Solution for Muxman error "excessive bitrate"

[EuropeanMan]

Can someone PLEASE help me out...

I've done Muxman a few times to the above error...happens almost immediately after I click start. :(

IFO edit says "too many frame drops"

ReJig stops working & crashes out shortly before the subtitles are finished muxing...

:(

I don't WANT to have to re-encode this CCE again.

What setting are you using to encode?

[EuropeanMan]

7375 for bitrate (because I want a DVD9 size) in CCE

m/n 4
avamat matrix
3 pass VBR
25fps
720x480 / 16/9
length of film ~126mins
8blockPrec.
prog frame
23 for quant, zigzag

{afterwards used DGpulldown to 29.970}
audio is 448kbps AC3 / 403MB

video.m2v is 6.65GB

4 subpictures for a total ~ 9.4MB

Your encoding BR is too high and way too much anyway.

Drop it to 6,000.

crap :( thanks...

can you please tell me WHY it would be too high?

[blutach]

Gee, most commercial movies are only encoded at up to 6,000 VBR. You can't see any different. And there's a maximumat which the decoder can take it. muxman is telling you this.
