the program not the.....well you know

been using v2.52 for a while now.  a while back I downloaded 2.6 but never installed it.  grabbed 2.7 today.

anyway not sure what is going on.  with 2.52 when you drag a VOB file into it it instantly shows the bit rate etc.  with the newer versions it goes through a whole process (bit rate numbers change a bunch) and then shows the bit rate etc.

thing is I'm getting different numbers (bit rates) with the old version vs the newer ones.

with the old version I'm getting 9555.  with the new version a soon as I drag it in it says 9555 for split second and then begins the "process" and when it's done the number says 1977!!  way different.

I tried it with a different DVD and the numbers were different but very close to each other.  oh yea it doesn't matter whether the codecs are installed or not.  they aren't by default in 2.5 but one in the other versions.


here are some screen shots

with 2.5



same one with 2.7




now the other dvd.  close but slightly different





what would cause the difference from 9555 to 1977??  what the hell is going on??

downloaded AVIcodec_1.2_b113 and it list the bite rate as 9554.


the show is 103 mins long with ac3 256 audio.  the folder is 1.65 gb.  does this sound right??

that seems like the file is small, I've done some 100 min shows @ 8000cbr, and the files were over 5gigs without the audio.

yea I found out he filmed it in 4 hour mode so that is why it's so compressed.  the footage is great though.
