8095 6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1157 <LI>Choose some sane image dimensions. The dimensions of the resulting image
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1158 should be divisible by 16.</LI>
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1159 <LI>If you capture the video with the vertical resolution higher than half of
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1160 the full resolution (i.e. 288 for PAL or 240 for NTSC), make sure you
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1161 turned deinterlacing on. Otherwise you'll get a movie which is distorted
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1162 during fast-motion scenes and the bitrate controller will be probably even
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1163 unable to retain the specified bitrate as the interlacing artifacts produce
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1164 high amount of detail and thus consume lot of bandwidth. You can enable
9644 0fe056bdb135 vop -> vf change, small fixes. The Polish documentation should be checked for correctness. jonas parents: 9617 diff changeset	1165 deinterlacing with <CODE>-vf pp=DEINT_TYPE</CODE>. Usually
8095 6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1166 <CODE>pp=lb</CODE> does a good job, but it can be matter of personal
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1167 preference. See other deinterlacing algorithms in the manual and give it a
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1168 try.</LI>
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1169 <LI>Crop out the dead space. When you capture the video, the areas at the
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1170 edges are usually black or contain some noise. These again consume lots of
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1171 unnecessary bandwidth. More precisely it's not the black areas themselves
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1172 but the sharp transitions between the black and the brighter video image
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1173 which do but that's not important for now. Before you start capturing,
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1174 adjust the arguments of the <CODE>crop</CODE> option so that all the crap
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1175 at the margins is cropped out. Again, don't forget to keep the resulting
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1176 dimensions sane.</LI>
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1177 <LI>Watch out for CPU load. It shouldn't cross the 90% boundary for most of
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1178 the time. If you have a large capture buffer, MEncoder can survive an
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1179 overload for few seconds but nothing more. It's better to turn off the 3D
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1180 OpenGL screensavers and similar stuff.</LI>
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1181 <LI>Don't mess with the system clock. MEncoder uses the system clock for
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1182 doing A/V sync. If you adjust the system clock (especially backwards in
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1183 time), MEncoder gets confused and you will lose frames. This is an
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1184 important issue if you are hooked to a network and run some time
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1185 synchronization software like NTP. You have to turn NTP off during the
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1186 capture process if you want to capture reliably.</LI>
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1187 <LI>Don't change the <CODE>outfmt</CODE> unless you know what you are doing
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1188 or your card/driver really doesn't support the default (YV12 colorspace).
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1189 In the older versions of MPlayer/MEncoder it was necessary to specify the
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1190 output format. This issue should be fixed in the current releases and
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1191 <CODE>outfmt</CODE> isn't required anymore, and the default suits the most
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1192 purposes. For example, if you are capturing into DivX using libavcodec and
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1193 specify <CODE>outfmt=RGB24</CODE> in order to increase the quality of the
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1194 captured images, the captured image will be actually later converted back
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1195 into YV12 so the only thing you achieve is a massive waste of CPU power.
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1196 </LI>
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1197 <LI>To specify the I420 colorspace (<CODE>outfmt=i420</CODE>), you have to
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1198 add an option <CODE>-vc rawi420</CODE> due to a fourcc conflict with an
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1199 Intel Indeo video codec.</LI>
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1200 <LI>There are several ways of capturing audio. You can grab the sound either
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1201 using your soundcard via an external cable connection between video card
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1202 and line-in, or using the built-in ADC in the bt878 chip. In the latter
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1203 case, you have to load the <b>btaudio</b> driver. Read the
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1204 <CODE>linux/Documentation/sound/btaudio</CODE> file (in the kernel tree,
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1205 not MPlayer's) for some instructions on using this driver.</LI>
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1206 <LI>If MEncoder cannot open the audio device, make sure that it is really
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1207 available. There can be some trouble with the sound servers like arts
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1208 (KDE) or esd (GNOME). If you have a full duplex soundcard (almost any
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1209 decent card supports it today), and you are using KDE, try to check the
6b4200d4b64b cosmetics diego parents: 8079 diff changeset	1210 "full duplex" option in the sound server preference menu.</LI>
