View Full Version : Why is DivX 6.2.5 much slower than v6.2.2?

I installed DivX v6.2.5 codec today, V6.2.5 was encording about 2 times slower than V6.2.2 under the same settings with v6.2.2.

settings were insane quality, de-inter, 1st-pass

Why is V6.2.5 slower? or is it just me?

Jeez... if you selected insane quality why do you care about speed?

It definately should not be - give me your CLI string from the settings tab so I can see your exact settings. Also give me your CPU brand/model.

Update: I have a lead on this, if it's what I think it is we could have a patch out later today.

< CLI >

DivX V6.2.2
-bv1 1000000 -vbv 4854000,3145728,2359296 -r 640,480,1 -pre 4 -dir "C:\Program Files\DivX\DivX" -b 1 -nf -use_presets=1 -preset=10 -profile=3 -deinterlace=1

DivX V6.2.5
-bv1 1000000 -vbv 4854000,3145728,2359296 -r 640,480,1 -pre 4 -dir "C:\Program Files\DivX\DivX" -b 1 -nf -use_presets=1 -preset=10 -profile=3 -deinterlace=1

Exactly the same.

I use #1 DVD ripper to encode.

I have Pentium-4 3Ghz, Asus p4p800SE

Under the #1 DVD ripper, I use Divx 6.2.2 two-logical CPU's. And I use SSE2 optimization but I never noticed the quality difference as well as speed. But i keep the SSE2 setting just in case.

< Under 6.2.2 setting >
Insane quality, 1st pass, 1000kbps, de-interlaced, Extreme-noise reduction, H263 quantization optimized ---> all results in 12 to 13 fps (frames per second).

< Under 6.2.5 setting >
Encording preset is 10,
Insane quality, 1st pass, 1000kbps, de-interlaced, Extreme-noise reduction, H263 quantization optimized ---> all results in 6.5 fps (frames per second).

I don't mind 12 fps, but 6.5 fps is uneasy for me.
Now, I gave up using on 6.2.5, I am going back to use 6.2.2 now.

My comment on v6.2.5, Encoding setting 10 uses 2-pass regardless of its saying 1st-pass.


By the way:
I only installed, 6.2.5 codec and DivX YV12 pass through, the rest is just to me, for DivX player for a computer.

I rebooted my computer once or twice before I tried the newly installed codec whether it was 6.2.2 or 6.2.5

Maybe I will uninstall the 6.2.2 completely before install 6.2.5 and hunt all the DivX related registry and do some damage

Thanks,

Looks like a resize issue. We've fixed it an I'm hoping to get new binaries up on the website in a couple of hours. The new encoder should be build 6.2.5.17 (can be seen from the 'About' box of the VFW codec).

We still wait for update patch from 6.22 Pro to 6.25.17 Pro?

I would recommend getting a better connection if the size hurts you. even at that size it'll only take about 20 mins to download. I remember the days of 28.8, it may not be fun but you just deal with it.

Some people not only have slow connections, they pay-per-packet. Please keep in mind that this is a global forum, and that not everyone has the same number of network options, nor similar cost structures.

Hi guys,

Sorry but I got sick yesterday and couldn't go to work. I'll do my best to get you a patch on Monday.
