Pioneer DV-525
 

Well,
I made an KVCD-template in 253x288 PAL. Burned it with VCD-easy at 8X. The mpg-file was about 650MB.

When i played the CD in my Pioneer DV-525, the picture quality was wery good, but the sound was delayed from start to end. It increased through the film. The sound also glitched recurly.

Im gonna try a solution that racaboy recomended for his Pioneer 636-D.

Hello agian.

Been doing a test with MVBR instead of CQ and changed VBV.

This combination worked better, but the filesize was bigger than CQ-mode.

Then i read a topic in the forum about KVCD with DVD2SVCD.

Doing some test with this combination.
Surprise, Suprice. I figured out that my Pioneer DV-525 don't like MPEG1-files as good as MPEG2-files.

I forgot to change to MPEG1 in DVD2SVCD, and encoded a file with MPEG2 instead of MPEG1, same settings as an MPEG1-CQ.
But the problems with the sound that occurd in KVCD-CQ-PAL dissaperd.
No crispy sound.

With this combination of KVCD-DVD2SVCD i theoretical calculated that i
could fit about 146 min. on an 80 min. CD-R. I only encoded a chapter from a DVD (7min and 19sec). It ended up in approximately 42MB.

This is my experience so far.

dogert :wink:

I forgot to say that i encoded the movie in 352x288 (VCD-PAL).

dogbert. :wink:

Just Do it.
 

My Pioneer DV-525 play the created MPEG-file perfect.

The file was created with DVD2SVCD, Tmpge 2.55 (300-1700), CQ=70,
audio 128, NTSC to PAL, burned with VCDEasy to create chapters.
109min movie = approx. 784Mb

To use DVD2SVCD wit the kvcd-template, i used this link to help me.

I changed the max bitrate down to 1700 beacuse i encoded the smallest chapter from the DVD. Roughly calculeted that the filsize for the whole movie would be bigger than on 80 min disc.

Hi kwag.
You can update your list regarding the pioneer DV-525.

I can play the MPEG2-template perfect,
but the MPEG1-template plays only about 2/3 of the TV-screen from left.

I used VCDEasy and created VCD and SVCD with the same result.

dogbert :D

Done ;)
