Cucusoft Conversion Blocks

FlyingIsFun1217 · 12-17-2007, 05:52 PM

Hey!

I'm using Cucusoft to convert some videos to zune .wmv format. Thing is, most of the video plays on the zune fine, but after a certain while, it starts to get 'choppy', as in, the video gets really blocky, and it seems like the video blends into a bunch of multi-color ten by ten pixel squares.

This is somewhat disappointing, and I was wondering if there is any way to 'remedy' this? Is there a certain setting I should use? Should I give it realtime processing power?

Another note: I have videos that are both resized using Cucusoft and not, and both show the symptoms.

Thanks!

I have a suggestion... DONT USE CUCUSOFT

MediaCell Universal Video Converter is reliable but if you download set the optimization for either Apple iPod or iPhone for your Zune

PM for link

It's probably a video bitrate issue. Just increasing the bitrate should take care of it. 500-700kbs is good quality
