The parameters in Rate Control and Analysis are probably your best bets. Changing the M.E. algorithm and other parameters related is a start.

Unfortunately I know of no guides or anything. I just swung a dick at values during some test encodes and some perceived to be improved as a result, so I just went with it.

K, thanks, I'll go from there - I guess trial and error is best at actually figuring out how that works.

[IskatuMesk]

Expect your encode times to go up dramatically. The difference between my low and high quality encodes is something like 30-40fps to 4-6fps.

How long has it been since I got sick again? 2 months? fml

[nu1x]

More like a month and a bit, as revealed by post history.

Get well soon.

I don't know how you deal with the constant ailments. I've just gotten a taste of it recently and I feel that I can't do anything.

[IskatuMesk]

I am pretty sick of it honestly. It's really gotten to me these last few months and I just don't feel like doing anything anymore at all.

You were right, no one cares for testing.

[KnoutOut]

I think it would have been more depressing if they did, right?

You might just need to get back in the saddle again. To get a project out the door.

[IskatuMesk]

I couldn't listen to more than a few minutes of that because of the endless pop sounds. And it really comes as no revelation that companies are shit and no one tests anything. Blizzard has, during Diablo 2 and WoW in particular, stated things to this extent several times. Plus, the end products kind of speak for themselves; asscreed is a creatively bankrupt pile of shit.

[KnoutOut]

we should form our own indi group. We should call it DARK TWILIGHT SHADOW GAMES.

[ArcCain]

Add FELL VOID PROPHECY END OF ALL THINGS DESTINY and you might have an idea there. But Mesk and most on CC seem to hate Indi devs. Whiles there may be some good once out there. Most seem to be ass hats that either fail or somehow makes it big for a month.

[nu1x]

If most indy devs would be of a caliber of the guy who made La Mulana all would be well; alas, most indy devs are not of same caliber.

[KnoutOut]

I'm pretty sure we have the biggest caliber anyway.
