Thread: Decent quality FLV to MPEG2 conversion with ffmpeg?

-

hiya,

there's bunch of flv videos i'd archive on dvds, nitpicky dvd player accepts mpeg2 (or various nasty divx formats). don't need convert these, nice watch them family , not on teensy netbook. i've tried few converters, give awful video quality, loss of sound and/or video completely.

ffmpeg -target dvd -s 640x360 gives quality, output file 3 times size of input. tips on how reduce file size without noticeable loss in quality?

alternatively, know -target dvd sets, mean exactly? figure out solution if knew work from, can't seem find exact settings in documentation. they're there in ffmpeg output options should try , modify, , how? in short, "data" coming from, , there way minimise it?

or doomed enterprise? guys do, convert them, or leave them , watch them on computer?

metadata on input , output files below (from ffmpeg -i filename.flv -target dvd -s 640x360 filename.mpg)

code:
input #0, flv, 'filename.flv':   metadata:     duration        : 2986     moovposition    : 28     width           : 640     height          : 360     videocodecid    : avc1     audiocodecid    : mp4a     avcprofile      : 77     avclevel        : 30     aacaot          : 2     videoframerate  : 0     audiosamplerate : 48000     audiochannels   : 2   duration: 00:49:45.51, start: 0.000000, bitrate: n/a     stream #0.0: video: h264, yuv420p, 640x360 [par 1:1 dar 16:9], 25 tbr, 1k tbn, 50 tbc     stream #0.1: audio: aac, 48000 hz, stereo, s16 assuming pal target.  output #0, dvd, 'filename.mpg':   metadata:     encoder         : lavf52.64.2     stream #0.0: video: mpeg2video, yuv420p, 640x360 [par 1:1 dar 16:9], q=2-31, 6000 kb/s, 90k tbn, 25 tbc     stream #0.1: audio: ac3, 48000 hz, stereo, s16, 448 kb/s
awfully sorry if has been asked , answered before, must blind if that's case.
appreciated, in advance!

hi viipu,

have converted videos according link
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1920371

not targeting dvd player, think using codec libx264 reduce size lot compared big mpeg files making.

can connect netbook tv set via vga port? that's way share videos whole family.

how devide circle equal parts reggie,   depending on version, may able use free divide (length) script available here, setting number,   http://park12.wakwak.com/~shp/lc/et/en_aics_script.html   or may (smart guides friends):   1) use polar grid tool right size of circle, 0 concentric dividers , desired number of radial dividers, , ungroup; 2) extend radial dividers; 3) select circle , use scissors tool @ intersections (smart guides intersect ), may need select remaining parts underway.   or may (smart guides friends):   1) create vertical line through top , bottom (or left , right) anchor points line tool; 2) rotate copies @ relevant angles (to half number of cuts division); 3) select circle , use scissors tool @ intersections (smart guides intersect ), may need select remaining parts underway.
