Yes, its starts in the same place. If I reburn the .iso file, it starts in the same place. If I remove the .iso file and iso directory and start at the dvdauthor step, the problem starts in the same place. I re-transcoded the first program that showed this problem. I used a higher maximum bitrate, thinking that was the problem. The artifacts started a minute or two later. > > does mplex complain about buffer underruns? (are > you sure it is using > the correct vbr buffer size?) I'm using tcmplex. I just reran the tcmplex step and captured the output in a file. The ONLY mention of buffer is: Vbf buffer size : 229376 bytes Here's the summary info for the video portion: INFO: Found 160828 picture headers, stream bit offset 12008418328.
