View Full Version : XviD 1.2.1: max bitrate?

Hello:

I am trying to use 11000kbps in some probes, and I can see that when I put the bitrate that I want, 11000kbps, the slide bar in which I can set the bitrate it has a limit of 10000kbps.

It seems that the codec acepts the 11000kbps because they doesn't give any advise, but when I am in the second pass the final bitrate used is 10000kbps.

So my doubt is that if there are a limit in the bitrate that I can use or is a undersize quiestion?.

The source is a HD video, 1920x1080p.




Thanks.
Daimroc.

From 'config.h' in the vfw source:
#define DEFAULT_MAX_KBPS 10000

You'll have to change this to 15000 or so and recompile xvidvfw.dll. Also, you would have to use the 'unrestricted' profile.

Just a wild thought. Load xvidvfw.dll in a hex editor and look for "1027 0000" (little endian hexdecimal of 10000). If there is one occurrence only, replace it with "9F86 0100" (99999). Now the bitrate limit is raised from 10000 to 99999. Of course, you need to test it thoroughly.
