what resolutions do you recommend for a hq movie.

[decryptit]

I'm trying to rip a movie at 800x600 at 30fps would the movie look good or can i put a better resolution.

What will happen if i increase the frame rate

[zx50]

You can have what resolution you want. Personally i just stick to 512x384.

P.S as long as you have enough bit's in the picture to get rid of blocks.

[decryptit]

But having the resoltion at 800X600 it will increase quality.Right.

Will that effect the movie's aspect ratio.

[zx50]

If you want the resolution at the same as the dvd then have it at 720x400.

[decryptit]

720x576 <--------- Actually this is the dvd's resolution.

[zx50]

Actually if you only count the picture and not the black bars, then like i said 720x400

[decryptit]

You must count everything since a dvd is sorted like that (with all black bars etc)

[zx50]

Yes some DVD's are 720x576 with the black bars built in, and some are 720x576 without. I am so particular when it comes to encoding films, but i just have mine at 512x384. If i was you i would just go for a 1:1 copy because you seem to want quality that you can't get.

P.S DivX is lossy, you are'nt going to acheive perfect results. Great looking yes, perfect no.

I f already gor some good quality but eventually i'm targetting for better quality using various tools and compressors which might be usefull.

I know this is the DivX section, but have you tried XviD <a href="http://koepi.roeder.goe.net/xvid.shtml"target="_"blank"> the latest release</a>, if not then give it a shot and see what you think. If you encoding with gordian knot then avoid the 640x352 mark because to me 352 does'nt look quite right, the others do but that one does'nt. Also try with quarter pixel as well. Thing is with XviD it keeps the detail at all bitrates while DivX does'nt. Done a film and it finished encoding this morning <b><ins>19</b></ins> hours and it did'nt have the same quality as XviD's. The bitrate was 688kbps and while XviD's played nice and clear through WMP9 DivX's did'nt , looked great though but not as detailed as XviD's. Shame really because i would have liked to stick with DivX but i have to go with the better looking one. And it's a lot faster as well

[decryptit]

Good for you personnaly i find divx with lots of features which making use of them might give you pleasent results.
Xvid is good though it still needs some work.

[decryptit]

Have you ever tried enbling these features in the divx codec pro
GMC
Quater pixel

I don't have them highlighted therfore i can't even enable them.
Whats on

[decryptit]

Eventually i've tried something ,I've you decide to disble your profile the
GMC
&
Quater pixel
Will be enabled
But what about b-frames i think that you have to manually select a profile in order to enable them .

Don't you think that.

I personally don't use DivX but recommend going to the divx offical site where all its features are explained, so you can then experiment yourself and maybe report back.
