Can anyone point me at a source of information on calculating bitrates for transcoding to svcd with mjpeg tools. Or even a calculator that runs under linux. At present I transcode my captured video with a best guess bitrate and then modify the bitrate accordingly to fit it on 1 or more 80 min cd-r's.
My attempts so far result in bitrates that don't work in the real world. Guess the formulas I constructed are based on insufficient/inaccurate/not fully grocked data. -oOo- Not that it's relevant: Capture is with either lavrecord from a buz or, more recently, using a digital8 camcorder to transcode analogue to video and dvgrab. All that talk about Canopus boxes made me jealous so I figured out that my camcorder ought to be able to do the same and with a little play it did. I'm keeping the buz in my machine for now but the quality and rock solid reliability means I'm using dv almost exclusively. Thanks, Michael. ------------------------------------------------------- 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
