100% still recompresses ??

[red321]

Hi,

Just ran throught MIB 2, where the movie is small enough to allow 100% on th emain movie, and 30% on the extras.

I expected that the MOvie would rattle through uncompressed, as it does in dvd2one, but it looks as if it was run through like any other compression. Anyone confirm / deny this ?

I confirm this ...to not be true. It just moves it over to the .pdi files....Proof is when I usually transcode (e.g. 80%) I see it flucate (speed that is) between 700KB/sec to 1.5MB/sec. When I have done 100% (done it 20 times or so ..just testing subs, audio, navigation, etc. does whole thing in about 20 mins) I get a speed of 18MB/sec to 20MB/sec.

One other thing is I've looked at the original and 100% transcoded and it's 100% like the original.

Thanks for the reply. That is what I expected, but checking The 2nd Title set on MIB2, it has decreased in size by about 150M, even though I didnt strip anything (intentionally) and the compression rate was 100%.

I will check it out again.

UPDATE : Ran it again, only with the main movie, and it whistled through unchanged. odd !

did it take the same amount of time to complete or was it quicker?

doing Stuart Little 1 and I'm sure it was @100% for the movie yet it took longer than a 2 hour movie @70% to complete :confused:

If it wasn't 100% it was quite high, so the higher the % the slower it must go

Is this true or was it just a one off?

surely @100% it should just extract audio & subs and be a lot faster

If it is recompressing, it goes the same speed no matter if its 20% or if its 80%.

correct....99% will take just as long as 30%. Only 100% is it telling it to not transcode.

:D I musta had mine darn pretty close to 100% as I never normally set the menus to less than 60%

DOH!, cudda sacrificed that little extra on menu's to make main movie 100%

thanks for info guys :)

Ok,

After much messing around I get these results.

1) Deselect all the extras, set the main movie to 100% - no recompression

2) Deselect most of the extras, set the main movie to 100% - no recompression.

3) Deselect most of the extras, set the main movie to 100%, and then change one of the extras compression setting away from the default -
recompression !

So I cannot produce a 100% main movie without recompression, unless I cut out enough extras to allow the Main movie to be expanded back to 100%, without changing the compression on the remaining extras.

Looks like a bug :rolleyes:

so I musta set Stuart Little to 100% as the menus weren't 100%, this is what I mentioned in my earlier post as I was sure I set it to 100% for the main movie, but this confirms I did

thanks for info

I have not yet managed to get movie without transcoding. Yes, I have set the slider to 100% and tried to avoid bugs which MisterX described. There isn't just any way to do that... they should fix this ASAP :P
