[MPlayer-dev-eng] calculating best divxopts for mencoder

[Marcel Hild]

hi,
 i recorded quite a lot from tv to divx. of course this was done with
 a fixed rate of 1000, min/max_quant=8 and other params.
 now it came to my mind, that i could re-encode the files to other
 settings, improving the compression ratio without affecting the
 visual quality. that could be done somehow by analyzing the
 divx2pass.log. my first quick search on the net gave those urls:

http://divx4log.narod.ru/
http://strony.wp.pl/wp/zbychol1/morphix.htm
http://www.videocoding.de/forum/viewtopic.php?topic=112&forum=2&33

 do you know of any tools for linux, or e.g. perl scripts that 
 do the job? or is it completley stupid to rencode the files,
 because that would affect quality anyway to a point that it isnt
 worth the size that is saved?

 thanks for any thougts....

marcel
