Hi, I can't get mpeg2enc to generate strict CBR. I need CBR for streaming.
Using diagnostic tool from Kasenna VOD server, I get the following information on the file generated by mpeg2enc (converted into TS by vlc): == MPEG-2 Transport Stream Tool Copyright (C) 1995-1997 Silicon Graphics, Inc. All Rights Reserved. Max_bitrate seen = 3595509 avgBitrate Calculated = 3362108 FATAL ERROR: End-of-file reached before pre-scan complete. -> Could not compute a stable bitrate from the PCRs. == I tried playing with various command line parameters without success, the one I use for the example above is as follows: mpeg2enc -v 0 -I 0 -b 3300 -o "$OUTPUT/$OUTPUT.m2v" --cbr -P -V 128 -c mplex -M -f 3 -o $OUTPUT/$OUTPUT.mpg $OUTPUT/$OUTPUT.m2v $OUTPUT/$OUTPUT.mpa At the same time, on a demo 3.5 mbps CBR file generated by a proprietary encoder I get the following: == MPEG-2 Transport Stream Tool Copyright (C) 1995-1997 Silicon Graphics, Inc. All Rights Reserved. Pre-scan complete ... Rate = 3500000 bps PCR PID = 0x1023 Video PID = 0x1023 Audio PID = 0x1022 Max_bitrate seen = 3500000 avgBitrate Calculated = 3500001 == Any ideas on how to get content generated by mpeg2enc closer to CBR? -- Best Regards Vladimir Ivashchenko Chief Technology Officer Thunderworx, Cyprus - www.thunderworx.com ------------------------------------------------------- All the advantages of Linux Managed Hosting--Without the Cost and Risk!
