Hello,

in my program asb, I'm transforming MJpeg files from my Canon camera into
MPEG1 files (because it's the only format I made work on all PCs of my
family out-of-the-box on Mac, Windows and Linux). This worked quite well,
but with my new camera, I have bigger films (640x480 instead of 320x240
and 30fps instead of 15) and I get 'Frame data under-runs detected!' from
mplex.


Here the debug output:


[...]

I understand that it has something to do with the -r parameter of mplex,
but I can't seem to find a good value for it. I went so high that I
reached some overflow value. Any idea/hint on what I should/could change
on my mplex command or even before?

A code snippet to show how I currently come to my values:
 # ID_AUDIO_BITRATE and ID_VIDEO_BITRATE from original AVI/MJPEG file
 my $abr  = $self->{'extra_h'}->{'ID_AUDIO_BITRATE'};
 my $vbr  = $self->{'extra_h'}->{'ID_VIDEO_BITRATE'};
 my $maxvbr = int (2 * ($vbr + $abr) / 1024);
And then:
 transcode [...] --video_max_bitrate $vbr [...]
 mplex [...] -r $maxvbr [...]
(I suspect that video_max_bitrate has no influence as I'm creating MPEG1
files and the man page speaks only about MPEG2, but adding/removing this
parameter doesn't change anything)

Thanks, Eric
