CQMatic: Where do I get an accurate number of total frames?
 

Length from Headac3he = 01:43:36
128/MP2 = 97,125kb

Where do I get an accurate number of total frames?
FitCD (Stream) shows 82:53 @ 29.97 and 149041 frames
MovieStacker shows (Video Stream) 82:53 @ 29.97 and 149030 frames

I wish to make a KDVDfull for DVD on 2 700mb CD's

Output Size = (x /8)*60*minutes
1433-97 = (x/8)*60*104
1336 = 1713
Minimum bitrate = 1713*.57 = 976

hey nicksteel,
adjust the "movie time" in CQMatic to 82:53
like MoviStacker and Fitcd shows
and redo the "formula" to find the "minimum bitrate".

:wink:

Thanks,

Will try tonight. Do you know why the duration is different in headac3he and moviestacker/fitcd?

New CQMatic: 83 Minutes, 2146 AverageBitrate

Output Size = (x /8)*60*minutes
1433-97 = (x/8)*60*83
1336 = 2146
Minimum bitrate = 2146*.57 = 1223
