Config x264 anime max quality

[terminator3]

x264 is the pixelated videos makes me worse than xvid, that's going on? Use VirtualDubMod but others feel the same, which is the configuration of the x264 ideal to take the highest quality while taking up too much size?

[Atak_Snajpera]

x264_10bit.exe --tune animation --preset placebo

[terminator3]

I do not understand what you mean, I use VirtualDubMod and I can not configure the codec and not how I pixelated videos of anime, any solution?

[Atak_Snajpera]

so use something what allows configuring x264 codec. simple.

and I have to put settings to have the highest quality of anime?

and how to install the x264.exe? I open it and nothing comes out, a msdos window and closes quickly

[Atak_Snajpera]

just wait for ripbot264 v1.17.1

[terminator3]

but as I install the 10bit x264.exe? is the

thanks

You don't "install" the x264.exe. It's a command-line encoder. You run it from the console. Or use some GUI front-end.

It cannot be used with with VirtualDub(Mod) :rolleyes:

Actually, it can (http://www.virtualdub.org/blog/pivot/entry.php?id=326#body). But not in the same way as VfW-Encoders and it's too hard for beginners.

[terminator3]

but I want to use it with virtualdub is essential, why not tell me the same configuration of 8 bits for maximum quality anime? I do not care who is 10 bit or 8 the question is to do with virtual

In that case you should probably use this (http://sourceforge.net/projects/x264vfw/).

Hi, I have a problem when I use it to create a dvd2avi d2v, because I recognized the wrong framerate video, the video is 23.976 frame and created the d2v project I get to 29000 frames, any solution? I do not understand because it detects wrong framerate the dvd2avi

people should really start updating their softwares, dvd2avi from the gordonknot package has been 10 years old, as well as virtualdubmod, they were so outdated and not under any maintenance anymore.

And you should at least read the gordanknot manual on how to use dvd2avi. You need to first preview it by pressing F5 or F6, and read the info. If it said "90% film" or more, then you just simple "force film" and you're done. If it reads less than "90% film", you will then honor the flag, save the d2v, load the d2v in avisynth, and do the ivtc there by simple "tfm().tdecimate()".

What x264 settings are widely considered transparent among experienced encoders when re-encoding a good quality CG animation 1080p24 H.264 video? I'm using x264 10-bit via command line interface and thinking something like "--preset veryslow --tune film --crf 16". My target is to reduce original filesize as much as possible, but keep transparent quality. I don't trust to my unexperienced vision in this case.

[sneaker_ger]

Most people only use CRF 18...20 for 1080p, so 16 is already very good. Those settings should be transparent for virtually everyone.

[Atak_Snajpera]

crf 16 is too much in my opinion. 20 will be enough.

I like 14. :D

[Atak_Snajpera]

and how much space can you save vs original?

[Groucho2004]

I like 14. :D
I call your 14 and raise you -2.

[Asmodian]

and how much space can you save vs original?

Really a lot. :rolleyes:

[Atak_Snajpera]

maybe if you encode from lossless source.

is dvd resolution, which is the way to get virtualdub the highest quality?

Your question doesn't make much sense. VirtualDub is just a front end, the encoder you use determines the quality.

I mean the x264 codex configuration but can be used with virtualdub, which settings to put top quality anime dvd to mkv

There is a "lossless" setting.

Generally, you would pick a preset, the slower the better (except placebo which is just a waste of time), and then use a CRF value that meets your needs regarding file size/quality.
If you're encoding anime, you might want to try out the "tune" option for that content.

Lossles but occupied a bit silly not larger?

It appears that google translate fails in both directions...

Yes, it can be larger, but you asked for top quality.
