Hi all,
I'm currently evaluating this program and initially tried editing some commercials out of an experimental encode I did. The stream was essentially SVCD (480x480, 224kbps audio, etc) except that the video bitrate was 5 Mbps.
I know this is slightly unsual, but bear with me. :)
When I saved the file, it was VERY jumpy, as if every transition from one camera shot to another was struggling. I even got the same results if I just loaded the file, didn't make ANY edits, and then saved it. The file was completely unwatchable.
If I used a vanilla SVCD file (standard 2.52 Mbps video) I don't have any of these problems...MPEG2VCR works like a champ and is VERY fast at saving the edited file, which is nice.
So, the question is...can MPEG2VCR not handle these kinds of non-proprietary MPG files (with strange bitrates, etc)? Can it only handle plain VCD, SVCD and DVD spec'd MPG files?
Thanks,
Chris
