KVCD: Pioneer users amd KVCDx3
 

Hi everyone.

There is no contest that KVCDx3 is amazing quality, but i'm wondering, if someone had success to make the KVCDx3 works out on pioneer.

I have a DV-525, and, i'm trying to do a kvcdx3 as Video-cd Mpeg1, without burinig as SVCD.

I've already tried the settings in FitCD ( use 544X480 3/4 full, small, change blocks overscan ) but still no success.

So, i just wanna know if someone know how can i make a KVCDx3, that fit the hole screen, as mpeg-1, burning as VCD.

Thanks in adv :wink:

I have Pioneer DV343 and the only resolutions I get to work are:

352x240 (288)
704x480 (576)
720x480 (576)

So far I tested a few different resolutions in a 32 lines increment but I had no success :( :(

I have the DV-340 and I have found the following to work with the correct screen size and playback (NTSC):

MPEG1

352x240
704x480
720x480

MPEG2
352x480
480x480
528x480
704X480

I find the image quality is not as high in the higher rezs using Mpeg2 than Mpeg1 but the differences are pretty slight on a tv.

I've used the KVCDx3 template with my pioneer 343 without any changes and it works just fine. You have to burn as an SVCD though (encode in mpeg1 not 2 - just burn as SVCD with VCDeasy).

I did it once using FitCD as Kwag described, but I've also done it without FitCD and it still came out alright.

:D Hi m0rdant

This way you did also works, burning as SVCD, it does a similar process, i've tried to, think that maybe works better than encoding with mpeg-2 and mpeg-1 after, but, in my case i couldn't use cause i have two different standalones, and one of them don't liks SVCD, freezing when you hit PLAY button.
So, because of this problem, i had to do the encoding with mpeg 2 and after mpeg 1, cause it gets more generic, adn acceptable in my material.

C ya :wink:
