[Bug 349011] Re: DeVeDe bitrate calculation for DVD iso is incorrect
I tried it, I didn't covert the whole video, instead I only converted 10 percent and then looked at the file size, it was about 200 Mb, if you multiply that by ten to estimate your final file size it's about 2 Gb, meaning the bitrate is still too low. I could try waiting for it to finish but I'm pretty sure it will be a wast of time. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/349011 Title: DeVeDe bitrate calculation for DVD iso is incorrect -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 349011] Re: DeVeDe bitrate calculation for DVD iso is incorrect
I had almost the same problem with my devede on any distributives. After using Adjust disc usage the size bar showed 99%. After finishing encoding DVD i had a size ~3.6-3.8 Gb. Then i started to edit manually video bitrate to have 112-113%. But then i edited file: sudo gedit /usr/lib/devede/devede_other.py there you should edit this block to get the size you want: if 0==active: tamano=170.0 elif 1==active: tamano=700.0 elif 2==active: tamano=750.0 elif 3==active: tamano=1100.0 elif 4==active: tamano=4200.0 = (i have 4600) else: tamano=8000.0 after that compile this file: sudo python -m compileall /usr/lib/devede/devede_other.py And after using Adjust disc usage button you will have full size dvd 4.2-4.4 gb.

[Bug 349011] Re: DeVeDe bitrate calculation for DVD iso is incorrect
I don't know if the developer will see this. The official Devede forum site at Google Groups just has a bunch of spam, so I don't know where else to post. I had this problem with x264-encoded files as well. Devede told me the resulting ISO would nearly fill a DVD, but in fact it only was 1.5 GB in size. I'm wondering whether it might be possible to use mencoder to determine the bitrate of each source file and use that to calculate the expected size of the output file. Unfortunately, some containers don't include the bitrates; mplayer routinely reports these files as having a bit rate of zero. However,; they can be determined using mencoder like this: mencoder file.mkv -ovc copy -nosound -o /dev/null -endpos 120 This command plays the first 120 seconds of the file into /dev/null then writes a summary like this: Video stream: 1875.306 kbit/s (234413 B/s) size: 28139352 bytes 120.042 secs 2881 frames Could this approach improve the size estimation process? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/349011 Title: DeVeDe bitrate calculation for DVD iso is incorrect -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 349011] Re: DeVeDe bitrate calculation for DVD iso is incorrect
I understand the reason for not fixing this. Personally just ignore the adjust disk usage button and guesstimate how many episodes of whatever will fit. If 2 episodes of a hi-def WW2 blockbuster results in a 3.1GB ISO then 3 episodes (161%) might just about fit 4.7gb but do you know what, life's to short. IME a 13 part series of standard res 'hour' long shows fits on to 4 DVDs. I only have images of one series to hand: the 3 episode images were 3.3, 3.4 and 3.5 Gb; the 4 episode image was only 3.7Gb. -- DeVeDe bitrate calculation for DVD iso is incorrect https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/349011 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 349011] Re: DeVeDe bitrate calculation for DVD iso is incorrect
Hi all: I'm the creator of DeVeDe. I'll copy the question and answer 8 from the FAQ: #8 I adjust the bitrate to use the 100%, but the final size is smaller. Unfortunately is impossible to accurately predict the disk's final size, because you specify a bitrate, but Mencoder can decide to use an smaller value in certain parts if it can compress it more without quality loss (like in very static scenes). That means that the final size can be smaller than the estimation made by DeVeDe, but never bigger. Currently, DeVeDe estimates the final size with the formula: FinalSize = (Video_bitrate + Audio_bitrate) * lenght_in_seconds Unfortunately, Mencoder sometimes uses less bitrate than the specified. I suspect that this happens mainly in already compressed sources (like ones in DivX or Xvid), because mencoder can keep the final quality without loosing more quality. I asked Mencoder creators for another way of stimating the final size, but they answered that there is no alternative: the current method is the only one. You can't predict where Mencoder will be able to use less bits per second without already compressing the videos.

I can also confirm this error/bug. I have created a couple discs that are almost 100% according to the disc usage bar, but in reality after making the disc it's usually around 2GB. Other times I have made a disc that is around 60% according to the disc usage bar, but these also come out ~2GB also. Not sure where the bug is, but i think the usage bar only partially works.
