No software problem: - Near def. encoding problem or source vid encoding problem get back to the source vid and reencode or try other vids with your existing script to elliminate problems.

I can't see all of the details of how the video is encoded (FLV MetaData
Viewer has a bug that keeps it from displaying some .flv file's data) but
this is what I can see in FLV Player:



Dimensions:  694 x 440
Framerate: 25fps

Audio codec ID: 2 (which means it's an MP3)
Audio datarate:  96 kbits/s
(also the audio sounds stereo to me...)

Video codec ID: 4 (which means it's On2 VP6)
Video datarate:  400 kbits/s



The main "issue" that's likely causing the stuttering is the constant
motion
throught the frame area.  In my own video work I've been able to reduce
that
by bumping up the keyframe rate, but that of course will increase the file
size and probably the workload on someone's CPU when it's played.

I'd experiment with reducing the frame rate to something like 15 fps, give
it a keyframe rate of one every 5 frames, convert the audio to mono and try
tweaking the datarates of the video and the audio to get a good balance of
visual quality and CPU bandwidth use.  If your encoder software lets you
set
how many passes it makes during video encoding you can set it to use two
passes, which can improve visual quality at lower video datarates.

I hope that helps... ^_^




(ps:  That's a delightful looking home. :D)

It's not that bad. I think the fact that there are a lot of hard edes and
contiuous movement that any faults are more obvious.

The stuttering was occuring as the video was playing and the file had not
yet fully loaded (though was not halted to fill the buffer).

The strange lines you mention appear to be the video player trying to keep
up with the display.

Despite all this, I think the quality isn't too bad.

I'd try out a few variations on the encoding to see if that helps.

I don't think I've ever tried to play such a large video on my laptop
before. My last video project was 200x150.

Paul

I used 400kbit on a 694x440 movie, with 96kbps audio in stereo, on2vp6.
frame rate same as source, and automatic keyframes.

How does it stutter, as it is buffering and than resumes - or does the
video
has strange "lines" appearing like it
the video doesnt perform well.

I think it is very strange, and I cant understand that I havent heard about
this issue before!


2008/7/3 Paul Andrews <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

What settings did you give the encoder - maybe your bitrate is too high.
It
certainly stutters on my machine. Maybe you have too many keyframes.

 I got a quicktime which I have encoded to on2vp6-file with Flash Video
Encoder,
but the flv that is being played is having some flimmering results, as
can
be seen here:
http://www.bjorkelangenpark.no/innredning.html


The quicktime is not having this issue, I dont know how to solve this.
Do
you?

Thanks, Martin
