GKnot vs. VirtualDub & VFAPI

busted123 · 22nd December 2001, 11:02

Which method gives the best result:

GordianKnot or VirtualDub & VFAPI?

Is there any big difference between them?

I tried them both and I think the result look the same.

I hope someone can give me an answer.

Thanks

the quality difference between ALL rather good DVD->AVI solutions should be so small that you won't notice. The major difference is speed. The Gordian Knot way is the fastest.

GordianKnot for DivX 4 IS VIRTUALDUB & VFAPI!

It is?
When I read the DivX4 Codec guides on doom9's page they seem to be different.

Wrong. GordianKnot always uses AviSynth as frame server. It uses VirtualDub for DivX4 encoding and Nandub for DivX3.11 encoding. So you were at least half on the right way ( DivX4 -> VDub ), but GordianKnot doesn't use VFAPI.

You're correct, shame on me
