How to use Xvids B-Frames?

[biersauf]

HeY!

is there any way to use xvids bframes using transcode/mencoder ??? i saw a bframes decode option in those compiling stuff, but whats about encoding?

[biersauf]

ok, i got it. you cannot use bframes until you dont know the command. now, anybody knows this command?

this here is a snapshot from /usr/local/lib/transcode/xvid.cfg:
##############################################################################
# Addendum : you can also configure bframes here when building an
# export_xvidcvs bframe "aware". I don't show the paremeters here
# because B Frames are still beta and I don't want XviD being
# flooded by bframes test feedback yet (except bugs).

usinng mencoder is NOT possible to use bframe and other development stuff like gmc. i'have tweaked the mencoder files to use it with the new api.. but i don't know if it work fine.. i only test it on my pc.. but 2nd pass with lumi masking make it crash, and other options to...

nad gmc, and bframe together make the video not too beautifull to se....

today is out mplayer 0.9 rc1 .. after i have make my file work with it.. if you want i can put it online=)

make me know if you want try it=)

oh, yes, upload it please!!!!

is it a script or what is it? i think i have to update my mplayer, my version is just 0.9pre10

uhem, btw: how do you encode xvid using mencoder???? i think its sth. like this:

mencoder <input> -nosound -ovc divx4 (cause man mencoder said, 'divx4' is for divx4/divx5 AND xvid) -xvidencopts br=<value> -o <filename>

and thats what happens:

xvidencopts in not an MEncoder option


wow. why am i wrong?

[elcabesa]

'couse docs are little outdated =(

mencoder -dvd 1 -oac mp3lame -lameopts br=128:vbr=3 -ovc xvid -xvidencopts br=1370:quality=6 -vop scale=640:272,crop=710:420:6:78 -sws 2 -o prova.avi

this work for me=)

yuo neede to specific

-ovc xvid and it will work=)

Do lumi masking, gmc, bframes, qpel work on 1 pass / fixed quant?

It is known, that the xvid-vbr lib 2pass code do not work with the new features. That's the reason, why mplayer do not support xvid-devel.

But on 1pass / fixed quant all features should work. Could you test that?

-ovc xvid wont work for me :( it just say, xvidencopts is not an mencoder option :(

[elcabesa]

ok. maybe my error makeing the mencoder command line..
today i'll try and i'll tell you the right command=)

[elcabesa]

i'have check the command line and it seems to be right...

when you do ./configure for mplayer does it report that it has xvid enabled?check it=)
if not it won't understood -ovc xvid =)

[biersauf]

i tried "./configure --with-xvidcore=/usr/local/lib/libxvidcore.a", but it wont run.

[elcabesa]

download mplayer rc1 src
xvid src form site...

compile xvid with make -f Makefile.linux
anbd then make install

./configure --enable-gui
make
make install

You have to use the command "uudecode" which is in the same package than "uudecode"
