only problem there is that xvid sucks dick for compression to quality ratio

not when used properly.

there is no “when used properly”. if you genuinely think you will get the same quality to compression from xvid as something like h264 then that is just plain ignorant.

so whats so wrong using h264? or xvid encoder?

when i used something else i had in 70% of my vids a soundbug on yt

Try encode with pldx tool.

well then i missunderstand

i agree with this i used h264 too but i dont have the .bat anymore to convert so i use xvid and the compression size is OK for me

Use this: http://www.cybergamer.com.au/forums/thread/25594/Easy-h.264-by-ajaX/

Export as uncompressed with whatever editing software you use, then compress to h.264 (Brassemmemse 720p HD) with this.

I don’t think it will help in the youtube problem, because people using ffmpeg seem to have problems with videos that are encoded with ffmpeg and easy h264 uses ffmpeg, if you are not uploading to youtube then the program is great. Try mencoder + mp4box (thats what the pldx tool uses and in my opinion mencoder works a lot better than ffmpeg) if you want a working yt vid.

Other than youtube causing an overall sound desynchronization by moving the sound up by 0.5 seconds or so I haven’t noticed anything with this method. Though if it causes problems with this as well it’s obviously moot.

I linked it more because reaction said he’d lost the .bat to convert to h.264 and as such was using xvid. :)

save that to movie.bat

download http://kurtnoise.free.fr/mp4tools/MP4Box-0.4.5.zip
download http://sourceforge.net/projects/mplayer-win32/files/MPlayer%20and%20MEncoder/revision%2031170/MPlayer-p4-svn-31170.7z/download

copy the files to a folder, make sure that the files are copied so that mp4box.exe and mencoder.exe are in the same folder, then put movie.bat in the same folder

open command prompt
cd yourdirectory
movie “yourmoviename.extension” “fps” “bitrate”

I used the pldx tool to encode my video and i still had the youtube problem…
Sound broken and undesired slow-motions throughout the video. :/

I think i will just upload a .wmv file to youtube. The quality on youtube is always terrible anyway.
Screw it.
