i have very improtant question:
i already re-encoded and compressed DVD-9 to a divx or xvid file(s) (for divx player) and they almost-perfect copies of original DVD, which i lost. But now i only have my divx files (which are XLNT qualities to begin with), and with intentions of making my own personal DVD movie with menus, I have already converted to DVD format and authored them to DVD -ready-to-burn. At this point they are same quality b'c i convert not re-encode. But movies has bigger sizes now and I need to re-compress before I finally burn. Should I transcode to shrink it or re-re-encode to shrink it?
Here is easy summary:
1.) I re-encoded and compressed DVD-9 to DiVX/XVID format (THey are XLNT qaulaity BTW)
2.) I converted, NOT re-encode, to DVD format
3.) Now with bigger size, should I transcode or re-re-encode at all? :confused:
My compresstion ratios are never down to 50% range, very rarily 60% range, sometimes 90% range, often 70-89% range. I need good time and great quality. Wathcing on widescreen TVs. Oh, I have a P2 Celeron 1.2GHz w/ 768mb ram:D Thank you.
