Has anyone else noticed that the -Q parameter to mpeg2enc v 1.6.1.90 seems to have much less effect than it did in version 1.6.1? I've got one pair of encodes (same capture file input to both) that I ran yesterday where using -Q 0.0 and -Q 4.0 resulted in exactly the same size encoded file. Under 1.6.0, adjusting the -Q factor would result in differing file sizes and it could be used as a "fine tuning" of file sizes in between the somewhat large jumps that a modification of the -q factor causes. With 1.90, -Q does not seem to have the same sort of effect, and I'm giving the encoder otherwise identical parameters.
The reason I'd gotten to use the -Q factor for "fine tuning" is to hit close to a particular resultant file size (for storage of multiple videos on a DVD) and -Q worked well to fine tune the encoded file to be close to the size I wanted. ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Mjpeg-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/mjpeg-users
