KVCD: how big does file size get?
 

I've got a movie of almost 2 hours, if I use the templetes, how big does that file become?? 1200MB??? Or am I suggesting this wrong? Can anyone help me, because I don't want to expirement it, because it takes me 3 hours.

Hi Joeri,



For one CD try KVCD-LBR and for two CD's try KVCDx3. They will give
you the best quality. For experimenting use the "Predicting File Size"
avs script. Just cut and paste you settings from FitCD. Below is an
example.

LoadPlugin("E:\DVD Backup\2 - DVD2SVCD\MPEG2DEC\MPEG2DEC2.dll")
LoadPlugin("E:\DVD Backup\2 - DVD2SVCD\C3D\Convolution3D.dll")
Mpeg2Source("D:\Temp\movie.d2v")
#
# ------- Place FitCD settings here ------
BicubicResize(336,224,0,0.6,0,0,720,480)
LanczosResize(496,448)
TemporalSmoother(2,2)
AddBorders(16,16,16,16)
#
# ------ Test File Size here ------
IL = Framecount / 100
SL = round(Framerate)
SelectRangeEvery(IL,SL)
#
## MPEG size = ((Total frames/Framerate)/100) * (MPEG sample file size * .95) ##
#
# ------ End of Script ------

# ------- Place FitCD settings here ------
BicubicResize(336,224,0,0.6,0,0,720,480)
LanczosResize(496,448)

so your resizing twice??

Hi joeri,

Sorry! :roll: No wonder your confused about what to use. Here's a
corrected avs script for KVCD-LBR source being DVD. You may want to
use FitCD to get the aspect ratio more accurate. :)

LoadPlugin("E:\DVD Backup\2 - DVD2SVCD\MPEG2DEC\MPEG2DEC2.dll")
Mpeg2Source("D:\Temp\movie.d2v")
#
# ------- Place FitCD settings here ------
BiIinearResize(336,224,0,0,720,480)
TemporalSmoother(1,2)
AddBorders(8,8,8,8 )
#
# ------ Test File Size here ------
IL = Framecount / 100
SL = round(Framerate)
SelectRangeEvery(IL,SL)
# End of Script
