[Mjpeg-users] 2-pass mpeg2

[Greg Trounson]

Greetings,
Does anyone here know when mpeg2enc will support 2-pass mpeg2 encoding? 
   MPlayer does 2-pass DivX quite well, but doesn't do mpeg2, so can't 
be used for SVCD creation.

The absence of this capability under Linux seems to be one thing keeping 
a lot of video enthusiasts away.

Greg

Re: [Mjpeg-users] VCD 2500vbr better quality than SVCD

Hello,

Thanks, Steffen, Bernhard and Steven, for your replies. I will try your
suggestions to improve my SVCD recording. I am wondering though, whether
it would be better to stick with (non-standard bitrate) VCD, because
with the same amount of data the quality is better (since a normal
television want show you the higher resolution anyway). Or do you think
that with the proper settings, my SVCD should look at least as good as
VCD, with the additional advantage of following the standard?
SVCD does have advantages over VCD (for a start it's mpeg2-based).

I would create an SVCD, but at VCD resolution (352x288).  That should 
give you a better picture at 2500kbps than the VCD.

hth,
Greg
