  • b&w output mpeg after encoding

    I have grabbed a few minutes and i'm getting very few dropped
    frames. however, when i do encoding with lsx or panasonic encoder,
    sometimes I get black and white parts of the movie. Maybe it is caused
    by those dropped frames od i don't have something set up correctly in
    the encoder.
    If you experienced such problem, please let me know the solution.

    thank you.

      Finally there's nothing with time.
      Image goes from color to B&W, then from B&W to color and from color to B&W, and I don't know why.
      I tried with LSX (matrox ed), DVmpeg and Xing Encoder.
      My settings are 352 x 288, 24 bits, 37424 trames, 24.998 trames/sec, 1339 Ko/sec, RRIcm.
      My video input is PAL.

      Please HELP!!!!!!!!!

        see my post 'Drivers' with the thumbs down thing. This is a *known* bug in one of the matrox DLL files, they've known about it for about 2 months now. Fixed yet? NO.

        Get on the horn, call Matrox and complain. You know for a fact that I will be doing that tomorrow..

          Until the problem is fixed, try using a different MPEG driver. It has fixed the problem for me. Here is a link to one of them.

            Hi ppl;

            I had this porb with my RR-G too; the morgan solution is a possibility; but I wasn't too pleased with the video quality. You could try it out; but if you're not happy with the result you could try the PICVIDEO solution, I'm quit happy with it.
            PICVIDEO is just anther MJPEG CODEC; it can replace the bad matrox codec's until they worked out a solution.
            This PICvideo codec can be found at http://www.jpg.com/imagetech_video.htm

            Good Luck.
