Hello, I'm a newbie here (although I learned already a lot thanks to this great forum). I hope someone can answer my questions, enumerated for your convenience from 1 to 4.
Nowadays everybody talks about AVC, but...
on a laptop with only 800 MHz encoding H.264 isn't just fun. :( So I'll have to stick with MPEG4 Part 2.
So I made a series of test encodings with Xvid. I've discovered that:
the PS3 doesn't like QP and GMC
the PS3 takes ASP only in .avi container. It refuses to play the same video stream when in .mp4 container ("incompatible data").
1. Am I missing something?
the PS3 doesn't play the .avi file as soon as I add a mp3 or aac stream, displaying in Information a way too high data rate for the video stream.
2. What am I doing wrong?
Red Kawa's PS3 Video 9 manages to make playable files, but they are apparently Simple Profile @ Level 3, which I can't produce with Xvid, even when turning off all ASP-Features.
3. Right? Maybe hexediting would work, like with AVC? (I know, changing profile isn't the same as changing level!)
It won't play 3ivx Simple Profile streams in .mp4 container.
4. Why? Please don't leave out details!
:thanks: in advance!
