:mad: Guys, i just dont know what to do.
Yesterday I have got myself a Star Wars Episode 4 DVD (pirate version) and encoded it as usual using GKnot and divx 3.11. The picture is great but it often becomes somekind of floating ( what i mean here is that when it's still scenes almost every object doesnt remain on its place it starts floating horisontally).
I have never encountered such a strange problem. I have checked DVD material and it was all normal.
Thanx for help in advance.

It must be the darkside of the force doing that.(ok, bad joke :D)

Are you sure the scenes are 100% stills?
Cause Divx has the tendency to keep "ojects" at the same place when there is slight movement, especially when a low bitrate is used.
Did you make a 1 cd rip?

Yes im sure that those scenes are still, for example the last minute of the film where Luke, Solo and Chubacca are given medals. The scene is almost perfectly still but the picture is floaty.
I did 2 CD rip with 2 sound streams. I love the quality i've got but this artifact bothers me very much.
Did anyone have such a strange problem?
