Hi Zyphon,
Forget Incredible post
.
He's got the same problem I do: we both fell in love with mencoder
Actually he's right about it but I'll cut you some slack and give you some hints on FFdshow/FFvfw
-Open "VFW Configuration" from Start>Programs>ffdshow.
-In the encoder tab you'll find a scroll box where you can find and choose "MPEG 2 | libavcodec".
-In the FOURCC scroll box find and choose "MPG2".
-On the left pan of the screen you'll find a configuration elements tree.
-Click on Quantization; a new screen appears; "Quantization type" scroll box; choose "MPEG - Custom tables"
-Move on to Custom tables at the configuration elements tree; a new screen appears
-There is now a "Load Matrix" enabled button.
-Browse for the notch matrix file after pressing it.
From this point onwards you have the Notch loaded. You can now move on with Kwags and others recomendations for FFVFW.
Or you can follow Inc.'s and my advise: try Mencoder or Mencode-Me.
You'll love it
Cheers buddy
