File Info In Nandub

[kttiger]

I just looked at the file info in nandub and was surprised.

It says DivX Quality (0-100) = 52.541

But the movie looks amazing to me. Is that normal or do you think I could get it better?

Here is the processing settings.

VirtualDub.audio.SetSource(0);
VirtualDub.audio.SetMode(0);
VirtualDub.audio.SetInterleave(1,500,1,0,0);

Can I improve this ?

If it looks fine, then stay with that.

DivX-quality was never meant to be used with SBC-Movies, but rather with non-SBC-Movies.

The problem ist, that SBC-Movies have a more or less constant average DRF throughout the movie. A non-SBC-Movie could be DRF2x 90% of the file, wasting lots of bits on still-pictures, and look awful in a few scenes, where they use DRFs as high as 8x. So non-SBC-Movies often get a much higher quality-Factor, but noone would tell you they really look better.

Just forget about that. Although below 50% even SBC looks quite bad to me. But that's a matter of taste.

Thank you for explaining that to me.
