About VBR Bias and Qual Prec?

[John™]

Hello,

My settings are

VBR Bias: 10
Qual prec: 4
VBR Passes: 5

Is it good?

What is the difference between VBR 10, 20, 16....
Qual prec: 4, 10, 15....
??
thank you ;)

5 passes is a lot, and will take a lot of extra time. IMHO it also won't improve the quality any greater than what you'd get with 3 passes.

If you intended to use CCE, even the creators state that anything more than 3 passes is overkill and apart from the dramatic increase in time you won't get much more out of it

But, there are others that swear 6 passes on very high motion films, like Star Wars or LOTR has made a difference to the final output

Possibly due to tweaking the bitrate better with each pass, so squeezing just that little bi extra out, along with tweaking the matrix


Its all down to how much time you are willing to spend
