Request or Question

[Charlie]

I am wanting to stream my DVD collection from my PC to my PS3. I want to use H.264/MEPG-4 AVC preferably. I could settle for MPEG-4 SP I have tried just about every conversion now for this and the one that worked was the generic DivX using the 720x480 (NTSC) setting. This would be fine but I want it 1 gig in size or less. Is there someone that has made one of the 2 formats that I need? When I try the PSP or PS3 selection and stream to my PS3 it says unsupported format. Zune did the same thing as well.

Last time I checked there was a working PS3 method (see post #6 for the gory details) - don't know about size.
Might be easier just to use your generic divx but split the movie using the scissors - just pretend it is a flipper (but you won't actually have to get up to flip it over) ;)

Thanks I will try this one out later this morning.

I am getting this error window using that.

I can create an output using the 6 channel option without an Mencoder error with the profile from the first post in that thread. Audio channel mapping seems ok so maybe they fixed something. :)

This plays fine in Quicktime (see image) but I don't have a PS3 to test on.

If I force an error (leaving out file label) the Mencoder command line is

"C:\Program Files\SlySoft\CloneDVDmobile\apps\mencoder.exe" - -af volume=10 -aspect 16:9 -of avi -oac lavc -ovc x264 -channels 6 -lavcopts acodec=libfaac:abitrate=384 -x264encopts bitrate=810:level_idc=31:bframes=3:frameref=2:nops nr:nossim -vf scale=720:480,crop=720:480:0:0,harddup -info name="" -ofps 24000/1001 -o "J:\Videos for YP-P2\H264_6chnolabel.mp4" 109 TCE

Your error is (leaving out file name for comparison)

"C:\Program Files (x86)\SlySoft\CloneDVDmobile\apps\mencoder.exe" - -af volume=10 -of avi -oac lavc -ovc x264 -channels 6 -lavcopts acodec=libfaac:abitrate=384 -x264encopts bitrate=1323:level_idc=31:bframes=3:frameref=2:nop snr:nossim -vf pp=fd,scale=720:480,crop=720:480:0:0,harddup -aspect 1.777778 -info name="" -ofps 30000/1001 -o "C:\Users\Charlie\Desktop\HORTON_HEARS_A_WHO.mp4" 232 TCE


You can see several differences. Try using the profile I posted above (choose 720x480 NTSC TV as output resolution and set quality to the bitrate desired).
