I've encoded numerous times now with a ton of different programs. However, even with something like TMPEGNC Pro or Main Concept, the quality after encoding is never as good as it was before encoding. Its decent, but definietly not DVD quality. -Is there anyway, I can minimize the quality lost? -Is the quality always going to suffer from conversion?
the quality you achive is only as good as the file you input I use tmpg awith the use of filters find the conversion to be excelent check this out http://dvd-hq.info/Compression.html
