Need Help on Anime dvdrip Xvid Setting

[leowong1]

Hi im new in encoding.
I've done lots of search in doom9,
but they cannot help for what im exactly looking for.
I want to compress anime dvds episodes of 22 min. on a xvid file of 233 mb.
Can you tell me the most recomended settings using XVID 1.0.1?
Should I use h.263 or Mpeg-custom?
Should I change the b-frame setting?
Should I cap the min/max I, P, B quant?
And how about other settings...?
Them are high motion dvds, the anime is remastered DRAGONBALL/Z.
Here you have some screens.

Hello leowong1,

my 2 cents...

1) Should I use h.263 or Mpeg-custom? CG/Anime matrix or h.263
2) Should I change the b-frame setting? No
3) Should I cap the min/max I, P, B quant? No
4) And how about other settings...? chroma ME, cartoon mode, trellis, NO adaptive quantization

Lets hope you listen better on here than you ever did on irc. You picked a bastardized source to start encoding. Really xvid doesn't matter here. now your filters on the other hand are. Xvid defaults will do well. I wouldn;t recommend cartoon mode or trellis for anime but GMC and/or qpel are a must. just stick with h.263 for the matrix cause I'm sure most would agree it looks the best.

Either way with DBZ your screwed until you learn about filtering. Good Luck.

Edit: you should probably use the latest xvid bugfix 1.0.2.

Yeah, that really is a grizzly looking source. In my anime encodes I don't use cartoon mode either. In fact the only things I do use are chroma motion, chroma optimizer and Trellis. For me, anything elts just made the encode look worse. I would also use b-frames at default settings, any other settings have just given me trouble and poor results. Deffinetly use H.236 as well. Another thing would be to try using only P-frames, 233 is a pretty good size for 22 minutes and you shouldn't really need the extra compression that comes with B-frames, but you can test to see.

IIRC, mostly Ive use a combo of MipSmooth n' Deen for DBZ !!!

But somehow I always fucked-up the fast fight scenes.. :o


@ ChronoCross

Could you give me a hint for the right filter combo ???

Well, for DB/DBZ anime, I am an experienced encoder.
Using deen + (temporalsoften2 / fluxsmooth) + Bicubicresize(576,432,0.5,0) should be pretty enough. Never use mipsmooth for any anime. It blurs too much...:P

And thanks the above 3 guys! Actually I asked that XviD question for my friend. He could not register a doom9 account so I posted this thread for him. BTW, I've been encoding DB/DBZ for a long time and my friend is gonna replace my position.
