#Better than tmpgenc 6 Pc#

I tried those settings some time ago, to see if the result would be ok, it was, and I had left them there since. So, it's definitely good to have it there, as plan B. It took TMPEGenc alone about 23 hours!!!! The quality, IMHO, leaves a lot to be desired.Д«oth were similar movies (length, theme) both difficult subjects (water scenes) both with high bitrate settings (max 2600 -Min 1800 - Max avg 2400)Д«UT I now have an alternative, if CCE decides to go on strike again. I did a crash recovery, so the audio files etc, were already there. I thought of it as a good opportunity to test drive TMEGenc to see first hand what the rave is about.

Next I tried 'Castaway' with 1.0.7 b1 (as it came out) and CCE froze the PC at about 72% (Second time ever - after 60+ encodings).

The whole process with CCE 5 pass, took exactly 12 hours. Well, I did not ran such an exhaustive, technical and detailed test, but I did something similar, out of necessity:ДЇirst I encoded 'Wateworld' with 1.0.6 b4. I believe the effort to implement the support was worthwhile. Nonetheless, TMPGenc represents a viable (not to speak of legal, affordable and continously developed) alternative. Peak and average bitrates were in the same ballpark.Д¬omparing allocated bitrates and resulting quantitizations between the two compressors clearly showed that CCE is *a lot* better able to determine spots needing higher and lower allocations. Obviously the resulting output files were about the same size and TMPGenc took *a lot* longer (I refrained from timing it besides the fact that I went to sleep and it still hadn't finished until afternoon or so. This does *not* mean that TMPGenc's picture quality is twice as bad as CCE's, it is merely a scientific way of looking at the compression quality and 'smaller is better'. Maximum quantitizations were equally distinct: 4.98 for CCE as opposed to 10.53. I compared the resulting output files (actually, the middle CD) using Birate Analyzer and while TMPGenc is doing well, it just isn't there yet.Д¬CE yielded an average quantitization factor (the smaller, the better) of 1.65 whereas TMPGenc only reached 3.83. I found this a rather fair comparison and I am certain that 2 pass CCE would have yielded similar results.

I ran a (very loooong) test comparing 'Contact' TMPGenc 2 pass VBR with CCE 3 pass VBR.
