But by it's very nature, that means you change the video from 30fps Telecined to 24fps progressive. It's not like I lose the DVD's if I wanted choice in the future :).. but in those cases where Mencoder detects the subs properly and renders them white with black outline (or even sometimes black with White outline) they look really good and are easy to read. Not as good as ass fansubs, of course, but the next best thing IMHO. Unfortunately, that leaves about 10% of the videos I've tried with no good sub, since they get rendered in semi-transparent shades of grey. (though to be honest, in most cases, I still prefer viewing with these, but it's far from optimal.) My standard recipe for anime is simply: mencoder title.vob -sid 0 -aid 129 -vf pullup,softskip,hqdn3d -ofps 24000/1001 -oac copy -ovc x264 -x264encopts crf=10:threads=2 -o movie.avi The bitrate will be very high, but the encoding is fast enough that I can watch the video as it's encoding. And the quality is good enough that I can always produce a more size optimized encode from it with little loss of quality. But since these aren't being transmitted over Internet, there's really no point. _______________________________________________ MPlayer-users mailing list MPlayer-users@xxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.mplayerhq.hu/mailman/listinfo/mplayer-users
