i finally decided to update my instant copy to the newest version. i was using the previous hidden settings editor for the old version. with this one there is no recommended button. so im wondering what values should i set for each? as always im looking for the best quality possible. i got sick and tired of 8.05 constantly undersizing my final result. i figure the new version cant be as bad. wondering if undersizing is a problem with this version too. anyway, any help is appreciated. btw, i only use instant copy for movies where compression is 75% or better. any lower and i use dvd rebuilder. thanks

do a search and you will find a post that asks about settings.

the new hidden settings editor for 8.3 was released about a month ago and there is only one post regarding recommend values, it says increase the "minimum analysis by size" to 200MB or more and the "maximum analysis by percent" to something like 33%. im looking at what i should set for "dvd-5 destination size" and "dvd save quality in percent". should i set it destination size higher to something 4.59 to offset undersizing issues. also i dont understand what exactly is "dvd save quality in percent". should i leave this at default 2%. thanks

i admust admit i couldn't find it also. I googled several evenings and this forum, but i couldn't find any place that explains all hidden settings.

COuld some one post the link to the thread where they were explained?

if you are looking for a thread to explain every setting then you are out of luck as far as i know. you shouldnt need to change most anyway. the analysis settings are to increase the chances of getting a close to desired output size. anyway a few threads to get you started (found these really easily)

tyvm

but i found those too...yes they are easy to find
But it seems every one wants those options...but there is nowhere a real explenantion of them all.
I was just curious about what every setting did.

Will give google an other go.
