Output Settings

Various types of Output settings are available in Cucusoft DVD Ripper. The following table provides an overview of the tasks you can complete using settings.

Parameter Description

Video Bitrate:

Video bitrate of the output MPEG file.
For VCD the video bit rate must be between 650 and 1150 Kbits.
For SVCD the video bit rate must be lower than 2600 Kbits (2376 recommended).
Default is : 1150

Audio Bitrate:

Audio bitrate of the output MPEG file.
For VCD the audio bit rate must be 224 Kbits.
Default is : 224
Motion Search:
Compression speed optimization . You may get noise around motions
Good : best quality (slow)
Normal : normal quality
Bad : Bad quality (fast)
Default is : Good
Calculation mode:
CPU calculation mode.
0 : MMX (works only on Intel MMX processors)
1 : 3DNow (for AMD user)
2 : SSE2 for IntelP4 processor
3 : Normal (slow) don't perform MMX calculation
Default is : Auto detected
DCT/iDCT:
DCT and iDCT routines.
0 : MMX for MMX processor
1 : SSE2 for IntelP4 processor
2 : FPU (highest quality)
Default is : Auto detected
Multi Pass:
Allow the audio and video to be read in 2 pass. You can use it if you
encode with TMPGEnc and do a 2Pass VBR.
UNCHECK this if you do CBR or one pass VBR.
Please read readme_1st for more details.
Default is : No
Mux Rate:
Increase the multiplexing rate by Mux_Rate% . Use this to avoid underflow.
Just increase it but the output file will grow up a little.
Default is : VCD = 1.4, SVCD = 5.6
VBV buffer size:
Size of the VBV buffer 20 recommended for VCD, 112 for SCVD.
Default is : 20
Export:
Video format passed to the premiere plugin (compatible with the Video Server)
and to the AVI codec.
Only RGB and YUY2 are supported for AVI
YUY2 is in fact a 4:2:2 YUV format (very good for DivX encoding)
The internal MPEG encoder works only with 4:2:0 this setting is ignored
Default is : RGB24
Pulldown 3:2:
Convert 23.976Hz to 29.97Hz (NTSC Only).
Default is : None
Resolution:
Capture resolution in pixel.
PAL: 352 x 288, NTSC:352 x 240
Default is : 352 x 288
Video Resize:
Video resizing filter.
Nearest neighbor : Get the nearest pixel. (no filtering)
BiLinear : very accurate Slow
BiLinear MMX: very accurate Fast
BiCubic : very accurate bicubic filter very slow
SSE BiCubic : SSE implementation of accurate bicubic filter
Works on PIII or K7 or higher
Pseudo BiCubic : not accurate very fast

Bilinear uses 2*2 nearest points to smooth the picture
BiCubic uses 4*4 nearest points to smooth the picture
TAP filters are 2Pass filters,they give best quality
but are slower.
Max frames:
Maximum number of frames to encode.
Default is : 10000
Ignore Overwrite message:
Don't check if the output file already exists
and always overwrite.
Default is : No
Rip Entire Movie:
Don't check if the output file already exists
and always overwrite.
Default is : No
