Is a higher number for Video BitRate and Dimensions better for TV full screen viewing? |

What exactly do you mean? Highth x width or way it is encoded? |

I've noticed that a larger screen size (720x480 vs 320x240) of the same file size seems to look better, but I don't know if that's just me fooling myself... I've also noticed that encoding XviD seems to be better than DivX. Dunno. But yeah, the greater the file size which a higher CBR will create, the better the video quality...all things being equal. |

For a Square TV set I like nstc 352x240. Just make sure that how ever you convert them to use CBR HQ for best resualts. I use TMPGEnc Plus 2.59.47.155 for most of my editing. |

I must admit, though, that I've seen some videos with HORRIBLE video quality but high bit rates. It really depends on your source material and program as much as any setting. |

Well for a standard tv the aspect ratio is 4:3 and for an HD tv is it 16:9 the resolutions are totally diffrnet. The answer lies in the source material from which the tv show was ripped from. If for example the source material was 640*480 and you ripped it at 720*480 it will naturally look worse. Higher bitrate just means that there is more information per second of the video. It's like a digital camera. If you have a camera with low Mega pixles and you are shooting very high res photos it will look like crap. But if you have a high mega pixle camera and you are shooting at a high res then it will look good. So it's all source material there is no right or wrong answer to your question |

Got to agree eith that. Encode to whatever your viewing pleasure is. |

Ok, wow thanks for all the advice! I was actually just looking to download the best possible video quality for my collections, and even though I realize now the numbers are no guarentee, I have a much better idea what it all means! Thanks again! Keep all the great knowledge pouring out guys! |

thetrekhippy if you don't already have it I would suggest you get a copy of TMPGEnc V.2.524.63.181 and use it for your re-encoding. It can not correct all picture ills, but does have the ability to encode in 2 Different HIGH Quality MODES. Check it out |

@chazzbo Do you mean your monitor screen is too small? If so why not use your TV screen as a monitor for the purpose. Any good computer store will show you how and sell you the cabling needed. Revertion to ordinary monitor is quite simple as well. |

I did try TempGen, however I found it difficult to use, too many expert settings I don't have time to learn about right now.. and I'm horrible with numbers in any form. Right now, I was wondering if anyone knows a good .avi repair program. I just tried that new DivFix , but when I click on Check Errors for the file, it just closes the program and gives me the old "Send or Don't Send" error. Thanks |

I have always used AviFixed, found in the Klxodec Pack. The last Codec Packs that I can find with it in is, either Klcodec353f or Klmcodec353. They can be found in the older version section of Edskes File Download Mirror. http://home.hccnet.nl/h.edskes/mirrorold.htm It is a safe site and I have never had any problem with it. As to the DivxFix every place that i have checked they say tere is problems with it such as you have experianced. |

FFMpeg works for me and is cross-platform. Yes trek hippy its command line app but there are 101 GUI front-ends for it. Personally it is like my swiss army knife for video. I could send an email showing how to do what ever you need to if interested. W~~~ |
