Hallo > Hi all. I'm creating my first SVCD (30 minutes).

Maybe the pixels for a normal PAL SVCD are 480x576. When you multiplex the audio and video you should get something like that: ... INFO: [mplex] Frame width : 480 INFO: [mplex] Frame height : 576 INFO: [mplex] Aspect ratio : 4:3 display INFO: [mplex] Picture rate : 25.000 frames/sec INFO: [mplex] Bit rate : 2500000 bits/sec ...
When you play it back with yuvscaler you should see some lines like that: .... VIDEO: MPEG2 480x576 (aspect 2) 25.00 fps 3125.0 kbps (390.6 kbyte/s) .... Movie-Aspect is 1.33:1 - prescaling to correct movie aspect. VO: [xv] 480x576 => 768x576 Planar YV12 ---END--- > I've yet to burn it (I'll need to go to a friends place to test it on > his DVD player (plays SVCD also)). > > Also, is it normal for a 30 minute recoding to take about 12 hours for > mpeg2enc to process? Depends on the CPU cand commands you use. A long time ago (2 1/2 years ago) it was fast if you could encode on a Athlon 500, one minute of video in 50 minutes without denoising. auf hoffentlich bald, Berni the Chaos of Woodquarter Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] www: http://www.lysator.liu.se/~gz/bernhard ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: SourceForge Enterprise Edition + IBM + LinuxWorld = Something 2 See! http://www.vasoftware.com _______________________________________________ Mjpeg-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/mjpeg-users
