which matrix do you use?

I typically use the matrix one lower than the average bitrate. Meaning, if my bitrate averages out at 4.3 mb or so, I'll use the one designated for 3-3.5 mb.

KVCD Notch for high compression movies, default for others.

The one that comes with Procoder 2! Regards

I have to admit that I find these matrices very confusing and I'm totally left behind by threads arguing the merits of alternative settings. I can, however, see the advantage of optimising an encoder's behaviour for individual sources. Literally. That's why I'm exploring AutoQMatEnc with DVD-RB. It does it for you!

@m1ckran - you would do well to explore using Rockas's wonderful Rebuilder Matrix Editor. PS Ashes coming home to OZ in 6 months :) Regards

i find AutoQ2 (Avamat7) is a good matrix for anything, so i use it for all my projects.

They tell you. EG 3 "High-Low (3500-4000)". The numbers are the average bitrates the matrix is good for. Regards

Does using a matrix affect the encoding time?

This is a pretty interesting thread. I've done a lot of stuff with my backups but have never touched the matrix side of things. Except with which does it automatically.
