this tool becomes very annoying..
but anyway
i made 2 rips during the night
and both rips were about 550Mb with vbr 600kb/s
even if i set vbr to 900, 1000.. does not matter.. shit but ok
deleted all
reinstalled
and now i get error
'mpeg2dec3.dll is not valid Avisynth 1.0 plugin'

how to fix that?

*cough* beginner*cough-ha*

If you use Gkot you better NOT set BITRATE yourself unless you know what you're doing....beginners let gkot set the bitrate - it will calculate this for you ..
So at the first pass xvid you don't have to fill in shit - the bitrate to code at will be calculated by gnot ( by your settings) and passed on to Vdub & xvid...

Hehe you thought it was that easy eh ? :twisted:

so at birate tab select : Calculate average bitrate & set 1 cd = 700 mb - make sure Calculate frame overhead is selected
also set sound at 1vbr mp3 - the quality , at audio I leave you to decide but try and stay above 128
Then go to resolution tab ; set resolution as you see fit ; but don't push your luck - you'll probably have to adjust this later on...

Then hit save and encode (bottom left)
Then a new menu will appear ; select lancos if it's a sharp dvd
If you have to de- interlace use field deinterlace here ; NOT the fast one..
Finally at bottom right, select 5% compressibility check - and let it run for 10 minutes ; you will be thrown back to the resolution Tab;Now at the bottom make sure that the one number stays close to 0.175 and the other between 55% and 70% - If not crop resolution until they APROX. do !
Hit save and encode again if it has closed itself, and then bottom left hit it again.

Now you will be thrown to the codec tabs:
First go to audio : select audio , then either just mux (ac3)or mp3 vbr
then go to Xvid GO TO advanced options and select all shit you already know....
Do the same for second pass and then hit Add job to encoding queue at the codec .....


Very crude and basic but you should get a decent rip now....
Don't be ashamed to crop resolution - it's your first rip.....
It's better to have 900bitrate at 512 width than a 600bitrate at a width of 640

vaya con dios man

no no
dont delete
tns ohgodnotanotherone
but i made all like u said.
GK calculated bitrate itself for 700Mb about 900kb/s
but i got avi with 600kb/s
i increased size of CD to 800Mb
and GK said that now it's 1050kb/s
but i got avi with bitrate about 600kb/s again..
now i deleted GK and start ripping again with size of cd 700Mb
so now i am at work so 'll see what i got this time at the evening.

btw thar rip (550Mb)
was really good. q of pic. good.
but i understand i will be killed coz of such rip.

sound...
on dvd sound is not great. even some artifacts.
so 112 kb is more than enough for that movie.
i made 112,128,160,256...
and there is no big difference between them (fot this movie of course)

550 mb avi ?
Tell me is there a DD 5.1 soundtrack on it ? Or even DTS ?

If so , DON't select "Just MUX " at the audio codec ; select MP3 128 VBR .....
There will be more room (mb's ) free for video now...---> can now increase/improve bitrate or resolution...

w8
550 = video+audio (mp3)
i set movie to 700Mb
it calculated audio size (100Mb)
and said 600Mb for video left.
and after first pass GK said that size of video stream will be 600Mb
and yet one time said that video br is 900kb/s
but after second pass i got 450Mb video + 100Mb mp3 = 550Mb AVI.
all was calculated by GK and i made all like u said.

Well I don't understand it, I always leave it checked and didn't have problems with it, but apparently, for XVID you should not Check "Calculate Frame overhead".....or so says this fine manual....:
http://www.doom9.org/index.html?/gknot-basics-xvid.htm

And have you checked your 2nd pass settings !!!???

Did u want to deinterlace yours rip?
GK is buggy if the 2nd pass starts, u can only fix it with a script.

Just post the .log to understand the problem.
GK is sometimes not a solution of striking simplicity, but for me remained indispensable ;)
I`ve the same prob sometimes if i must deinterlace...
