Hi Roland Have a look at the latest version of indytube released for plumi 0.2.x http://plumi.org/browser/indytube/tags/plumi-0.2.3-rc3 in particular the latest example conf http://plumi.org/browser/indytube/tags/plumi-0.2.3-rc3/indytube.conf
the mencoder options in particular, are: # for newer versions of MEncoder, we dont need the "lavfopts" line above, plus we add in a higher bitrate, and a sync option MENCODER_OPTIONS=-really-quiet -of lavf -oac mp3lame -lameopts abr:br=64 -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=flv:keyint=25:vbitrate=260:mbd=2:mv0:trell:v4mv:cbp:last_pred=3 -vf harddup,expand=:::::4/3,scale=320:240 -srate 22050 -ofps 25 -mc 0/10 --- Notice that in the example indytube conf, the vbitrate param to the vcodec param (sent to mencoder) got lifted to 260, from 150. You can make it what you like to adjust the size/quality trade-off, and also for instance, you could change the "320:240" scaling if you like - you would just need to make the same weight/height corresponding change in the flowplayer template. Also, as mentioned in the indytube.conf at the above link, at some version MEncoder stopped supporting the "i_certify_that_my_video_stream_does_not_use_b_frames" flag and wont transcode files if its used. Upgrading MEncoder to the latest version should work easily though. cheers andy On Fri, 2009-05-08 at 13:38 +0200, roland fasching wrote: > hi! > > i am running the www.screensessions.com website and the project runs > great for more than one year. > the only complaints we receive targets to video quality. > is there a way to improve it? > > thank you! > > roland > --- > > my indytube.conf: > > [encoder] > BE_HOW_NICE=18 > CONVERT_THESE > =['.avi','.qt','.mov','.mpeg','.mp4','.mpg','.asf','.wmv','.3gp'] > DO_ENCODING=True > NUMBER_OF_PARALLEL_ENCODERS=20 > ENCODER_LOCKFILE_BASE=/var/lib/zope29/screensessions/Products/indytube/ > plumidemo-encoder.lock > POLLTIME=60 > > [mencoder] > MENCODER_LOCATION=/usr/bin/mencoder > MENCODER_OPTIONS=-really-quiet -of lavf -lavfopts > i_certify_that_my_video_stream_does_not_use_b_frames -oac mp3lame - > lameopts abr:br=56 -ovc lavc -lavcopts > vcodec=flv:keyint=50:vbitrate=150:mbd=2:mv0:trell:v4mv:cbp:last_pred=3 > -vf scale=425:344 -srate 22050 > > [ffmpeg2theora] > CORTADO_LOCATION=http://demo.plumi.org/flowplayer/cortado-ovt-debug-0.2.2.jar > FFMPEG2THEORA_COMMAND=ffmpeg2theora > > [flvtool2] > FLVTOOL_LOCATION=/usr/bin/flvtool2 > > [paths] > VIDEO_FILE_DIRECTORY=/var/lib/zope29/screensessions/var/files/Members > FLV_FILE_DIRECTORY=/var/lib/zope29/screensessions/static/flv-files > INCLUDE_FILE_DIRECTORY=/var/lib/zope29/screensessions/var/files/Members > INCLUDE_FILE_SUFFIX=.flv.inc > INCLUDE_TEMPLATE=/var/lib/zope29/screensessions/Products/indytube/ > screensessions.template > > [urls] > FLOWPLAYER_LOCATION=http://www.screensessions.com/static/FlowPlayerWhite.swf > VIDEO_SERVER_URL=http://flv.screensessions.com > SPLASH_IMAGE_BASE=http://www.screensessions.com/static > SPLASH_IMAGE_FILE=play-button-328x240.jpg > > [logging] > LOG_FILE=/var/lib/zope29/screensessions/Products/indytube/plumi- > wetube.log > LOG_LEVEL=logging.INFO > > > _______________________________________________ > Discuss mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.plumi.org/listinfo/discuss --
