Xvid Files are smaller

[BlumiTheRipper]

I've got a problem. :stupid:
i used to create xvid files with gknot.(DVDRips)
since 2 weeks my files are getting 3mb smaller.
that's not normal. when i set to 2-CD split at 700MB then once file has got 701MB and the other has 692MB.
What can I do to fix this prob.
I set everything as i brother John's Guide.

Here's the script i'm using: (it's the script of a 350MB TV episode which becomes 347MB! I don't had this problems in the past)

Just a note, when posting scripts generated by GK, you can remove all the commented (#) lines... Nobody wants to read those :)

Also the [ code ] [ /code ] (without spaces) function when posting is nice.

It looks to me like the filesize mismatch is coming from when you do the split. The script itself looks perfectly fine. Try splitting the file manually with AviMux GUI...

Hi :thanks:
thanks for your quick reply! But it's not just with 2CD Rips. Also when i encode a tv episode from DVD (f.e. Desperate Housewives).
I use Xvid with Lame (preset medium) and each episode should be 350MB! This worked fine (i got everytime exactly the wanted filesize) but since 3 weeks it mismatches everytime.
350MB ----> 347MB
700MB ----> 698MB
1400MB ---> 1380MB

This are the results i get. I don't know what to do!? I can't imagine why xvid mismatches the filesize!:(
What can I do to get a perfect filesize?

[CWR03]

You're probably getting a setting wrong in Gordian Knot - post your logfile. It's not likely a problem with Xvid.

I found the mistake but I don't know how to fix it!
In GordianKnot the bitrate shown is 1018 but the final movie has 1012. What can I do to keep the bitrate which gknot gives to me?

[HeadBangeR77]

Gee, looks like nobody has used GK for ages here. ;)

The undersize you're getting is quite common, so I wouldn't worry, apart from this result: "1400MB ---> 1380MB" which is a bit too much imo.
Disable the calculation of AVI header ("Calculate Frame Overhead"), and you should get more proper results (it's even written either in FAQ or the basic guide here). It's always been like that with GK and XviD.

The only thing that worries me: you say you used to get very exact file-sizes, but don't any more. Are you 100% sure you haven't installed anything, that could influence the encoding process, in the meantime?

Btw. The latest official stable release of XviD is 1.1.2 build by Koepi, while 1.2.0 should be also worth a try (supports multi-threading, if you happen to have a dual-core system). If I may suggest sth, then an upgrade would be wise imo. Plz remember to uninstall the older version, before installing the newer one.

cheers,
HDBR77

[BlumiTheRipper]

I installed ffdshow (a new version) a few weeks ago, but that's all!
Could ffdshow influence the encoding with gknot?

:thanks:

[BlumiTheRipper]

I don't need to use Xvid 1.2 (beta) because my system isn't with Dual-Core CPU.
This is my system:

Athlon64 4000+ @ 4400+ :)
ASUS A8N32-SLI Deluxe Sockel 939 (SATA2, Gbit LAN,..)
160GB Seagate Barracuda (IDE)
Radeon X1650 Pro (PCI-E, 256MB)

So you see it isn't easy to encode movies (the speed isn't very high but it's ok).

[squid_80]

Overhead: 3968 kbyte.
That's where your 3MB is going. Like HeadBangeR77 said, just turn off the Calculate AVI Overhead option in gordian knot when using Xvid.

[HeadBangeR77]

I'm confused, because ffdshow (which I use as well) shouldn't interfere with GK&XviD AFAIK.

That's why I'm using 1.1.2 atm, but you seem to use 1.0.3, at least according to the logfile you've posted. ;)

[BlumiTheRipper]

Normaly I don't use Xvid 1.0.3! I just wanted to give it a try!

Thx! I will try your solution and turn of the overhead ;)

Greez to all

Thanx for your help :thanks:

[HeadBangeR77]

You're welcome. ;)
Plz make sure, since you must have installed the older version (1.0.3) to make use of it, to always do a clean /fresh install, not over the previously used build.

cheers,
HDBR77

[BlumiTheRipper]

I disabled Overhead function, but the files still get no perfect filesize. I think it could be the new lame codec (3.97) which i use.
I used to encode the audio with lame 3.90.3 but now i'm using 3.97!
Is this the reason? PS: I use VBR not CBR! Is this good?
I used to encode with cbr 128 and now with preset medium!

How can i get a perfect filesize?
Or is it the mistake of xvid! I always used 1.1 beta... and now i'm using beta!
Should i use the old GKnot .028. version?

I just wanna have the correct filesize!

What shall I do?

Greez BlumiTheRipper:thanks:

[CWR03]

Is this the reason? PS: I use VBR not CBR! Is this good?
To eliminate the audio as a problem, do an encode, but click the Process Audio Only button rather than advancing to the next tab to run the whole job. This will give you the audio file you need, which you can then select manually and add to the full encode. If the same encoded file then comes out with the exact file size, you have your answer.

[HeadBangeR77]

I've never had a perfect 2-pass encode (in terms of the final file size) with XviD in my life. :D
There are always like some KB missing, but not MB.

Do you have the option "recalculate bitrate" checked?
You seem to swap between various versions of XviD quite often (at least it seems so): plz, make sure you uninstall the previously used one before installing the next one. This is often the cause for many problems.

cheers,
HDBR77

PS.
1) Superfluous or not - "recalculate bitrate" is important.
2) Repetitio mater studiorum est - we still don't know, if BlumiTR does a fresh install, and it ain't easy to figure out from his posts which version exactly he uses atm.
3) I was talking about pure MPEG-4 ASP stream in my case, as to file sizes - I transcode and mux files separately. Strange, but I've marked the accuracy of the final size sometimes depends on the matrix used.

[CWR03]

I've never head a perfect 2-pass encode (in terms of the final file size) with XviD in my life.
My encodes with GordianKnot hit the target size exactly if I select an audio file or use CBR audio - only with VBR MP3 do they come up a bit off.

I've also noticed that the majority of your posts here are superfluous since they reiterate information that has already been supplied in the thread.

[BlumiTheRipper]

Thanks for all your help.
I hope I'll find a way to solve this problem.
I don't understand this hole xvid fails filesize shit not.
I worked everytime.


Thanx :thanks:

[CWR03]

Blumi, did you try this suggestion (http://forum.doom9.org/showpost.php?p=960229&postcount=16)? Even if it doesn't entirely solve your problem, it will determine what it is.
