View Full Version : Full quality control problem in nandub
JasonFly

Sometimes I have bad keyframes in nandub and this will produce a image until the next keyframe.
I thought that this was a problem because i didn't use quality control but on my last rip i use full quality control and the result is the same.
I used the following parameters:
Antishit:16
Minquality:1
These setting doesn't cause oversize but it seems that they don't solve the problem of bad keyframe.
Is there someone which had an idea? please.
I think that nandub image quality is still better than xvid for >800 bitrate.(It's only my opinion)
But I i can't find a solution, i think that i will try other codec and I will anbandon sbc.

@JasonFly
What are your settings and how do you cap keyframes (4-31)? I generally don't /or "didn't" (since I've been using XviD for a long time, and achieving better quality imho ;)) use anti-shit and capped keyframes 2-4 in my sbc encodes with a 2-8 min-max DRF setting. I don't know your settings but 2-4 for keyframes has always worked fine for me (without any anti-shit).

What did you use instead of Antishit ?

I pointed out that I generally just "didn't" use anti-shit, and capping keyframes 2-4 besides setting min-max DRF 2-8 has usually worked fine for me ;). Come on man, do I "have to" use something else instead of anti-shit? ;)

What do you mean by 2-4 for keyframes?Is that drf quality of keyframes.
If it is that I usually put 2-5 to 2-8(It depends on what movie:1 or 2 cd:but if that works for you i 'll probably change).Couldn't it make bigger files using 2-4?
And if i don't use anti shit, It's great because I'll could make my encodes in fast recompress mode.
Thank you very much iago.I'll probably stay in sbc for a while.But this doesn't mean that i don't test xvid. As you seem to be a user of xvid, do you think it 's better to use xvid decoder or to use divx5 decoder.
Thank you

@JasonFly,
I still like nandub-sbc and use it from time to time just for fun or for comparison of codecs, etc. But yes, XviD is absolutely my long-time favourite ;).
Back to topic, yes it is keyframes DRF setting. Under SBC Options->SBC Settings->Compression Levels tab, there is keyframes quality option and the default is min-max: 4-31, which is pretty meaningless imho. If you have problems with keyframes quality and want to ensure having good quality keyframes, cap them lower such as 2-4, if you ask my opinion. (And for the main DRF setting I guess min-max 2-8 is reasonable for both 1cd and 2cd rips.) I don't think it will have much influence on filesize if you set reasonable gauge values. However, predictability is a great problem as you know with sbc.
For decoding DivX 3.11alpha content I personally use either its own decoder or DivX 5.02 decoder. And for Xvid, either Nic's XviD decoder filter or ffdshow.
Well, and of course these are only my personal opinions :). I hope you get good results with your rips.
regards,
iago

Sorry iago but the solution you gave me seems not to work.
I have encoded "From Hell" in sbc with keyframe drf between 2-4(I didn't remember because it was nearly a month ago but it is also possible that I put 2-3 or 2-2 for min-max) and I still had shit frames(only one time and it was less shit than before).
It sucks!
But this doesn't matter because I am slowly sliding to xvid.
Bye

have you try'ed antishit: 16 min. qual: 28 ?
or if that doesnt help you can try antishit: 16 min qual: 30 motion modulation: 25
i hope this solves your prob

Yes I ave already tried and my conclusion is that antishit is shit. because it doesn't change anything.

I read something on nicky pages about editing video or something and the effect from using too much noise reduction produces ghosting. I am not sure what's happening with you dude just trying to give you some more options or if I can help. try this link and scroll down to the noise reduction thing and see if that's what is happening to you.

@JasonFly
There are really many reasons to slide to XviD from SBC, which I find unnecessary to point out here once again. All I can say is: good decision! ;) Good luck, man!

Maybe your problem is related to high Curve Compression value.
I think this thread(named "???") could help you JasonFly

You can also try to use AntiFreeze...
