No. My source is a rather cheap DV camera (Sony TRV240). On one hand, being a digital camera makes it less noisy than other (analog). On the other, being cheap has its own disadvantages: the CCD has a rather nasty color noise when filming in darker places. But i thought i could live with it. I'm not sure what to do. I don't want to apply denoise filters blindly. I know precisely how the noise looks like, but i don't know which filter works best against it (if any). > > INFO: [mplex] Average bit-rate : 2460800 bits/sec > > INFO: [mplex] Peak bit-rate : 2543200 bits/sec > > That is very close to the maximum.

No. mpeg2enc -v 0 -f 4 -F 4 -n n -o "v1".m2v -a 2 -I 1 -S 795 > That is a mild high frequency filter than can help lower the > average bitrate slightly. So, this is like a low-pass filter? (i'm much more familiar with the audio stuff) Wouldn't it cut off the fine details? -- Florin Andrei http://florin.myip.org/ ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Mjpeg-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/mjpeg-users
