Does anyone know how to get more than the five quality
settings? Why have a slider if there are only five possible
settings, anyway? Going from 128kbps to 2096kbps with
nothing in between, is crazy and very frustrating.

The property pages for both the video and audio encoder,
that you can see using GraphEdit give you a lot more control.
Encoding/transcoding using GraphEdit is in real time, not the
super fast times you get using the normal interface.

Both GSpot and Media Player Classic info show the Cobra
Encoder for files made either way.

Luck;

Update; I got it working in GraphEdit so that it takes 6-7min. to
convert a 42min. MPEG2 file. Having access to the encoder's
property page will let me track down a couple of gliches that still
remain. Right now the graph is as simple as possible, so I have a
base position to work from.

---------------------------------
It is:
<File Source (Async)>
<MPEG-2 Splitter> {My source is MPEG-2}
<ATI MPEG Video Decoder>
<ATI MPEG Audio Decoder>

(Here is where I'll try the Noise filter and Scaler)

<ATI MPEG Video Encoder> {check property page}
<ATI MPEG Audio Encoder> {check property page}

<ATI MPEG Multiplexer> {Set output wrapper}
<ATI MPEG File Writer>
-----------------------------------------

So I've got 6-7min. transcodes working and am trying
to map out stable configurations that work with my
various players. My last was working fine in VLC (which
used to crash) but is now not showing up with CoreAVC
in Media Player Classic. Getting the "Generic MP4"
wrapper to work is becoming more problematic than
using the AVI wrapper. Much more experimentation to go.
