WAOUH!
Ok, two things here. A question, and a notice.
The question first:
* Why, when I capture through the ATI TVTuner, using say "Good quality" or "best quality" (thus MPEG2) or any custom MPEG2 -- the quality is.. ehm.. CRAPPY?! Detailed: it looks, feels.. 'pixelated' ... just.. not good.. maybe I can get a screenshot if necessary. It's just really.. not satisfactory!!!
So this led me to discover this:
* DiVX in REALTIME!!! (I thought DiVX encoding was a real long process) The AIW RADEON for me (system details below) does DiVX in REALTIME!!! Now the ATI TV Tuner doesn't let me choose much options, so the quality is so so. (Tip for others: use DiVX Fast motion, NOT low motion when capturing). In virtual dub or avi/io I can get a little better (changing the bitrate for example)... However, my system pretty much maxes out at 320*240 -- if I try 640*480, i drop frames.
Can anyone help why mpeg2 recording.. is NOT useable!? (not to me, at all! -- gees I upgraded from Matrox Marvel G200TV, MJPEG, I thought that was SO MUCH BETTER. for now I'm doing DiVX, it's nicer..but I know mpeg2 SHOULD do better!)
Thanks,
