[MPlayer-users] Mencoder 1.0pre4 and DVD rip

[Petr Kopecky]

Hi there,

I'm just trying to encode some DVD with mencoder but the quality is very
poor.
I've been always using 3-pass encoding with this parameters (for example):

mencoder movie.dumpstream -aid 129 \
    -ovc frameno -o frameno.avi -oac mp3lame \
    -lameopts cbr:br=128:aq=0

mencoder movie.dumpstream -aid 129 \ 
    -o Nazev_filmu.avi -oac copy -ovc lavc \
    -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4:vbitrate=1000:vhq:vme=1:vpass=1 \
    -vop scale=512:288

mencoder movie.dumpstream -aid 129 \ 
    -o Nazev_filmu.avi -oac copy -ovc lavc \
    -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4:vbitrate=1000:vhq:vme=1:vpass=2 \
    -vop scale=512:288

The encoding speed was about 20fps a the quality of avi was really good.
Now with the latest mencoder (1.0pre4) the speed is approx. 55fps and the
quality is bad.

Are there any significant changes since 1.0pre3?
What parameters should I use now?

Thanks for any help.

Regards
Petr
