Mencoder and VBR MPEG-2 settings for Mpegplayer

<< < (2/3) > >>

nonoitall:
Okay thanks, I guess I'll do some trial and error.  Now, what about the VRC buffer size? :)

nonoitall:
I guess the other name for that would be VBV buffer size.  Anyone know what this is for Mpegplayer?

cool_walking_:
I have no idea what a VRC/VBV buffer is...

Leave it at the default? Look through your encoder documentation for examples? Try something and see if it works?

nonoitall:
There is no default - whenever you set a maximum bitrate you must set the VBV buffer size as well.  The only examples provided in mencoder's documentation are for VCD, SVCD and DVD.  I'm trying to encode for some targets that I don't necessarily own, so the try-and-see method isn't really giving me a very good, complete picture of whether certain settings are okay or not.

Llorean:
Why are you still worrying about a maximum bitrate?

Since you can't even test it on targets you don't own, there's no way to determine what maximum bitrate causes performance problems anyway, so shouldn't your goal either be a target quality, or a target filesize, instead?
