Yet everyone uses mplayer, how bizarre.
-
deadchip
well, yeah, mplayer plays everything
-
FauxFaux: but i meant more like encoding
-
etc..
-
dvd ripping
-
FauxFaux
..where people use mencoder. ;)
-
deadchip
it's cleary possible on *nix as well
-
etc
-
yeah i do that too :P
-
i actually encoded kill bill 1+2 into h264
-
the files are ~750 MB in size yet almost DVD quality
-
that's pretty awesome :)
-
wuth mencoder that is
-
it took 1 day per movie or so
-

-oac mp3lame -ovc xvid -xvidencopts bitrate=-700000 -lameopts q=2 gogogo.
-
deadchip
with 4fps encoding speed
-
erhhh
-
FauxFaux: -ovc x264 :P
-
i still have dvd dumps around that await h264 encoding but i just don't have the time as it takes a day or so and it stalls out the box
-
FauxFaux
I have enough problems finding people who can play xvid, let alone whatever the hell that is. ;P
-
deadchip
and i ahve to make sure i do it at a time when i'm rather sure the box won't reboot, aside from power outages or sth
-
FauxFaux: um
-
ok i assumed somehow you know what that is
-
-
really you can encode a VOB dump down to 700-800MB without visible quality difference to the original MPEG-2 content
-
i mean, at a size of 800MB there is SOME slight decrease but it's negligable
-
not worth mentioning
-
incomparable to MPEG-4 at 700-800 in any case (IN-comparable!)
-
jesus it's like watching the DVD
-
i just looked into the kill bill 2 rip again
-
FauxFaux
Yeah, I know it's a codec.
-
Are we voting h264 and aacplus at the moment?
-
deadchip
well i encoded the audio into aac yeah
-
i don't think it's aac+
-
but using aac+ you could presumably use a bitrate of, let's say 64kbps for good _enough_ quality if you just want to watch the movie
-
and not blow it out your dolby 7.1 or whatever-you-have system
-
but i don't think faac can properly encode aac+ (yet?)
-
faad can de-code it but encoding is not possible atm i think (with free/open sourced software)
-
FauxFaux
Shrug.
-
deadchip loves discussions with ppl who are indifferent as to what he says in the end
-
I'm all up for discussion, I'm just pissed and trying not to fall asleep at my keyboard. Night. :p
-
deadchip
