Hi, I have a problem when transcoding xvid movies, that sometimes strange artifacts appear in the resulting movies that did not exist in the original. I use the following commands:
> transcode -r 2,1 -i clip.avi -R 1,clip.log -w 600 -o /dev/null \ -b 96 -y xvid4 -Q 5 -e 44100,16,2 -M 1 >run1.log 2>&1 > transcode -r 2,1 -i clip.avi -R 2,clip.log -w 600 -o result.avi \ -b 96 -y xvid4 -Q 5 -e 44100,16,2 -M 1 >run2.log 2>&1 Beginning at frame 2186 there are some artifacts in the result.avi: http://www.bartelmus.de/transcode/result_2186.jpg The involved files can be found here: http://www.bartelmus.de/transcode/clip.avi http://www.bartelmus.de/transcode/clip.log http://www.bartelmus.de/transcode/run1.log http://www.bartelmus.de/transcode/run2.log http://www.bartelmus.de/transcode/result.avi In the terminal output I can see the following: encoding frames [000000-002176], 76.75 fps, EMT: 0:01:27, ( 0| 0| 6) [mpeg4 @ 0xb5bb0ba8]slice end not reached but screenspace end (-8 left 052FFC, score= -2185) [mpeg4 @ 0xb5bb0ba8]concealing 864 DC, 864 AC, 864 MV errors encoding frames [000000-002177], 76.70 fps, EMT: 0:01:27, ( 0| 0| 9) I don't know if this is related or only there by coincidence. I'm using v1.0.2 on Debian Etch. The binaries come from debian- multimedia.org. Any pointers? Cheers, Christoph
