Displays GOP structure of the encoded stream.This structure varies according to the values of M and N.The more P and B pictures,the higher the efficiency of compression will be.But because only I pictures can be sought,seeking will be less convenient if there are many P and B pictures.To compensate this,I picture will be automatically inserted at scene change.

The initial setting is /IBBPBBPBBPBBPBB/.


Specify the number of (consecutive B picture +1).The valid range is from 1 through 3.B picture stands for bidirectionally predictive-coded picture.Because B picture is coded using forward and backward motion compensation,the efficiency of compression is highest of the three types of pictures (I,P,and B).


Specify the number of (P pictures inserted between adjacent I pictures +1).The valid range is from 1 through 5.P picture stands for predictive-coded picture.It is coded using motion compensation from past I or P picture.The efficiency of compression is lower than that of B pictures,but much higher than that of I pictures.

Changes the noise level to add.


Specify the balance of quantizer characteristics.The more to the left,the more bits allocated to complex parts.


Shows the value of quantizer characteristics.You can directly edit and change the value.The range is from 0 to 100.Decrease this value to reduce the mosquito noise,or increase the value to reduce contouring noise.The recommended range is from 16 to 40.Relatively high value may be recommended for high bitrate.


Changes the value of quantizer characteristics.

Sets the precision of DC coefficients in intra macroblocks to 9 bits.


Sets the precision of DC coefficients in intra macroblocks to 10 bits.If there is a part where luminance is gradually changing,high precision will cause better quality.Or if the bitrate is high,select 10 bits.


Select this to use zigzag scanning order of DCT.This scan order is used in H.261,JPEG,and MPEG-1.If the source is progressive,zigzag scan order may result a good quality.


Alternate scan of DCT coefficients is appropriate for interlaced video.
