[mythtv-users] encoding for Samsung Galaxy S i9000

[Patrick Davila]

The following works well for the Nexus1 & Droid:
Good quality:
ffmpeg -i inputfile.mpg -aspect 16:9 -s 800x480 -vcodec libx264 -b 480k -r
13 -acodec libfaac -ab 128k -sameq -pass 1 -f rawvideo -an -y /dev/null &&
ffmpeg -i inputfile.mpg -aspect 16:9 -s 800x480 -vcodec libx264 -b 480k -r
13 -acodec libfaac -ab 128k -ac 2 -sameq -pass 2 outputfile.mp4

Very good quality:
fmpeg -i inputfile.mpg -aspect 16:9 -s 800x480 -vcodec libx264 -b 1000k -r
50 -acodec libfaac -ab 128k -sameq -pass 1 -f rawvideo -an -y /dev/null &&
ffmpeg -i inputfile.mpg -aspect 16:9 -s 800x480 -vcodec libx264 -b 1000k
-r 50 -acodec libfaac -ab 128k -ac 2 -sameq -pass 2 outputfile.mp4


It does a 2 pass encoding which removes any artifacts you get with a
single pass. I have the same setup in Mythexport and forwarded my settings
to the maintainer but the mythexport page has not been updated with this
information. Let me know if you want the mythexport entry.
