Re: [LAU] AVSynthesis videos on-line

Thanks again, Florin. Have you considered writing a HOWTO or a dedicated Web site for this information ? It's obvious you know it very well, and it would be great to have a 1-stop web site for it. Btw, the Vimeo site converts my videos, but I don't know to what format. Given what you've seen and understand of the site, what would be my best-choice options for rendering the AVSynthesis images to video ? As you note, I'm currently rendering to 800x600, but I'll gladly switch to something better if you advise. Here's the routine I'm using for creating 1-pass videos from the AVS images: mencoder -oac copy -audiofile ../render.wav -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4:vme=1:keyint=30:vbitrate=1000 -vf scale=800:600 -noskip -mf type=tga:fps=30 -o foo.avi mf://@list "list" is of course the ordered list of the TGA images. The routine creates decent video, not as good as I'd like but at least the resulting file is not so huge. FYI, there's a 500 MB limit per week for uploads at Vimeo. Just to clarify: AVS does no rendering to video at all, it simply creates the image sequence. I have control over the recorder frame rate and the image width & height, that's all that's available to me in AVS itself. Thanks again for your assistance, Florin, it is greatly apreciated. I'm starting to understand this stuff better, but it's a lot for my tired old brain to learn and comprehend. :) Best, dp
