Badaboom yes or no?
Have Badaboom a good or bad quality. Badaboom is fast but good and what is better?

Quality is terrible compared with x264 so don't pay for this crap.

Did you compare Badaboom against x264 with settings the encode at the same speed ???

sure x264 has better quality but it takes a order of magnitude to get the job done too. |

You DO understand that your CPU is relative weak compared to GPU for video encoding? |

People are never bloody satisfied.
If we made x264 use --preset veryfast by default, people would complain about how the quality isn't nearly as good as it could be. And when we make x264 use --preset medium by default, people complain about how it's slower than an encoder that uses fast settings by default. |

you expect me to use x264 on fastest settings and still wait for a much longer time period for the encode to finish over badaboom, on this machine badaboom is the better option. if someone had an i7/i9 and a super fast graphics card the better option for them would be to use x264 to do the encoding. all im saying is badaboom does have its advantages. if you have a poor performer of a cpu and and good video card then put the video card to use. |

I get around 20 FPS on a quad core Phenom 955 with x264 medium settings, CRF 23, progressive source to 720p output. For 1080p output I still get 11-12 FPS. Maybe it's time to get a faster CPU if a 2 hour movie takes days to encode at those settings. |

Of course x264 will be slow, if you use slow settings
What about trying something like "--preset fast" ???

So you want "fast" settings, but you used "medium" (standard) settings. And now you complain about speed?

Yes but with medium settings the quality is not good. With fast settings....??

However claiming that x264's quality with "medium" settings was "no good" is blasphemy. Especially if we keep in mind how horrible Badaboom looks!

There is a tradeoff between quality and speed. Choose one or the other or something in the middle.
There is no question that x264 max quality is better than badaboom's max quality If your current results aren't good enough another option is to use a lower crf value or higher bitrate too |

I make a new test with 2-pass with 8000 bitrate. I hope with this settings looks better.
