Hello,

The bitrate calculator in meGUI calculates a value and feeds it right in the config, but the video turns out to be either really big or smaller than it was calculated to be.

For example, it calculated bitrate for a 1hr24min as 1033 kbps + 128 kbps audio, but the encoded video was at 811 kbps. That is, ~200 kbps less than what it was supposed to be.

Codec ID/Hint : XviD
Duration : 1h 24mn
Bit rate : 811 Kbps
Width : 656 pixels
Height : 272 pixels
Display aspect ratio : 2.40:1
Frame rate : 23.976 fps

Earlier on a friend's PC, the calculator calculated bitrate for a 1/3DVD video, but the resulting file size was 2.23GB or so. I re-encoded with same bitrate thrice, but still same 2.23 size. There are no updates available at the moment as well.

Is this a known bug?

P.S. I think someone had posted this in the troubleshooting thread earlier, but it went unnoticed.
