That pass-2 quantisation is what determines final quality. It can spike but
this is only if the input is genuinely hard-to-encode for a complete GOP
(group-of-pictures).

The easy way to understand all this is that the -F flag specifies
the rate at which the decoder outputs *decoded images* for display.
This is not always the same as the rate at which encode images arrive and are
decoded because of the 3:2 pulldown to display 24Hz Movie material for

Can you try things with 1.6.2 - a lot of Bugs have been fixed since 1.6.1...
You'll need to use '-M' to stop mplex trying to split the output at every

Hi Andras,
I had a look at this issue and there was indeed a suble issue in some recent
modifications that meant intra coding was being preferred slightly to
non-intra coding.This is the wrong way around as non-intra can be skip
coded (when blocks are unchanged) whereas intra cannot...

No idea. Well let's put it this way.What I could test using software
players seemed to work. Do you have so

One possibility: when you split out using mplayer you are getting silences /
discontinuities in audio filled with silences so when you re-encode sync is

It depends what you mean by subtitles. SVCD and DVD do it differently.
Both are on the 'TODO' list. Neither should be very hard to do - m

Dan,
Do you have a short sequence that shows the ghosting effect? I'd like to

Yes please do... it would be really useful to have a sequence that shows the
effect. It sounds like it could be a Bug in the internal inverse

Dear Ion,
Sorry I can't help. I don't know anything about the windows verison.
However, if they distributed the binaries they *must* make source code
