Open poll: have KVCDs an acceptable quality with respect to VCDs?

My opinion is always use 2 cds per encode not 1.
The screenshots are at the bottom or middle of that page I posted.
Yes u use the latest version of avisynth with a conjuction of Kwags optimal KVCD script ,tmpgenc & the kvcd modified templates + CQMATIC & CALCUMATIC both those applications must be used in order to find the CQ for a movie to fit to CD/DVD/2CD'S OR 3 movies to 1 dvd ect
P.S. THE xvid codec must be installed as a handler & directshow in tmpgenc must be unchecked.
Also DVD2avi 1.77.3 or DGmpgDec must be used first
(note with DGmpgDec u have to enter time manually in calcumatic because IT WONT OPEN FILES FROM DGmpgDec

 

OK I found the link that wasn't writen in http:// form. I modified it for you..
Yes I understand, now. The problm is finding a good CQ value in order to fit your number of CDs (1 CD-R for KVCD 352x288, 2 for more advanced formats).
Now Im turning on the 'opposite side'. I'm using CalcuMatic (http://www.kvcd.net/CalcuMatic.exe )and CQMatic (http://www.kvcd.net/CQMatic-1.2.06.exe )and I've seen that the rsults depend alot upon the video's type. For instance, a fast motion 2h movie on a CD-R gives a too low value of CQ to make KVCD to fit on it. A slow-motion movie long 1h 30' gives a CQ value rather high (over 80) and gives good results.
Therefore, the poll result changes in this way:

We like KVCDs.............We don't like KVCDs
================================
6................................................2

The KVCD FAQs http://www.kvcd.net/portal/faq.php?lng=en [Q.11 and Q.14] say that 352x288/240 a good threshold is about 74.
This fact might discriminate about the use of 1 or more CDs.
Feel free to test it...

 

how come my kvcd always have better graphic than my vcd.

 

KVCD kick the arse off VCd's check out any release by a group known as TUS who specialise in kvcd conversions, these are awesome for 1 cd < 800 mb movies often giving divx/xvid a run for its money but playable in the majority of dvd players

 

Yes but @ 528x480 a 2CD encode is DVD quality (yes even in mpeg1)
but 1 cd encodes hmmmm @ 352x240 looks shity
