More success stories. Version 1.1.07
 

Encoded Movie: "Sum of all Fears"
MovieTime: 123 minutes.
Average Bitrate: (My manual calculations. Not Moviestacker) 771Kbps
MIN = 300Kbps, MAX = 2,000Kbps
Wanted file size: 715,295.25KB
Encoded file size: 700,441KB
For a difference of -2.1% :)

Here's CQMatic's log: -kwag

Kwag,

Would you kindly post how you did the manual calculations, I just did a 115 Min movie an oldie but goodie (High 'em High) and it came out perfect, but with a CQ fo 41.32, still a very good copy at 528x480. with CQMatic 1.1.07. After bringing into Nero it was right at 800,045 MB. Thanks and great work

Bud

Here you go :)


This is what will go into the CalcuMatic (To be released hopefully tomorrow :cool: )

Please note that I have not left any safety margin, to consider the extra space taken when burned to CD-R (VCD/SVCD structure overhead). So you should subtract ~10MB from your CD size. In this case, I used the MAX size of the CD-R, which is ~819,000KB. So you could use ~808,760KB as a MAX size guideline. That will give you a safety margin ;)

Kwag....

Thanks...I may just wait, I did copy this to the notepad jsut for reference....my movie was Hang 'Em High...not High 'em High...someday I may just get that BIG keyboard...already have the BIG fingers.....thanks.

Bud

hi all..

@ Bud..,
I thought it was "Hang 'em High" ..Clint Estwood. Anyways..

Here's a snip from a part of my predition sheet. It's a NEW work in progress
for my own prediction ruler :roll:

EDIT: - - snip snip.. for those that seen my pic here, I hadn't realize
how much the pic was causing so much scrolling Lf/Rt, and it made me a bit
sea-sick, so I edited out :) Sorry guys, if I inconvienced you all.

Thanks for understanding..

Well, like I said, the predictRuler is a work in progress, but I had a whole
LOT of trouble getting vcalc to finally match that of MStaker's.. off by maybe a few .01's if that. Anyways.. ben up all night this weekend working at it :hammer:

I can't wait to get my predictRuler working (if ever) I work VERY slowly,
cause I'm :screwy: and :confused: w/ just about everything.

Well, see you all later, :zzzsleep:

Yepper' Just like I said above..BIG fingers.......it is Hang'em High.....just had my right eye fixed...the left is in a month and then the fingers.........gonna try to see if they have a way of makin' em smaller

CQMatic-1.1.0.7
Doing a miniDVD on 2 80 CD's.

99 minutes, 93MB mp2
KDVDfull 5000/300
Optimum Template, nonMA

Used 1303 = (1760 / 8) * 60 * 99

Created m2v 1,257,939

Muxed as DVD with BBMPEG = 1,409,798
Muxed video only = 1,315,970
Muxed audio only = 93,832

As the final maximum size for DVD (715,600 from BBMPEG 700 out) is different
than SVCD (819,000), how will you modify averagebitrate formula for DVD?

What more can I say!
 

This is becoming even more impressive!

Hi nicksteel,

When you say, "bbmpeg 700 out" what exactly are you meaning by this ??

I ask, cause when I burn my samples to DVD w/ bbMPEG, I don't see any
reference to this OUT, you are refereing to, but my MPEG-2's do MUX very
well and play in my dvd player, AD-1500.

Just curious.

Thanks,

Just wanted to join in on the fun

XVID movie

average bitrate from moviestacker-1106
Movie length-90 minutes
min-300 max-2500
wanted size by moviestacker-739,821kb
encoded file size -733,533kb

Difference of 0.85 % :D

CQ from cqmatic was 70.xxxx(forgot to copy)


BTW same avs ran through tok gave me a cq of 66

Just finished Young Frankenstein

Wanted: 712.98Mb
Got: 704.65Mb
Length: 102 minutes
Format: DVD PAL
Avg BR: 971 (taken from MovieStacker)
Min: 300
Max: 2200
Res: 528x576
CQ: 62.68
Audio: 112kbps
Script: latest MA

This was a good result for a PAL dvd. Looking good kwag,

Cheers,

I was referring to the size of the output file you enter. All this was in reference to choosing the correct output file size for the averagebitrate formula. The problem seems to have gone away with later versions of CQMatic, and Kwag is including DVD as well as SVCD in his upcoming bitrate calculator.
