Hey Jonny

thanks for answering my question. I just encoded an episode of Ghost in the Shell: SAC to PMP, and it looks gorgeous. I have UMD movies, and this software gives the UMD quality a run for the money. Great job!

So no one's had any problems with the overclocking @ 333 mhz? I'm just a bit paranoid that I'll burn out my PSP or something.

Hi there !

I am now simply totally satisfied with my settings. Quality is 99% UMD like, if source is at least DVD - always and 100% for sure !!! The secret are first sharpening filter with not too high values (15-20max) and second many many passes. My first perfect sample movie is a 7-pass file, Riddick Directors Cut with about 1,5GB - I�m overwhelmed !! Brightness filter is not needed or recommended, as you can use the top-triggers with malcoms mod instead, which is more felxible.

@Jonny

There is definetely a bottleneck issue depending on the stick and - I suppose - fragmentation on the stick. If there is a stuttering on low bitrates, I have to press stop, the stick-light flashes several times, then go on and the stuttering is gone. Imho I would say increasing the puffer a little bit would be the solution.....

Please try to add "keyint=250" in "Extra->Video Encoder" under WinMEnc, and check whether the keyframe problem is solved or not. If not, try the value "keyint=0" further.

yawoo, I entered ""keyint=250" in "Extra->Video Encoder" under WinMEnc as you said but the encoding process would not start. Perhaps it's just me so it will help if somebody tries this and posts their results also.

Thanks to Jonny for the amazing PMP Mod.

These are much better versions of the videos I submitted earlier along with the addition of TWELVE new PS3 trailers! The version2 quality is twice as sharp as the one before. I'm sure you guys would love to show these visuals to your friends and family to secure yourself a PS3 as a birthday or christmas present in 2006 ;)

@ wooolF

I got your PM. Uhm, not sure how to give a detailed setup but let me try. The softwares I use are :

DVD Decrypter,
Virtualdubmod,
BeLite,
Jonny's PMPmuxer.

To add any DVD's VOB files in Virtualdubmod is a two step process. First step involves you deciding which chapters from the DVD need to be ripped. Then open the DVD with DVD Decrypter. Find the chapter with the most time and you'll be fine. I highly suggest you tweak the settings of DVD Decrypter to make/rip 1 big VOB file for your HDD.

The second step. Open this VOB file in Virtualdubmod and you're back to the usual Xvid encoding methods. Find tutorials at videohelp-dot-com. Also learn how to use the Sharpen filter(gives UMD quality to the result!). Once done, directstream the finished avi file without the audio(read tuts at videohelp on how to remove audio) and let's suppose this audio-less-avi file is 'A' for reference purpose of the final explaination.

Now open the 'stable' BeLite(a BeSweet GUI, google for it!) and open the same VOB in here as well. Choose the MP3 tag and set it according to the settings described at Jonny's website(try 1st page of the thread for link). Let's suppose the resultant CBR mp3 file is 'B'.

Open Jonny's PMP Muxer. Now, as we discussed above, choose 'A' in the first line and 'B' in the second line. Third line is where you decide to save the file and give it a name. Once these 3 steps done, press the GO button and you'll find yourself a nice PMP format file.

Sorry for not going into too much detail. Hope this helped. I'll see if I can take the time out to create a full fledged tut with pics n all. But not anytime soon, too busy creating my collection into PMP format.

everything must be analyzed and benchmarked in the correct way before i touch the reading routines.
there could be different performance with different memstick, but until i get some test on the std 32MB memstick i can't decide if/how to change some stuffs.
everyone should not worry too much about technical aspects (at least everyone not able to give exact data/numbers and technical help :)
if a problem is reported, it will be analyzed and, if possible, sorted

i have ben happily converting my Avi's now i would like to try a few DVDs.

however when i rip a DVD to a 1 file vob with dvd decrypter

Virtualdubmod can open it but only converts the 1st chapter.

I have used the setting in DVD decrypter to not split the files.

It plays ok in Power DVD

any ideas anyone?

Nice work on simple converter .4 miemt, but I still get an error message at the end of the process eventhough the file came out fine.

*EDITED* Please see the following posts for the ready to use package...

it comes in the package.. as command line utility, just put it there in the same folder..

Secondly, to the author,
please check your GUI design, as text and some fields become invisible while using Windows Classic Style:

As opposed to Windows XP Style:

Thanks!

I am packing a ready pack for everyone to use without having to download stuff, put them into folders, move them around etc.

So they can simple Download, UnPack/UnZip, and click and GO!

Please wait, I am uploading it right now. Hopefully that can answer a few questions before they are even asked.
