Tough Cartoon encode

[Teegedeck]

That shouldn't be a problem then, apart from the legal bit. Can anyone provide that kind of RAW material?

Have you found that post by Chris (who gives a damn about the law when it comes to Matroska :p)?

Your wish is my command, here is this cartoon clip that was posted at the target bitrate in full res anamorphic http://www.geocities.com/bonzi5252/cut.zip. Sorry 'bout the zip geocities doesn't like extension .mkv. Doesn't look too shabby does it Sirber? Bet you didn't think XviD could do that at that bitrate, :D. Sorry I can't check to make sure I got the aspect ratio correct though since the overlay mixer on ffdshow seems to be broken in my build but it should be right. I used settings and avisynth script very similar to mf's. EDIT: Wups, there is some problems with this first encode, I forgot that it was PAL :confused: I'll fix them and put another one up. Probably, it won't be as nice as the first one though. Maybe I'll just have to make it bigger, :( Ok, I fixed it, how embarrasing. I certainly hope that nobody downloaded that.

Geocities external linking. Open http://www.geocities.com/bonzi5252/ and click on cut.zip.

@BoNz1

Could u please post what u used for AVS script.
Very nice sample, though the aspect ratio isnt the correct one.

Thx for ur time

Like I said extremely similar to mf's, here is the avs:
SetWorkingDir("C:\Video\Avisynth Plugins\")
LoadPlugin("mpeg2dec3.dll")
LoadPlugin("Unfilter.dll")
LoadPlugin("Deen.dll")
LoadPlugin("WarpSharp.dll")
LoadPlugin("aWarpSharp.dll")
mpeg2source("C:\Documents and Settings\Default User.HOME-QTMJ2QAXB3\Desktop\cut.d2v", cpu2="ooooxx")
Deen("a3d", 4, 2, 10, 30)
crop(10,16,700,548)
UnFilter(-10,-20)
LanczosResize(704*4, 544*4)
XSharpen(255, 255)
LanczosResize(704, 544)
aWarpSharp(depth=8.0, blurlevel=1)
LanczosResize(704, 544)
And the settings I used, H.263 quants, b-frames 2,150,100, croma motion, VHQ 4. Everything else was defaults. Sorry about the aspect ratio, like I said I have no way to check if it is right but it is easy enough to fix. BTW, the link works here.

And u dont have to escuse ur self.
U helped and thats what counts.

@all

What kind of compress mode have u used in ur samples??
1 pass fixed bitrate
or 2 pass fixed size?

Thx

2pass with fixed size calculated from your bitrate (bitrate / 8 * amount of seconds). Settings are the same as my recommended settings (see below in my signature), and build latest Koepi api-3 (unstable) build.

As i am doing it.

note: the filter chain as only one bad thing...im doing 2fps encoding.

Reminds me of the days I encoded with DivX3 using my trusty old P3 450MHz...
