Rempeg problem help please

Does anyone know what causes multiple square blocks to appear called pixelation. This is occuring in Reign of Fire and the last of the mohicans. 95% is fine. Are their any settings i can change. I use match source and gradient. the other setting are default. Any help would be appreciated. Carthoris

I think the blocks in some cases are normal. I got some blocks in Titanic and Pearl Harbor at the very first scene where the picture fades in. I use scaling at 65% so it can fit into a DVD-R disc. Afterall you're trying to fit a huge movie into a small disc. You got to forgive some blocks now and then ;)

thanks for the input. what version of tmpg and dvd2avi do you use and is their a guide. The problem with rempg after reading all the posts is that the logo and the movie are different in some way. Rempeg samples the logo and not the movie. If only that could be changed we would be home free. thanks carthoris

Hi there I use ReMpeg2 all the time and I first try to encode the first VOB file only, If the enconde file suffers from pixelation and blockiness I only encode the last 2 VOBs and not the whole movie. I read somewhere that this problem is cause by the I frames, so I set the I frames to 120%

I totally agree that rempeg is the best option available to compress movie files. The big question? how do you transcode vob`s 2 through n and put it all back together with ifo files so it will play on a standalone dvd player. thanks in advance carthoris

how do you transcode vob`s 2 through n and put it all back together with ifo files so it will play on a standalone dvd player. -Carthoris Transcode them with ReMpeg2 individually and remux with Rempeg2 individually, then use IFOedit to correct ifo's and change navigation pointers, get VTS sectors and test with DVD player in IFOEdit. Before you test with DVD player, reboot your computer. If it plays in IFOEdit's player, it will play in a desktop player. The other way is to create a new set of ifo's for all but the first VOB, then rempeg2 them and use VOBedit to join them with the original VOB #1. Good Luck!

I tried to rempeg each vob and then remux with infoedit. I was not successful. I kept creating a bunch of ifo files. I`m realy at a loss how to do this. Is their a guide for this, Any help would be appreciated can you remux with rempeg. Thanks Carthoris

Yes you can remux each individual vob with Rempeg2, look under tools menu

Use VobEdit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! to remux the M2V files back to the VOBs

Vobedit
