My command without sound:

ffmpeg -f dshow -rtbufsize 2147.48M -video_size 640x480 -i video="Roxio Video Capture USB" -c:v libx264 -pix_fmt yuv422p -preset ultrafast -bufsize 3968k -crf 0  R:/TestMaisonCorse611.mkv -vsync 1
My video file is not very well (good colors but some screen jumps)

My questions:

  1. I think 29.97 fps is value default. Correct?
  2. The real fps value is 35. Correct?
  3. Is it an issue their 2 different values?
  4. How to force interlaced option?
  5. q is between 2-31 but default and the real value is -1. Is this an issue?

  1. It's the value set by the capture device.

  2. No, that's the processing speed, not media framerate.

  3. n/a

  4. The input isn't detected as interlaced. Check your capture device config. Once set, add -flags +ildct as an output option.

  5. q represents the generic quantizer setting but it is not used by the libx264 encoder.

  • Hi 2 I don't understand how is it possible to have 35 fps (processing speed) with 29,97 fps (capture device)?? 4 VHS is always interlaced, do you think my capture device desinterlaced automaticly? BR
