_anything_ is better than a GT120.

Look for a used GTX 460, you can find one for ~$80.

Can you pls post output of "fw_printenv ethaddr" alone?

Anyone seen Hodejegerne / Headhunters?
Seems to be Hollywood-level movie made nowhere near Hollywood. kewl.

Quote from Seb66 :

Cheers for all the info's! So, say I uploaded a 30fps, 720p, 10mbit/s vid to youtube.. Does youtube end up auto compressing it into 8mbit/s anyway? So I would probably get better quality compressing it to about 8mbit/s with StaxRip myself, even though I could compress it to 10+mbit/s?

YouTube's average bitrate for 720p is somewhere between 3 and 5 mbit/s, 8 mbit/s is for 1080p.
But YouTube will recompress it no matter what settings you use, you just can't force it to use your encode - so higher bitrate -> better quality.
(not as if you should be using constant bitrate anyways.. for youtube, CRF=23 is perfect.)

X264vfw - H.264/mpeg4 AVC codec
^ yeap that's whats with FFDShow when you install it, and is one of the many codecs available when you render an AVI.
And it changes the colours, goes lighter and softer looking. Like I said I've tried em all, and done some pretty indepth tests before I settled on my choices

I said x264, not x264vfw.
x264vfw stopped being updated looong time (few years, in fact) ago.

Quote from S14 DRIFT :

Difference on a computer monitor would be neglible.

Yeah, but difference in uploading time between movie with 3 mbit/s bitrate and 10 mbit/s bitrate would be quite noticeable on typical British connection with 1 mbit/s upload (not as noticeable with typical Latvian connection with 100 or even 1000 mbit/s upload but that's another talk).

Ever heard of SSIM and PNSR?
x264 beats all known H.264 encoders by these parameters at comparable encoding time, and if you can invent some better characteristic to compare image quality - go ahead.

Oh, actually, never mind. You're talking about stuff you have no idea about just to look smart, like you always do. I wonder why I even bothered to respond to you.

I dunno you guys all are gay
I'd lay down on my back

Quote from CoolColJ :

What do you think the Sony AVC encoder is?

Proprietary crap

Quote from CoolColJ :

I've tried all the different codecs out there from WMV to ones that come with FFDShow, and they all change the colour/tone in various ways, which is unacceptable.
Mainconcept and Sony AVC were the best in this regard

Obviously you haven't tried x264 which is well known as being best H.264 encoder in the world.

Quote from CoolColJ :

check out my GT5 vids for an idea of quality

http://www.youtube.com/user/CoolColJ24

lol
proper H.264 encoder could achieve that with 2~4 mbit/s
just saying, nothing personal

SennaSS, you're from Britain yet you can't form your sentences properly?..

I've installed LFS Today, went on friends account, and some strange things happened with S1/S2 cars/tracks. Heres some pics:

That usually happens to people who prefer stealing stuff instead of paying for it.

Yay, always wanted to have this game.
Downloading at the moment, thanks! <3

Quote from Stölzel :

Then Play again iR and not here as "Demo-Racer" :rolleyes:

I played LFS S2 at my friends house and it wasn't any better than demo.

Quote from maxis123 :

LFS -sim! ,, "" I.R, R.F..." - "sim"

lol iR is 100 times more sim than LFS

Quote from Cornys :

Actually, for the most part I've found Google and Bing are the exact same.

Of course they are exact same - because Bing steals Google's results.

Well I'll live longer than you, because delta of my age and average life expectancy in my country is higher than same thing of yours and your country. Too bad for you

Sorry, i dont wanna join on a team where the leader is a kid with no responsability for they team members

He's way less of a kid than you.

I'd expect you to know that output filesize doesn't depends on input filesize.
18 MB for 4 minutes is 600 kbit/s. I'm quite sure you're not sure about quality.. there isn't any.

blah blah microsoft paid me so now i am bingzealot and i have 1000 of invalid points to make about how google is bad

Type the units into Bing and it'll give the the ratio and you can do the math quite easy.

Bing is trash. Just saying.
