24062003-1 bug first few frames macro blocks?

Hi, I'm using:Koepi's 24062003-1 2pass croma motion motion search 6 h.263 VHQ 4 b frames (2,150,75,0) croma optimizer Trillis. The problem is in the first few seconds on video and shows allot of macro blocks. it seams like the codec (1st pass) it not analysing the first few seconds / frames and therefore not giving the right allocation of bits (i could be totally wrong ;)). I'm using the latest ffdshow decoder and my hardware spec is below, this happens on my laptop and home computer so i don't think its decoding. this build is very nice , i don't even mind this (bug?) my encodes are looking good for the size :D regards cyph

I think it's the source which is causing these troubles. I never run into such kind of a problem. Regards Koepi

Use ffdshow's OSD function to find out. Activate OSD and make it show current quantizer. If it starts with high values and drops later, you can blame xvid. Radek

yes you are right, it starts off about 2,3 on the black before the first picture, then picks up to 23,24 then drops after the "macroblock" scene. Friends episode: Macroblock scene [23-24] normal average [9-12] goldmember: Macroblock scene [10] normal average [6] pulp fiction: macroblock scene [15] normal average [5] so is this ok? should i just carry on as i am? regards cyph

please have a look at the 'credits' tab in the xvid configuration dialog and check if there is any thing entered int the 'credits at start of movie' section!

Hello no everything is unchecked in that section. regards cyph shall i post screen shots?

then please reinstall the codec AND hit load defaults then press ok, and then, try again.

Try turning off anything on the debug tab (Chroma op and Trellis) and see what happens.

i will try turnig off things in the debug tab, i will get back to yuo in a few hours :) regards cyph
