CCE vs. TMPG ????

[Ekin]

Ok. this question is for people that have tyied CCE 2.50 and TMPG. Does anybody know which one CCE or TMPG is better in quality when you encode movies ? In DVD2SVCD there's the option of using CCE or TMPG. I was just wondering which one is better in QUALITY "as in video and audio", TIME "as in encoding time"

This is a pretty common discussion. I was going to yell at you for not using the search button, but I tried a search on this subject and got tons of irrelavent threads and couldn't find a good one.

The common thinking is that for Mpeg-2(SVCD) CCE is superior to TMPG and for Mpeg-1(VCD) TMPG is better then CCE.

yes markrb i would agree with that the tests i have done would back me up i know that anything lower then 1600kb/s i would switch over 2 doing vcd with tempgenc as svcd's start 2 look worse but other then that svcd's look much much better :)
