I cannot see how that should make a difference. >> I am using 0.6.0 from ppa:kxstudio-team/ppa and ffmpeg I am using 0.6.1 from source on KXStudio and the ffmpeg version it installs (0.6-2ubuntu6.2) >> libavcodec-extra-52 libavdevice-extra-52 libavfilter-extra-1 >> libavformat-extra-52 libavutil-extra-50 libpostproc-extra-51 from >> packages.medibuntu.org >> [...] > > Oh yeah, and here is the command > > > melt -progress -profile square_pal welcome.mlt -consumer > avformat:welcome.flv progressive=1 acodec=libfaac ab=96k ar=44100 > vcodec=libx264 -b=240k vpre=/usr/share/ffmpeg/libx264-hq.ffpreset should be b=240k, but at least your vpre is still picked up.. > > /usr/share/ffmpeg/libx264-hq.ffpreset: [ ref=1, coder=1, flags=+loop, > cmp=+chroma, partitions=+parti8x8+parti4x4+partp8x8+partb8x8, > me_method=umh, subq=8, me_range=16, g=250, keyint_min=25, > sc_threshold=40, i_qfactor=0.71, b_strategy=2, qcomp=0.6, qmin=10, > qmax=51, qdiff=4, bf=3, refs=4, directpred=3, trellis=1, > flags2=+wpred+mixed_refs+dct8x8+fastpskip, wpredp=2 ] I did not reproduce the problem.
