Not the right filesize????

[Maaij]

Hi

Why I cant get the right filesize??

I want a bigger filesize, I try everything but nothing worked

After encoding the filesize is alaways about 150 mb but I want to get around 180 mb filesize

I try to higher the bitrate, Lower the DRF en play with the gauge

Anyone know :)

See my test.vcf for my settings

I only encode Anime

Anyone can help???

thnx :)

Try increasing the resolution to 640x480. Also you could try using a sharper resizing method. Also, you might want to change your maximum drf from 8 to 6.

I agree-increase the resolution and use a sharper resizer. If you want to use the same resolution, then maybe knock off curve and luma compression, use better quality sound, use max DRF even lower than suggested, or take off SSHQ. I'm not sure I'm reading it correctly, but did you really set WarpSharp to 102?

I dont want to increase my resolution

I use Precise Bicubic resizer
ssh 5/20
warp 40
subtitle

This give me a good result (with ssh and warp)

I try all drf settings even max 2

but the filesize didnt increase

I try disable luma and curve now

Can I use Gknot for Anime encoding with an avi file???

What I know is that Gknot only encoding dvds

So can I encode an avi file with gknot??

Hi-

If you have already tried to encode with DRF 2 (which you could have done with a first pass by saving .avi), then you have already maxxed out the file size. Perhaps there's just not much action going on and it's very compressible.

As for the second question. You can't enter the .avi into GKnot, only a .d2v. But you can run a first pass on the .avi and then enter the resulting stats file into GKnot and get a modified stats file to use in Nandub. But don't forget to enter things like audio size, resolution, .avi length, desired file size into GKnot as well. But as I'm sure you know, the reencoded .avi will not be as good a quality as the original.

You have to ask yourself, does the encode look good the way it currently is at the lower filesize? One of the most basic mistakes I see people new to encoding do is to equal larger filesize with better quality. Can you tell us the name of the encode? If it's Lain, BoogiePop or NTHT I
'm not surprised.
