KVCD: Pioneer Users Amd KVCDx3

[pacodoni]

Hi everyone.

There is no contest that KVCDx3 is amazing quality, but i'm wondering, if someone had success to make the KVCDx3 works out on pioneer.

I have a DV-525, and, i'm trying to do a kvcdx3 as Video-cd Mpeg1, without burinig as SVCD.

I've already tried the settings in FitCD ( use 544X480 3/4 full, small, change blocks overscan ) but still no success.

So, i just wanna know if someone know how can i make a KVCDx3, that fit the hole screen, as mpeg-1, burning as VCD.

Thanks in adv

I have Pioneer DV343 and the only resolutions I get to work are:

352x240 (28
704x480 (576)
720x480 (576)

So far I tested a few different resolutions in a 32 lines increment but I had no success

I have the DV-340 and I have found the following to work with the correct screen size and playback (NTSC):

MPEG1

352x240
704x480
720x480

MPEG2
352x480
480x480
528x480
704X480

I find the image quality is not as high in the higher rezs using Mpeg2 than Mpeg1 but the differences are pretty slight on a tv.

I've used the KVCDx3 template with my pioneer 343 without any changes and it works just fine. You have to burn as an SVCD though (encode in mpeg1 not 2 - just burn as SVCD with VCDeasy).

I did it once using FitCD as Kwag described, but I've also done it without FitCD and it still came out alright.

Hi m0rdant

This way you did also works, burning as SVCD, it does a similar process, i've tried to, think that maybe works better than encoding with mpeg-2 and mpeg-1 after, but, in my case i couldn't use cause i have two different standalones, and one of them don't liks SVCD, freezing when you hit PLAY button.
So, because of this problem, i had to do the encoding with mpeg 2 and after mpeg 1, cause it gets more generic, adn acceptable in my material.
