The higher the resolution, the worse the convert T_T
Now I realize that VLC support many things, but nothing is perfect :D I hope you will improve it

The 2nd picture:

Code: Select all

From: .avi audio: bit rate: 256 kbps, audio format: mpeg layer-3 video: frame rate: 23frame/sec, data rate: 216 kbps, video sample size: 24 bit, video compression: FFDS To: video-WMV+WMA (ASF)
The resolution of the first movie is higher and it happen more frequently.

You need to use higher bitrates.

At the profile combobox I choose video-WMV+WMA (ASF), then click "edit selected profile", at video codec tab set bitrate to 512kb/s (the bitrate of source video is 216kb/s), and others leave default, save and convert but it still bad like that, when I view properties of the converted file the bitrate is 0 ???

512 kbps isn't enough for 720x480 resolution video. More like 2 000 is required.

yeah it worked !
720px × 480 set the bit rate to 2000, so how much I should set the bitrate with 1024px × 576 ?? 10.000 ? :shock: How to know that number ??? And is there any harm if I set the bitrate too high ??

PS: 8192 is max, cannot set higher :| But it seem to be enough for high resolution, thanks

Trial and error. (or check what scene guys are using for their movie rips)
And is there any harm if I set the bitrate too high ??
Filesize will grow or streaming will demand more bandwidth.
