Note that if this difficult clip had been part of a longer sequence, with both easier and harder sections, the VBR would have made this hard section look better. Quote:

1) Post-processing is built into the codec and has nothing to do with the actual Realone Player 2) Post-processing is not built into the codec and is the doing of the Realone Player --- it just can't be adjusted or tuned at all. |

.
by the way: good to hear that it is just the post-processing. It would be really awesome if you could change the levels of post-processing, perhaps have 6 or so levels, and the lowest level would turn off post-processing. maybe something like how ffdshow's post-processing format is set up? maybe have the 6 levels as presets for beginners, and then have an "advanced" button or whatever where people that want to go further into it can fine tune the post-processing from all angles... and maybe have an "auto detect" mode or whatever, where the player will try detecting the *best* level of post-processing for a particular clip (kinda like how it is now?)

also, the post-processing for that little test clip I encoded is WAY too much for my tastes.. I would rather see a few blocks and maybe some noise than anything that blurry and soft. Sometimes there are clips like that that need to be encoded, and that do not have the benefit of "easy" parts to the sequence. that is why I tihnk makign the post-processing configurable would really make a big difference and really start shit up in the video compression community |

I will be far away from Seattle until Dec 30th. I will be online once in a while, but can't promise any long and detailed posts. Happy Holidays to everyone!

hi,
i will try to add the support of the .avi file for input. it normaly will add the joblist on the v1.3 for anamorphic and besweet i am not sure , i must find documentation. and for the yv12 input i will wait producer add the support because for the moment only yuy2 was supported. normaly added in v1.3 : - compressibility test - besweet more options. - job list. - internal subtitle (perhaps yv12 support) -fix bug : italic in subtitle, 4/3 smil file) . Bye

dark-cracker, your tool rules!! keep up the good work!
only one thing: auto-crop never works for me.. it always cuts out too much into the picture, or completely misses the black bars. but I can just do a manual crop and be okay. |

I'm a noob to encoding and while browsing realnetwork's home page about real video 9, I came upon a very important info; "Same quality at half the bitrate of mpeg-4". When using gknot, there is an option displaying your average bitrate when you select either the divx3 or divx5 codec in the codec area. For example, let's say my average bitrate is 1608 kbit/s, does that mean when entering my average bitrate into the helix producer 804kbit/s and I'll still get the same quality?????

But, i've done encoding myself and have seen compairison clips of xvid vs rv9 (both at same bitrate) and the rv9 clip was very obviously the better clip. Edit: Oh yea, don't forget, at the present time rv9 is the only one that can do anamorphic encoding. hehe Last edited by 31 Flavas; 23rd December 2002 at 09:17. |

The fact is, RV9 is definetaly better at low bitrates, but it is incapable to give dvd quality. It smooths out the details even in 2cd rips. |

and mpeg2 doesn't smooth?
have you ever compared nice clean PAL tv signal with mpeg2 as seen in dvd player? and you still take mpeg2 as a reference? i regard dvd (mpeg2 stream) as less sharp than analog PAL.......(yes i have seen quite a few decent dvd players in action...) EVERY and ANY codec smooths.......that's why it's called lossy compression.....(mpeg1,2,4 or rm...) (sure,i would love to burn and watch my huff capturings...but..) at the bitrate,rm9 is THE BEST,ie. try to make decent(!) mpeg2 on 2 cdr's for 2h movie....... |

This is all about target audiences. Realvideo has been created for streaming. Why would anybody want to stream at 1500-2000 kbit? It was optimized to <500-600 kbit, and it is very good at there. |
