Tips
Tips.1 Click the option button, a window will be popped up. Here you can set resolution, frame rate, width/length ration, video bitrate, codec, conversion speed, sample rate, audio channels and audio bitrate. Here are some tips about the options.
Option
1. Resolution: Choose different resolution for different devices.
2. Frame rate: 25fps is PAL, 30fps is NTSC.
3. Length/Width ration: 4:3 is common display; 16:9 is width screen display.
4. For ‘Codec’ setting. There are two choice for you — ‘H.264’ & ‘xVID’. If you want to know the difference between this two codes. You can refer this post for more info. ‘H.264’ provides higher quality with less file size. But the conversion time is longer than ‘xVID’. If you care about the video definition. ‘H.264’ would be your choice. I prefer ‘xVID’ to ‘H.264’. Because it’s difficult to distinguish the difference between ‘H.264’ and ‘xVID’ on iPod’s little screen.
5. Video bitrate and audio bitrate: higher bitrate provides better quality with lager size and longer conversion time.
Tips.2 DVD movie often has a black border on both the top and bottom, if you want to cut it and watch your DVD with full screen; you can click the “cropping” button. Then a window will be popped up, on this window, you can drag the yellow frame to cut any parts you don’t want when you preview the DVD movie, or you can use the crop window which set in advanced on the top of the window.
