the crispness/sharpness of the 528 x 480 kVCDx3 template. just looking for a compromise... |

The difference in quality compared to 480x480 is noticeable. At least viewed on HDTV. Not to mention that I've seen some PAL samples (528x576) and they just blow away some 720x480 DVDs that I have :bigooh: -kwag |
what if im speaking strictly for 1 CD encodes...

Take a look at what "The sum of all fears" will look on one CD at 528x480: http://www.kvcd.net/sum-test.m1v I know this is pushing the limits, for something that should go in 2 CDs, but this quality was not available before on one CD at this resolution with prior KVCD parameters. Try viewing with PowerDVD or WinDVD. WMP :puke: big time -kwag |
wow! great sample, KWAG. but what about a lively movie, that one seemed pretty calm.
i just assumed that by decreasing the horizontal resolution, it might allow for just a bit more data, therefore, being able to increase the CQ value a bit, or what the ultimate goal is, to squeeze more time onto 1 CD. |

do you think i can get away with a max bitrate of 2300 with the 528x480 res or am i pushing the limits even more?
ps.. how can i upload you a sample of my 480x480? it looks pretty close, but the filesize is significantly smaller. |

What am I doing wrong? What script are you using? |

If your source is a 29,97 interlaced fullscreen movie, you will not get good results trying to fit 120min in 1CD. Go for 2CDs in a situation like this, or try a lower resolution template. |

I'd definitely need two discs for a higher resolution, though. |
You replied before I got to edit my post ;)

I get shotty results when encoding a 23.976 fps, widescreen, low-action movie. Here's an example script I'm using for a movie I'm in the process of encoding (normally there's no telecide/decimate): Code:
LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files\Video\Plugs\mpeg2dec.dll") |

Are you encoding to 480x480? I've always noticed more artifacts (particularly on straight diagonal lines) with this resolution. Quote:

Go for 2CDs in a situation like this, or try a lower resolution template. But please, tell us about yours LBRs encodes (after you try them on the TV)... Did you get satisfied with it? What about the sharpness? Did it get "boring" blurred, or it was OK for watching? What resize did you use, lanczos, bilinear or bicubic? |

why is it when i try to use Lanczos vdub says that it doesn't exist?

My encodes simply do not look as good as the samples that are posted, period. It appears I'm doing everything correctly and have been following the forums very closely.. no matter what I do, quality doesn't get any better.. obviously I'm not doing something right though :?: I also have yet to do any CQ_VBR encodes of anywhere between 90-120+ minutes at anything above 11. I think the highest I've gotten is 10.3. Is that normal? My CQ's have yet to be over 60. |
