some help please

[APPIE]

i've tryed different settings in nandub
followed different guides on the net
but still i only get by quallity check between 20 and 30%
i don't understand why

dvd source pal interlaced 16:9
182 min runtime

the bitrate in nandub i use is 1400. for 2 cd's
can someone tell me if i'm doing something wrong here?

thanks!

can you dl somewhere .vcf files so i can compare them with mine?

A little more info would be nice: What source do you have, DVD, capture, etc. What film are you trying to convert?
What guides do you follow, do you use DVD2AVI/VFAPI or DVD2AVI/AVIsynth, GKnot?

I suggest that you read Doom9's guides (http://www.doom9.org) again along with the forum rules (http://forum.doom9.org/forum-rules.htm) (#1 & #9)

Sometimes also you just have to accept that some films can be very hard to compress good.

i used dvd2avi/vfapi
i used the guide from doom9 also with dufferent settings
i used Gordian knot and also only nandub
quallity is still about the same

source dvd pal interlaced 16:9
122 min runtime
live concert bon jovi crush tour

thats it.

I recommend that you stick to GordianKnot and use Telecide() (Decomb) as de-interlacing. Or maybe GreedyHMA. Those are the best de-interlacing methods and you use them in AVISynth. With the latest GK they are both included but you have to activate them manually. Also adding some Noise Reduction will usually improve quality but will take a lot more time.

Now how long is it? 122 mins or 182 mins like you wrote in your first post? This would explain everything, of course. But rock acts are reknown for bad compressibility, anyway (too much action onstage). Try using a lower resolution with bilinear resize or with AviSynth's soft bicubic resize. and, as we're already talking AviSynth, try a temporal smoother(2,1).

sorry, it is 122 min
i'm trying to find out how avisynth is working

i'm looking for the guide

tanks for all the reply's ....

ok, it took me some time to find out how it works, but i've tryed the way you mention.
divx quallity in nandub fileinfo was about 30%/35%.
i don't understand it.
i've tryed 2 different dvd's, and they get about the same quallity.

what is left to get it better?
i'm lost as a newbie.
