TOK vs CQMatic
 
Here are the results from both CQmatic latest version and TOK for the same move and same avs script using KVCD3 528x480 template. CQMatic was way off.

With out audio this came out to 870,463. TOK recommedned a CQ of 79.889 and CQ Matic at 90.

I just posted in another thread about CQ Matic requesting a CQ of 90 and my encode was way over. That was with version 1.05. I am now testing with RC5 and my CQ is on target back down to a CQ of around 79.

Note that I encoded the movie with ToK and it picked CQ of 81 and went over by 20MB so I know the CQ of 90 by CQMatic is way over.

I don't know what changed, but RC5 is more accurate for me then 1.05 or 1.02 which i both tried and got CQ90

I was thinking about what TOK was doing and what CQMatic was doing, so did a predictiion run only. I did not change the Max/Min in TMPGEnc, with TOK we don't change it, I left it at 2500/300 here is teh CQMatic prediction:

As you can see it is very close to what TOK gave me in the tread above, 79.17. Again I used the same avs script file, I just did not change anything in TMPGEnc.

So you're going back to RC-5 too, eh? So am I at the moment. I just did an encode from dvd source and the m1v itself was 800mb. So you got more accurate predictions when you went back to 300/2500 for min/max bitrate? I'll try that next. Right now I'm still using 0.57*avgbitrate/2000, but instead seeing if using vcalc gives a more accurate avgbitrate than moviestacker. Just out of curiosity, which did you use? vcalc or MS?

Bud 08-04-2003 02:30 AM

I used vcal, but on to get the Max, I did not use the ave, and I only used vcal max to input to CGMatic not TMPGEnc, I left the defaults alone in TMPGE.
