Guess why I can't use robshot method properly!

[murattttt]

Yeah, I sure believe this method rocks when it comes to speed and quality but I have a major problem with it.
I have read doom9's guides a thousand times and at last I understood why I couln't comprehend it when I was to begin my 2nd pass with it. Unfortunately this problem can not be solved online as I assume because I need another way to overcome it or a friend with proper eyesight unlike me.
Maybe some of you may already understood I am a color blind!
I look deeply and closely in the CCE graph just can't fill everywhere as many green parts as possible because I don't see it!
Maybe there is anoyher way to achieve quality in the second pass, and maybe someone can help...

dont panic, you can work around it.

the bar goes green when the Q (for the I frame in the gop) is less than 10.0

in this picture: http://doom9.org/mpg/images/cce-advvbr.gif the bottom middle group is 'Current GOP information', and in it it has bitrates, and Q.Factor, for I, B and P

the particular GOP selected in the picture is the first, and it has 6.7 for the I frame, hence why its green ;)

now it would be very time consuming to go thru every gop in the file, but you dont have to, use the - and + buttons at the top (in Q mode), so it shows 12, and then if any gop goes above the grey line nearest to the top, click on it and check the I frame Q.factor

if all else fails, buy a cheap Monitor cable, and swap the green and blue wires around ;)

Now I can figure it out at last.
Thanks for the help auenf.
Though I love my monitor (Philips 107 X2), I can notice the color difference in the graph when I play with RGB values but this way I can only stare at it for 15 minutes (then I burst into tears literally).

[auenf]

it must suck being green deficient ;)

btw, once you work out where the yellow line goes too high, and can pick it without checking lots of gop's, you should breeze thru the advanced VBR settings.

maybe cinemacraft needs to add a colour customization for the graph ;)

It is not that bad auenf, in fact I just can't seperate some mid tones. Unfortunately that is one of them. I thank God I can see every day greens like the ones in traffic lights.:D
If it weren't for car license exams I'd never know I were a daltonist!..
And maybe someday I'll not be able to get a job as a professional encoder because I'm colorblind (Oh God, no!..).
