[MEncoder-users] Conversion to FLV, are my settings optimal?

[Francis Rammeloo]

I am writing a desktop video uploader application that allows the user to
upload any movie to the video section of our website. The web-player is made
in flash, like on YouTube. So the output format must be flv, and not too big
to avoid overloading the server. These are the settings that I use
currently:


input.avi

-ofps 12

-o mp3lame

-lameopts abr:br=56

-of lavf

-srate 22050

-vf softskip,decimate,pp7,scale=480:320,hqdn3d=4:3:6,harddup

-ovc lavc

-lavcopts
keyint=15:vcodec=flv:vbitrate=256:mbd=2:v4mv:mv0:trell:vqcomp=1:vrc_eq=(tex+10^8*mcVar)^0.1:vstrict=-1

-o output.flv


Do you see any room for improvement here?


I'd greatly appreciate any feedback.


Thanks,

Francis
