I had read in another post of yours concerning this about mode=3

You had stated:
"I can't promise you any trips to God, but mode=3 will give you a second way to process hybrid material. It seemed to me that when the clip is mostly film, it ought to use mode=3, so that the film portions go through nicely, since they are the majority of the clip. But when the clip is mostly nonfilm, you would want mode=1, to render the video portions nicely."

From everything I have read is that most people are using mode=1 for TV Shows hybrids. But you mention the mode=3. So I am confused on which one is best for NTSC TV Hybrid DVDs. Is mode=3 maybe for movie hybrids or better for anime or does it actually replace mode=1 for all hybrids?

The quote states everything I have to say about it. Is there some part you did not understand?

I guess your post is pretty clear and I should have indicated more directly what my question was.

I searched the forums and notice there is not much talk of mode=3 or use of it for hybrids. Is it just that it is new and people are not aware of it or is mode=1 actually turning out better for most people with hybrids.

Also are the threshold settings different? Because when I see people using mode=3 they are using very low values like 2 or even .05. Where with mode=1 I normally see threshold=50

Thanks for your help.

BTW - I see your from Chicago too, how about that snow!

I strongly suggest that you experiment with these things yourself and reach a good understanding of what is happening. You'll never get the best results for a given source clip if you rely on authority. Take other people's experiences as a starting point and reach your own conclusions. Without seeing your source material, how can anyone tell you what to do?

Did it snow? I'm in India right now. :)

I guess its time to put what I know to practice. Thanks for your help.

Yes, it snowed about 8 inches here in Chicago.
