I just read about the lofty claims made on www.kvcd.org and was impressed. Fitting upto 180 minutes on a single CD-R is impressive. All the examples given used tmpgenc and other Windows tools. I am a Linux user.
I was glad to see that mpeg2enc now supports the -K kvcd to specify the magic custom quantisation matrix. I tried this (using dvd::rip, transcode latest version and mjpeg 1.6.1-90) but I was dissapointed by the results. The filesize of my resulting MPG1 (VCD) was no smaller as compared to not using -K kvcd. What is the recommended way to use this? If I specify a manual bitrate of, say 2000kbps (ok that becomes a XVCD), does that defeat the purpose of using -K kvcd? How about the "-q" switch to mpeg2enc? I believe transcode/dvdrip use the default setting for this, which is 8? How do I go about getting high quality MPG1 streams and least filesize using this new feature? I regularly use a manual bitrate of 2000kbps to get very nice quality VCDs, but I pay the price for the high bitrate since even 100 minutes needs more than 1 CD-R.
