I have Mandriva Linux 2008.0 x86_64 PowerPack on a Dell Inspiron 1720 notebook with Cinelerra from the Penguin Liberation Front cinelerra-2.1-1.svn1008.1plf2008.0 with mjpegtools-1.9.0-0.rc2.3mdv2008.0.x86_64.rpm
I want to render an mpeg-2 movie from my JVC Everio GZ-MG505 harddisk camcorder to a format for DVD. I follow exactly the manual of Cinelerra CV version 2.1: 20.9 Making a DVD 20.9.1 Rendering to mpeg2 20.9.1.1 yuv4mpeg pipe through mpeg2enc Copy in '~/cine_render.sh file' the following lines: #/bin/bash mpeg2enc -v 0 -K tmpgenc -r 16 -4 1 -2 1 -D 10 -E 10 -g 15 -G 15 -q 6 -b 8600 -f 8 -o $1 I added -M 3 to improve performance on my Core 2 Duo T7300 processor. I played with -q (3 and 8) and -b (11000) parameters after reading the manpage of mpeg2enc. The problem: there are horizontal artifacts in the rendered mpeg in a certain scene, and also already in the compositor window. I can describe it as a horizontal line with the image below the line not corresponding to the image on top of the line. No block but line artifacts that are very disturbing. I have put some sample images from the compositor window on http://users.skynet.be/fa991376/. And a fragment created with Avidemux of the original mpg from my Everio camcorder, for those who want to try it in their Cinelerra. Did someone struggle with the same and found a solution? Thanks.
