Hello all,
Those of you who attended my lecture about DVD authoring may recall that
I mentioned a "bug" in the encoder, which causes green boxes to appear
on the screen when played on my DVD player. I asked about this in the
mencoder-user mailing list a couple of weeks ago. The answer came only
recently, out of the blue, as follows:
Michael Niedermayer wrote:
does it work with vstrict >= 0 ? (this is absolutely required anyway for
anything
standards compliant)
So there we have it: Just say vstrict=1, and those green boxes are
history! (I tried it, of course)
After all, this wasn't a bug, just a detail missing in the docs (I'm
telling the mplayer guys, of course).
I've updated my slides at http://haifux.org/lectures/151/ to reflect
this, so they don't complain about the "bug" anymore, but are written as
if I knew about this beforehand. The example use of mencoder was
corrected, of course.
So now nothing stands in the way of making good DVDs of our own videos!
Eli
