View Full Version : AutoGK Suggestion - Show Quantizer

I have been using AutoGK for several years now. Rather than showing what the "Target Quality" is I would prefer that you show the quantizer value.

Who would think that 60% is poor, 67% is good and 75% is very good and 80% is excellent?

Also when you pick 67% you don't really get the popular quantizer of 3 your get 2.97...how does the codec respond to that?

How about a combo box labeled "Quantizer" that has these entries for XviD

>2.0-Excellent
>2.5-Very Good
>3.0-Good
>3.5-Fair
>4.0-Poor
>5.0
>6.0
>7.0
>8.0
>10.0
>12.0

And these for DivX...

>3.0-Excellent
>3.5-Very Good
>4.0-Good
>4.5-Fair
>5.0-Poor
>6.0
>7.0
>8.0
>10.0
>12.0

Was this such a silly idea that no one thought to respond?

Hi,

Not at all for me but I thought your wanted Len0x to answer.

So, I don't encode 1 pass, except for tests.
For 2 passes if you want your grid to be usable I encode (average Q) between Q3 to Q4, Q4 being better than poor maybe "Average" ?
Q 4.5 to Q5 being poor;
Q3 being Good is Ok for me.

I don't use divx so other opinions wanted :D

It could help to give correspondance ex:
Q3 (+-67%) - Good
