Wrong File Size

[maddog666]

Hey,

For a long time I've been trying to get the correct file size with Gordian Knot. I did all the DIVX 5 tutorial on doom9 step by step, but it still get wrong. I want 140 mb files for each friends episode, so they all get 700 mb (1 dvd, 20 min each). I set as 140, calculate audio at 128 kbits, put everything correct and size always go to 175.353 mb .. any idea ?

Thanks

Hi-

Are you allowing GKnot to recalculate the bit rate when setting up the encoding?

You're putting 5 episodes on a CD? That's kind of a lot unless using a very low resolution. Have you done a Compress Test on one of them?

I've actually done Friends Season 1-6. On the seasons with 24 episodes I used 4 CDs with 6 episodes on each, the ones with 25 I used 5 CDs with 5 episodes on each. This is something I regret now, if I'd do it again I'd use 1 or 2 CD's more instead. Frieds are quite hard to compress since there are very bright colors and fullscreen.

post *_gknot.log and the last line of analyze.log (use a good editor like ultraedit to open that).
