No conflict at all. -E processing is done after the quantization tables have been used. > If not, does it make sense from a logical p.o.v. to use them both? Makes a lot of sense. -E goes thru the output of the quantization process to make it more efficient to encode. > Does -H override -K, or the other way 'round? Well, yes. "-K hi-res" is the same as "-H" though so I'm not sure why you'd want to use both :) You can, if you wish, create your own custom matrices and use them with "-K file=path_to_your_file". Thus you can take the intra (I frame) table from the hi-resolution side and combine that with the non-Intra (B/P frame) table of TMPGEnc. I've attached the custom file where I did just that. The I frames end up being bigger (but there are only on average 2 of those per second) but the P/B frames become smaller. Overall the image looked very good (but not having done double blind testing against a default encoding that's not saying a lot ;)). Cheers, Steven Schultz
