Achieving the best quality videos

[Seraphic-]

Hi,

I'm interested in some suggestions on how to achieve the best possible quality encode when using RealVideo 10 at a bit-rate of 1,250 to 1,500.

I've done a lot of testing with RealProdcuer and found that videos encoded using quality download (70% or 80%) audiences seem to look better then videos encoded using normal vbr audiences at the same bit-rate or slightly higher. However, when I use quality download I get big frame drop issues in the final video that I can't seem to fix. I guess this could be due to the max bit-rate but I have the same issue when using "100% quality download" and that has a max bit-rate of 10,000. I should also point out that target average bit-rate videos don't drop frames no matter what the bit-rate is set to.


Also, Sirber, I have a question for you.

Am I correct to say that RealAnime 3.20 doesn't support video with PCM audio and doesn't allow for export as .rmvb container?

It didn't seem to when I changed around the settings and then tried to import a test video and export another test video.

Thanks

I apologize, I didn't word that right. What I meant and what I was asking for was suggestions on settings I could try in RealProdcuer and RealAnime.

i use easy real media producer.....

i use the setting of 450kbps - 900kbps vbr. and the option encode all frames in the settings. i always end with good quality when i encode HDTV rips.

That "encode all frames" option seems to fix my issue with dropped frames when encoding using target quality. Thanks for suggesting this.

target quality does not drop frames...
