Hi
I have encoded many Divx-SVCD-DVD or Divx-DVD directly but what i have alwayz noticed is that the picture never smoothly moves like dvd. i know that u cannot completly get rid of pixelization when converting. but what iam curious about is that why doesnt the svcds/dvds made from divx file play/move smoothly. just like the original vcds.

Btw i use CCE, TMPGENc via DVD2SVCD. generally on VBR data control.

mostly depends on the input/output screen resolution. If you have a 512x384 avi and convert to 720x480 dvd your video will pixelate drasticly, whereas a conversion from 640 x 480 to 720 x 480 will look better.

to get rid of this problem all together your best bet is to buy a ~60$ divx/xvid/mpeg-4 dvd player and burn avis directly to dvd without encoding. I bought a toshiba and it was the best 55 dollars i ever spent, it even subtitles for those hard to hearing types.

BTW vcds dont really pixelate because they use a lower screen resolution (352x240, 352x480, or in the case of svcd -480 x 480)

And in that case you are still cheating yourself of quality.

iam not worried about pixelization. its about the free/smooth movement as the movie progresses

Actually you can almost completely get rid of pixellization when converting if you use a high enough bitrate. One thing you didn't mention, though, is the framerate of your end files. If you're ending up with 29.97 FPS it's going to pan jerky because some of the frames are repeated.

ru sure its the framerate

To author i use DVD-Lab, so when i use my encoded videos in DVDlab it first demux them and then for some reason they become 29.97 FPS, but originally they are 23
