Hi there, I have an 8 minute, 720 x 480 DV file that is roughly 1 gig in size. I used Divx pro 5.0.2 codec to encode with VIRTUALDUB and with the following settings: 1 pass 780 kbps Bi-directional encoding source interlaced:all frames are interlaced Max keyframe interval: 250 frames Max quantizer: 4 Min quantizer: 2 RC averaging/reaction period: 2000 frames/10 frames Rate control: 20 Performance quality: slowest File takes about 15 to 20 mins to encode and resulting file size is 180 MB. Quality is GREAT, but I think this is a big file size. Any suggestions on how I could SPEED up the encoding process AND REDUCE file size? (will reducing the resolution down from 720 x 480 to 640 x 480 help?) Thanks!
