Procoder 2 DVD settings

Bitrate is directly proportional to the quality of the compressed image. Higher bitrate, better image.
Of course, in the real world, some players have trouble reading media, and therefore higher bitrates can be dangerous at times.
Single vs Multi-pass encoding doesn't have a definite better/worse, it depends on the situation.
There are a number of threads in the ProCoder section of the Canopus forums. I recommend popping over there.

How I do it.
How I do it.
I just output my timeline to Lossless avi (for storeing as a master).
Then I take that footage and convert to mpeg with TMPGEnc (that's the stupidest name for a product, almost as stupid as the word stupidest
)
This allows me to retain the highest quality during the down conversion process from HD, and keep the widescreen, and color correct, normalize, add flags for 24p display, and all the good stuff for making dvd's look the way you want them to look.
I compress at 8k.
Then I author with the TMPGEnc aurthoring product, or the easier one I got with my Sanyo HD1 camera. I think it's called dvd workshop.
Other ways seem to not do the progressive and the 24p correctly.
If your 24p dvd does not play like a store bought dvd, you did something wrong.

At least that explaination explains what they were thinking when doing this.
It's just unusual and difficult to remember, and say.
Do you just say each letter, or try to pronounce it as a word?
....That's not a question you need to answer, just a thought outloud.
In any case, it seems to do the best quality in compression, and being a smooth process.
