is there any place on the web (the TMPGEnc site doesn't offer any help, as far as I can see) that details all the options in TMPGEnc?
for example, right now I'm using CQ_VBR as the encodingmethod.
is this better or worse than CQ, or CBR?
in the CQ or CQ_VBR settings, is it better to have the max bitrate high (at 8000) and put quality at 50% or put quality at 100% and have max bitrate at 5000?
(trying to fit file on one DVD+R)
is there any way to accurately estimate the resulting file size for a certain method?
right now I choose a bright "action" sequence in the film, encode a couple of minutes and do a linear approximation, by hand, but I'd like a better way.
