Hi All , expecialy TheWEF

Recently I find myself recompressing 2cd movies to 1 cd
(Usially on request from less experienced and "budget" pal)

The sound isn't the problem ,but the final movie params are hard to decide since the quallity loss is crucial in such proccess.

I use most of time Gnot as bitrate/res calculator and make decition upon Average Bits value.

But since every movie compresses differenty I would like to preform a compressibility test. Gnot since don't have 100% avi support :(
so until then, the QUESTION :

How do I calculate this value (Average Bits) based on which given params ??

The calculations are simple :)
I just took wrong stuff into account :D
Any way I even made a simple excel template to help me next time
(With few simple additional conditional formatting)

I'll mail it, if someone interested in.
