hy!
i do re-encoding of mpeg2 pvr-250 pal tv captures, before with xvid, now with x264+megui. i use megui and would like to know what you think of my settings. i am quite satisfied with the result, but do you have any ideas of what to do better, what i do wrong etc? the file sizes turn out really good, from 800mb for a noise-less movie to 2,3gb for doktor sziwago, with xvid i usually used 2gb per movie, so thats good. thanx!!
recordings are from analog cable, using pvr-250, vbr 8200kbps (max 12000kbps), as much filtering applied as it needs not to block.
i go for max resolution. constant quantizer 20 (19.x would be nice, but how to enter in megui?)
here is the avs-script, that i vary because of different noise levels in different recordings. this is doctor sziwago:
mpeg2source("xyz.d2v",cpu=1)
LoadPlugin("C:\PROGRA~1\AutoGK\filters\RemoveGrain.dll")
ColorMatrix()
crop( 12, 116, -10, -124)
LanczosResize(688,288) # Lanczos (Sharp)
mergechroma(blur(1.3)) # Little Noise -> this two lines i used for heavy denoising of "doktor sziwago", usually i use one removegrain,mode2
RemoveGrain(mode=2)
