    So I recently had the opportunity to utilize ConvertXtoDVD 2.1.3.160 to convert a HD-standardized DiVX video. I had the quality on the highest setting and compared to Avi2DVD (using HCEnc at Best/MPEG) it appears well below.

    Anyone have experience in ConvertXtoDVD and the quality. I would love nothing more than to utilize Avi2DVD for all of the videos I have however, it does not give me the ability to cram more than 1 onto a disc or the nice little menu feature.

    Hi there,

    Please provide us a full conversion log.

    Without that, we have no idea what bitrate was used on your files etc...

    ConvertXtoDVD will reduce the bitrate [bold]if necessary[/bold] to make your conversion fit on a DVD5.

    On good quality input files, I usually get 8303 kb/s bitrate.

    This will fit on a DVD5.

    If you choose DVD9 as the output, *IF* convertXtoDVD can offer more bitrate (BASED on your input file) it will.

    Thanks for the input.

    To log the output would that be the "Log engine messages" check box?

    Hi there,

    [X] Log Engine Messages will just log very detailed engine messages, that probably just the VSO developpers would understand anyway :)

    ConvertXtoDVD will still log all the good stuff...

    You can find your logs here:

    [bold]C:\Documents and Settings\[USERNAME]\Application Data\Vso[/bold]
