NAME
divxcomp - Calculate approx. size for ripped avi movies
SYNOPSIS
divxcomp
COPYRIGHT
divxcomp is (c) 2003 by Marc Leeman <mleeman@users.sourceforge.net>
DESCRIPTIONS
divxcomp is a X(7) based calculator to give an average for the DivX :-)
bit-rates used to encode avi movies.
DivX :-) 4.x is extremely difficult to calculate as the sizes of the
video vary depending on the amount of movement and colors, so this
gives an average. Your results may be higher or lower than the
specified size! A 2 pass rip should normally give much better quality
than a 1 pass rip, and mostly also produce a smaller file size. It is
however impossible to calculate this accurately, so an intelligent
guess is made.
I will not take responsibility for any miscalculations or damages
caused by this.
BUGS
None known.
