Looking for more CLI encoding commands

[evilpenguin]

I'm trying to put together a pretty extensive selection of encoding profiles for the next version of my plug-in. I've already got updated version of all of my current encoding profiles as well as ports of Sage's stock encoding profiles and now I'm curious if anyone else has any handy CLI encoding commands (custom or modified versions of Sage's) that they think other people would find useful.

(I'm especially interested if anyone has any HDTV encoding profiles that actually work )

Hi EP, your thread is looking a bit lonely so here's a couple that I use for 1 pass mencoder using Sharktooth's Low Rate Custom Matrix.

mencoder %input% -demuxer 2 -vf kerndeint,hqdn3d -ovc xvid -xvidencopts quant_type=mpeg:hq_ac:fixed_quant=3:max_key_interval=250:vhq=1:chroma_me:trellis:bvhq=1:quant_intra_matrix=INTRAEQMV3LR.TXT:quant_inter_matrix=INTEREQMV3LR.TXT -oac mp3lame -lameopts cbr:br=128 -noodml -o %output%

mencoder %input% -demuxer 2 -vf kerndeint,hqdn3d -ovc xvid -xvidencopts cartoon:quant_type=mpeg:hq_ac:fixed_quant=5:max_key_interval=250:vhq=4:chroma_me:trellis:bvhq=1:quant_intra_matrix=INTRAEQMV3LR.TXT:quant_inter_matrix=INTEREQMV3LR.TXT -oac mp3lame -lameopts cbr:br=128 -noodml -o %output%

First one for standard video gives bitrate of between 800-1600Kbs depending on content.
Second one for cartoon gives bitrate of between 500-800Kbs depending on content.

And one for avi to PAL DVD format mpeg

mencoder %imput% -of mpeg -mpegopts format=dvd -oac lavc -ovc lavc -lavcopts aspect=4/3:acodec=ac3:abitrate=192:vcodec=mpeg2video:vrc_buf_size=1835:vrc_maxrate=9800:vbitrate=7500:keyint=12:trell:mbd=2:precmp=2:subcmp=2:cmp=2:dia=-10:predia=-10:cbp:mv0:vqmin=1:lmin=1:dc=10 -ofps 25  -o %output%
