Templates make a difficult task easier — and video tasks are among the most difficult ones in modern computing. Below are several templates that you may find useful for MPEG-1 and MPEG-2 video encoding.

TMPGEnc Video Encoding Templates

Although it’s now more than 10 years old, TMPGEnc Plus 2.5 is still one of the most customizable high-quality MPEG encoders around — and it’s dirt cheap at only $37. It was this level of customization that allowed for advanced tweaking of the settings, especially the encoding matrices.

In the tables below are the primary optimized KVCD and KDVD templates, which use the “K” method of encoding MPEG-1 and MPEG-2 for CD and DVD media. Below the three tables are some further notes on the templates.

Note that extended, alternate, and beta/testing templates can be found in the forum.

The times given in the chart are maximum, and will be affected by the content of your videos. The output quality is also heavily affected by the input/source quality. Commercial DVD sources, for example, will look much better than a ratty VHS capture unless it’s heavily prefiltered in Avisynth before encoding. High compression works best with high quality source.

Tip: The tables can be sorted by column by clicking on the column header.
