Differences between 2 pass and 1 pass compressing in compressor 2.0

Is there a noticeable difference between 2 pass and 1 pass compression? It seems to me that sometimes 1 pass looks better than 2 passes. Strange...
Thanks,

Hey Girshon
this is more of a compressor forum question, but i can answer it here
theoritically, a 2 pass VBR encode is a MUCH better option if you are limited to space with VERY complex scenes. a cbr encode is optimal for short encodes, or encodes where you have NO space limitation. of course this is how most encoders work.
in compressors case, for SOME reason (unbeknown to me) a 2 pass vbr does not encode to a quality that where i can call acceptable, especially with accepatable bit-rates.
this problem has seemed to come in compressor v2. a lot of people that use this version of compressor seem to recommend a CBR in compressor or a 2 pass vbr IN DVD SP.
compressor v1 seems not to have this problem however. as a matter of fact, a lot of other DVD encoder, software or hardware dont seem to have this problem.
if you do a search for 2 pass vbr in the compressor forums, you will see all the quality problems associated with compressor 2.

  • Difference Between Aggregates and Compression

    Hi,
    Can you tell me what is the difference between Aggregates and Compression?
    I know ,once compressed data is not available for deletion in request wise
    and it moves from  F table to E table .
    Aggregates means ,data will move from cube to aggreagates(Baby cubes).
    But my query is ,As both of them aggregates the data.which of them should be used. at what situation?
    I hope you understood my Query.
    Regards.
    Naresh.

    Hi,
    An aggregate is a materialized, aggregated view of the data in an InfoCube. In an aggregate, the dataset of an InfoCube is saved redundantly and persistently in a consolidated form into the database.
    Aggregates make it possible to access InfoCube data quickly in Reporting. Aggregates serve, in a similar way to database indexes, to improve performance.
    especially in the following cases we create aggregates:
    The execution and navigation of query data leads to delays with a group of queries.
    You want to speed up the execution and navigation of a specific query.
    You often use attributes in queries.
    You want to speed up reporting with characteristic hierarchies by aggregating specific hierarchy levels.
    For more info on aggregates go though the link below
    https://help.sap.com/saphelp_sem320bw/helpdata/en/c5/40813b680c250fe10000000a114084/frameset.htm
    Compression creates a new cube that has consolidated and summed duplicate information.
    2. When you compress, BW does a group by on dimensions and a sum on measures... this eliminates redundent
    information.
    3. Compressed infocubes require less storage space and are faster for retrieval of information.
    4. Once a cube is compressed, you cannot alter the information in it. This can be a big problem if there
    is an error in some of the data that has been compressed.

  • Difference between collect and move stmts

    hi
    anyone plz explain...
    1. Difference between collect and move stmts
    2. Badi and user exit.
    gowri

    Hi,
    1.COLLECT:COLLECT is used to create unique or compressed datsets. The key fields are the default key fields of the internal table itab .
    If you use only COLLECT to fill an internal table, COLLECT makes sure that the internal table does not contain two entries with the same default key fields.
    If, besides its default key fields, the internal table contains number fields,the contents of these number fields are added together if the internal table already contains an entry with the same key fields.
    If the default key of an internal table processed with COLLECT is blank, all the values are added up in the first table line.
    If you specify wa INTO , the entry to be processed is taken from the explicitly specified work area wa . If not, it comes from the header line of the internal table itab .
    After COLLECT , the system field SY-TABIX contains the index of the - existing or new - table entry with default key fields which match those of the entry to be processed.
    COLLECT can create unique or compressed datasets and should be used precisely for this purpose. If uniqueness or compression are unimportant, or two values with identical default key field values could not possibly occur in your particular task, you should use APPEND instead. However, for a unique or compressed dataset which is also efficient, COLLECT is the statement to use.
    If you process a table with COLLECT , you should also use COLLECT to fill it. Only by doing this can you guarantee that the internal table will actually be unique or compressed, as described above and COLLECT will run very efficiently.
    If you use COLLECT with an explicitly specified work area, it must be compatible with the line type of the internal table.
    In 'move' the actually data copies into another data field
    2.
    Difference between BADI and USER-EXIT.
    i) BADI's can be used any number of times, where as USER-EXITS can be used only one time.
    Ex:- if your assigning a USER-EXIT to a project in (CMOD), then you can not assign the same to other project.
    ii) BADI's are oops based.
    A. BAdI Definition
    1. SE18
    2. Enter the name for the BAdI to be created in customer namespace and press "Create".
    3. Enter a definition for your BAdI and on the interface tab enter a name for the BAdI interface. SAP proposes a name and it is pretty good. Meanwhile a BAdI class is also created which is not in our concern.
    e.g for "ZTEST", SAP proposes "ZIF_EX_TEST" for the interface and "ZCL_EX_TEST" for the class.
    4. Save your BAdI.
    5. Double-click on the interface name. It will pass to a Class Builder session to make you implement your interface. If you are not familiar to the Class Builder; it's a bit like Function Builder and it will be easy to discover its procedure.
    6. Save and activate your interface.
    B. Calling your BAdI from an application program
    1. Declare a reference variable with reference to the Business Add-In interface.
    e.g. DATA exit_ref TYPE REF TO zif_ex_test.
    2. Call the static method GET_INSTANCE of the service class CL_EXITHANDLER. This returns an instance of the required object.
    e.g.
    CALL METHOD CL_EXITHANDLER=>GET_INSTANCE
    CHANGING instance = exit_ref .
    3. After those two steps, you can now call all of the methods of the BAdI where it is required in your program. Make sure you specify the method interfaces correctly.
    C. BAdI Implementations
    1. SE19
    2. Enter the name for the BAdI implementation to be created in customer namespace and press "Create".
    3. It will request the BAdI definition name to which this implementation will be tied.
    4. Enter a definition for your implementation and on the interface tab enter a name for the implementing class. Again SAP proposes a name and it is pretty good.
    e.g for "ZIMPTEST", SAP proposes "ZCL_IM_IMPTEST".
    5. Save your implementation.
    6. To implement a method, just double-click on the method name and you will be taken to the Class Builder to write the code for it. Here you redefine the BAdI interface methods.
    7. You must activate your implementation to make it executable. You can only activate or deactivate an implementation in its original system without modification. The activation or deactivation must be transported into subsequent systems

    Difference Between HashMap and HashTable
    Please explain with an example

    I have a situation in Java Collection and i am not

    I have 5 List objects with thousands and thousands of
    records in it. The List is populated by a database
    query using jdbcTemplate which return like 200,000
    records
    Each record is identified by POLICY_ID. They may be
    List with multiple records for a POLICY_ID
    I want to extract each POLICY_ID from all the 5 List
    and make a single List object for each POLICY_ID and
    for each List and pass it to a print job which will
    print the data for a POLICY_ID
    Example
    Let say we have POLICY_ID = 15432
    List1 has one record for 15432
    List2 has one record for 15432
    List3 has one record for 15432

  • ABST2 - Differences between Assets and G/L accts

    Hi Experts
    We are working on ECC 6.0 and INR is our local currency.
    At the end of FY 2007 by mistake direct postings were made to Dep Fund Account which is a Recon a/c and FY 2007 was closed
    And because of which FI-GL and FI-AA doesnt match by INR 37353.71 (amt posted in above doc) as shown in ABST2
    I've referred SAP notes 104567 & 69225 and found the note 69225 relevant to follow as the difference has not resulted in the current or open years.
    So we have passed direct entry which is exactly the reversal of entry posted above using ABF1 (INR -37353.71)
    After posting the 2nd document, in ABST2 another line has appeared of INR -37353.71. Although the sum for my recon GL is now zero.
    The output of ABST2 is as below now -
    Sc  Acct no.   BusA  Year  SG  1st local difference  LCurr  Doc.no.    Period
    AS  31100                2009               37,353.71-        INR     W004
    AS  31100                2009               37,353.71         INR     W004       999
    When I come out of ABST2 , addition to 1st, error no 2 is also coming which I thought would disappear.
    1.Differences between assets and G/L accts in the balance carried forward
         Message no. MQ555
    2.Differences between assets and G/L accounts at the key date
         Message no. MQ557
    Is still something else needs to be done?
    Or can I move ahead as the summation of the difference is now zero?
    Please suggest.
    Kapil

    We referred to SAP and they suggeted that the tagging of W004 in both the lines means that now there is no error even system prompts it as error.
    So we continued with the transactions and after closing the FY 2009, today when we run ABST2, we dont get any error messages as there is no difference left between Assets & GL.

  • Difference between DOWNLOAD and GUI_DOWNLOAD

    hi
    let me know the difference between DOWNLOAD and GUI_DOWNLOAD  and    giv me clear  idea  of wat  and wat not should be done with respect to  conversion  from download to gui_Download??????
    give me clear process of  putting my download  data  into my  own defined file name ..  during   manual   and    backgrnd job. process..
    thanks inadvance

    Hi Shaik,
    DOWNLOAD function module is obsolete now and DOWNLOAD as well as WS_DOWNLOAD should be replaced by GUI_DOWNLOAD function module.
    The only matter you need to be careful off is mapping the parameters correctly.
    Also, you have asked "during manual and backgrnd job. process.. " , well GUI_DOWNLOAD or any download module for downloading to Presentation server CANNOT be used in the background.
    Because background work processes are run on application server level and do not have access to the desktop of any PS.
    For downloading to the presentation server essentially, pass the contents of internal table to DATA_TAB tables parameter and pass the presentation server file name to FILENAME importing parameter.
    Cheers,
    Aditya

  • What's the difference between "PreparedStatement" and "Statement"?

    What's the difference between "PreparedStatement" and "Statement"?
    Which is better??????

    Read the docs for the two classes. The differences are apparent there.
    Which one is better depends on your needs. I think that constructing and executing a PreparedStatement can be a bit less performant than just a Statement, if you're only executing the query one time. But I don't think that difference will normally be noticable in the context of a given application.
    Additionally, if you have to pass any dates or strings to the query, you'll want PreparedStatement's parameters, rather than trying to format and escape things in the query string.

  • Difference between idoc and rfc

    what is the difference between idoc and rfc? when and where it is used? when there is idoc, why rfc vice versa?

    IDoc (for intermediate document) is a standard data structure for electronic data interchange (EDI) between application programs written for the popular SAP business system or between an SAP application and an external program. IDocs serve as the vehicle for data transfer in SAP's Application Link Enabling (ALE) system. 
    IDocs are used for asynchronous transactions:  Each IDoc generated exists as a self-contained text file that can then be transmitted to the requesting workstation without connecting to the central database. 
    Another SAP mechanism, the Business Application Programming Interface (BAPI) is used for synchronous transactions. 
    A large enterprise's networked computing environment is likely to connect many geographically distributed computers to the main database. These computers are likely to use different hardware and/or operating system platforms. An IDoc encapsulates data so that it can be exchanged between different systems without conversion from one format to another. 
    IDoc types define different categories of data, such as purchase orders or invoices, which may then be broken down into more specific categories called message types. Greater specificity means that an IDoc type is capable of storing only the data required for a particular transaction, which increases efficiency and decreases resource demands. 
    An IDoc can be generated at any point in a transaction process. For example, during a shipping transaction process, an IDoc may be generated that includes the data fields required to print a shipping manifest. After a user performs an SAP transaction, one or more IDocs are generated in the sending database and passed to the ALE communication layer. The communication
    layer performs a Remote Function Call (RFC), using the port definition and RFC destination specified by the customer model. 
    The IDoc is transmitted to the receiver, which may be an R/3, R/2, or some external system
    RFC
    Remote Function Calls (RFC) and data exchange through IDoc message documents. RFC makes direct and synchronous calls of a program in the remote system. If the caller is an external program it will call an RFC-enabled function in R/3 and if the calling program is the R/3 system it will call an RFC-function in another R/3-system or it will call a non-R/3 program through a gateway-proxy (usually rfcexec.exe). BAPIs are a subset of the RFC-enabled function modules, especially designed as Application Programming Interface (API) to the SAP business object, or in other words: are function modules officially released by SAP to be called from external programs.

  • DIFFERENCE BETWEEN BAPI AND ALE

    HI

    DIFFERENCE BETWEEN BAPI AND ALE

    Hi Kalyan
    ALE is a SAP specific method how to distribute data from and to SAP. It uses the asynchronous calls based on IDOC structures.
    However in the distribution modell of ALE can also be used BAPIs. They will then automatically converted into IDOC structures. After creating the IDOCs they will be passed over to the receiver using the tRFC protocol.
    Wheras the BAPIs are using the sRFC protocol.

  • Differences between LSMW and BDC

    Hi All
    Please can you give me the few points about the differences between LSMW and BDC?
    Awaiting for your Responce
    Praveen

    Hai Check with the following document
    GOOD
    THERE IS THREE TYPE OF METHOD IN BDC
    BDC SESSION
    CALL TRANSACTION
    CALL DIALOG
    What is BDC or batch input
    The Batch Input is a SAP technic that allows automating the input in transactions. It lies on a BDC (Batch Data Commands) scenario.
    BDC functions:
    · BDC_OPEN_GROUP : Opens a session group
    · BDC_CLOSE_GROUP : Closes a session
    · BDC_INSERT : Insert a BDC scenario in the session
    · The ABAP statement "CALL TRANSACTION" is also called to run directly a transaction from its BDC table.
    It runs the program RSBDCSUB in order to launch automatically the session. The session management is done through the transaction code SM35.
    The object itself is maintanable through the transaction SE24.
    BDC methods:
    Method
    Description
    Parameters
    OPEN_SESSION
    Opens a session
    SUBRC (Return Code – 0 OK)
    SESSIONNAME (Session to be created)
    CLOSE_SESSION
    Closes a session
    None
    RESET_BDCDATA
    Resets the BDC Internal Table...
    None. Normally, for internal purpose…
    BDC_DYNPRO
    Handles a new screen
    PROGNAME (Name of the program)
    DYNPRONR (Screen Number)
    BDC_FIELD
    Puts a value on the screen
    FIELDNAME (Name of the field)
    FIELDVALUE (Value to be passed)
    CONSTRUCTOR
    Constructor - Initializes NO_DATA
    NODATA (No data character). The constructor is called automatically when the object is created.
    RUN_SESSION
    Launches a session with RSBDCBTC
    None
    CALL_TRANSACTION
    Calls a transaction with the current BDC Data
    MODE (Display Mode)
    UPDATE (Update Mode)
    TCODE (Transaction to be called)
    BDC_INSERT
    Inserts the BDC scenario in the session
    TCODE (Transaction to be called)
    BDC techniques used in programs:
    1) Building a BDC table and calling a transaction,
    2) Building a session and a set of BDC scenarios and keeping the session available in SM35,
    3) Building a session and lauching the transaction right after closing the session.
    BDC using Call Transaction
    BDC using Call transaction involves calling an SAP transaction in back ground from within the ABAP
    program. The process involves building an Internal BDC table containing the screen information needed to
    execute the required transaction and then passing this to the Call transaction command (See code example).
    The full procedure for creating a BDC program is as follows:
    What is the difference between batch input and call transaction in BDC?
    Session method.
    1) synchronous processing.
    2) can tranfer large amount of data.
    3) processing is slower.
    4) error log is created
    5) data is not updated until session is processed.
    Call transaction.
    1) asynchronous processing
    2) can transfer small amount of data
    3) processing is faster.
    4) errors need to be handled explicitly
    5) data is updated automatically
    BATINPUT/DIRECT INPUT
    A: Batch-inputs can not be used to fill the "delivery due list" screen because it is not a dynpro. This is a standard SAP report. A SAP report (check with "System -> Status") may be called using SUBMIT sentence with the appropriate options . It is preferred to call a report than create a Batch-input program.

    The LSM Workbench helps you to organize your data migration project and guides you through the process by using a clear sequence of steps.
    The most common conversion rules are predefined. Reusable conversion rules assure consistent data conversion for different data objects.
    LSMW vs DX Workbench
    The LSM Workbench covers the following steps:
    Read the legacy data from one or several files (e.g. spreadsheet tables, sequential files).
    Convert the data from source format to target format.
    Import the data using standard interfaces (Batch Input, Direct Input, BAPI, IDoc).
    Experiences made in successful implementation projects have shown that using the LSM Workbench significantly contributes to accelerating data migration.
    SAP provides this tool along with documentation to customers and partners free of charge.
    Users of the LSM Workbench receive the usual support via SAP Net - R/3 Frontend (component BC-SRV-DX-LSM).
    Releases:

  • Difference between poh and pov in module pool programming

    hi all,
                       pls tell me difference between poh and pov and how i check validation in screen

    Hi,
    POV gives you F4 help.
    like:
    You can call dialog modules in the POV event using the event keyword PROCESS ON VALUE-REQUEST.
    PROCESS ON VALUE-REQUEST.
      FIELD f MODULE mod.
    After the PROCESS ON VALUE-REQUEST statement, you can only use the MODULE statement together with the FIELD statement. When the user chooses F4 for a field f, the system calls the module mod belonging to the FIELD statement. If there is more than one FIELD statement for the same field f, only the first is executed. The module mod is defined in the ABAP program like a normal PAI module. However, the contents of the screen field f are not available, since it is not transported by the FIELD statement during the PROCESS ON HELP-REQUEST event. You can now program your own value lists in the module. However, this procedure is only recommended if it really is not possible to use a search help. Defining search helps is much easier than PROCESS ON VALUE-REQUEST, since the system takes over some of the standard operations, such as getting field contents from the screen. It also ensures that the F4 help has a uniform look and feel throughout the system. Furthermore, it means that you do not have to reassign input help to fields on each screen.
    Despite the introduction of search helps (and search help exits), there are still cases in which you need to use parts of the standard F4 functions directly. In this case, there are some standard function modules that you can use in the POV event. They support search helps, as well as all other kinds of input help, and are responsible for data transport between the screen and the input help. These alll  have the prefix F4IF_. The most important are:
    ·        F4IF_FIELD_VALUE_REQUEST
    Calls the input help of the ABAP Dictionary dynamically. You can pass the component names of a structure or database table of the ABAP Dictionary to the function module in the import parameters TABNAME and FIELDNAME. The function module starts the ABAP Dictionary input help for this component. All of the relevant screen fields are read. If you specify the import parameters DYNPPROG, DYNPNR, and DYNPROFIELD, the user’s selection is returned to the corresponding field on the screen. If you specify the table parameter RETURN_TAB, the selection is returned into the table instead.
    ·        F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST
    This function module displays a value list that you created in an ABAP program. The self-programmed value list is passed to the function module as the table parameter VALUE_TAB. If you specify the import parameters DYNPPROG, DYNPNR, and DYNPROFIELD, the user’s selection is returned to the corresponding field on the screen. If you specify the table parameter RETURN_TAB, the selection is returned into the table instead.
    There are also two function modules - DYNP_VALUES_READ and DYNP_VALUES_UPDATE - that can read the values of screen fields and return values to them during the POV event. For further information, refer to the relevant function module documentation.

    *POH gives you F1 documentation:*
    like:
    If data element supplement documentation is insufficient for your requirements, or you want to display help for program fields that you have not copied from the ABAP Dictionary, you can call dialog modules in the POH event:
    PROCESS ON HELP-REQUEST.
      FIELD  is defined in the ABAP program like a normal PAI module. The processing logic of the module must ensure that adequate help is displayed for the field in question. Instead of calling an extra screen with text fields, you should use one of the following function modules to display a suitable SAPscript document:
    HELP_OBJECT_SHOW_FOR_FIELD
    This function module displays the data element documentation for components of any structure or database table from the ABAP Dictionary. You pass the name of the component and structure or table to the import parameters FIELD and TABLE.
    HELP_OBJECT_SHOW
    Use this function module to display any SAPscript document. You must pass the document class (for example, TX for general texts, DE for data element documentation) and the name of the document to the import parameters DOKCLASS and DOKNAME. For technical reasons, you must also pass an empty internal table with the line type TLINE to the tables parameter of the function module.
    For further information about how to create SAPscript documents, refer to the  Documentation of System Objects documentation.

  • Difference between open_form and start_form

    difference between open_form and start_form?

    hi,
    Any driver program must contain Open_Form, Close_Form and Write_Form. Other function modules are optional.
    OPEN_FORM: This function module opens layout set printing. One must call this function module before he uses any of other layout set function modules like Write_Form, Start_Form, Control_Form etc., You need specify a layout set name in the export parameters of this function module. If nothing is passed to Open_Form then one should use Start_Form function module to open layout set before starting the output. The layout set opened by Open_Form should be closed by Close_Form function module, other wise output doesn’t appear. We can use any number of Open_Form, Close_Form functions in one single program. But Close_Form must be there for every Open_Form in the program.
    Some of the important export parameters we have to pass to Open_Form function module.
    Form: Enter the Layout set name here, which then controls the output formatting. If nothing is specified then we must use Start_Form for opening layout set.
    Language: Layout sets are Language dependent. Enter the desired language here. If the entered layout set is not in that language, then the function tries to open the Form entered in its original language. The default value is SY-LANGU.
    Device: SAP Script can format a text on different device types. The device can be ‘PRINTER’ or ‘TELEX’, ‘TELEFAX’, ’ABAP’ and ‘SCREEN’.
    Dialog: Use parameter DIALOG to determine whether to display a dialog box before printing, in which the user can set several spool parameters for print formatting. Possible values: SPACE displays no print parameter screen. 'X' display print parameter screen. Default value: 'X'
    Options: Use parameter OPTIONS to set several options for print formatting. The parameter has the structure ITCPO. The user can change some of the defined settings on the print control screen. The default value for Options is ‘ ‘. We will discuss about ITCPO structure in detail later.
    Other Export, Import and Exceptions are self-explanatory.
    Start_Form: In-between the function modules OPEN_FORM and CLOSE_FORM, we can use different layout sets. This allows us to combine several different layout sets into one print output. However, we can combine only those layout sets that have the same page format. To switch layout sets, use the function module START_FORM. If another layout set is still open, we must close it first using END_FORM. If we specify no layout set name when calling START_FORM, the system restarts the last open layout set. If after OPEN_FORM no layout set was activated yet, the system leaves the function module with the exception UNUSED. Some of the important export parameters for this function module are
    Form: The parameter contains the name of the layout set you want to use for printing. If you specify no layout set here, the system restarts the last active layout set.
    Language: Layout sets are language-dependent. Enter the desired language here. If the layout set does not exist in this language, the system tries to call the layout set in its original language. If the parameter LANGUAGE is empty, the system uses the language of the last active layout set.
    Startpage: Usually, SAP script starts with the page specified as start page in the layout set definition. If we want to start output with another layout set page, enter the name of the desired layout set page here. If the desired page is not defined, the system uses the start page defined in the layout set.
    Program: To replace program symbols, SAP script must know which active program contains the work areas for the values to be passed. If we omit the parameter, the system searches for the field values in the program that was specified in the parameter OPTIONS (field TDPROGRAM) of OPEN_FORM. If we enter a program name, the system replaces the program symbols with the values from this program up to the next END_FORM.
    Exceptions and other Export, Import parameters are self-explanatory.
    Regards
    Kiran Sure

  • Differences between APO and R3 sysytem.

    Hi everybody,
                        Can anyone list out the differences between the APO system and the R3 system.A detailed explanation will be helpful.

    Hi,
    APO
    APO is the supply chain tool from SAP.
    BW is the data layer for APO.
    SAP APO is for Demand Planning and is a component of mySAP SCM. It enables dynamic supply chain management and which in turn includes applications for detailed planning, optimization and scheduling, allowing the supply chain to be accurately and globally monitored even beyond enterprise boundaries.
    SAP BI is a reporting tool in SAP. It provides a complete view of the company. The solution is part of SAP NetWeaver and provides the tools needed to make the right decisions, optimize processes, and measure strategic success: data from all enterprise sources are merged effectively and can be comprehensively analyzed, business-critical factors can be monitored using external and internal benchmarks, the most important KPIs can be passed on to all the relevant forces in a company in real time, strategies can be rapidly adapted to changed market conditions, and the results of analyses can be graphically represented in a wide variety of formats, such as grids, graphs, and maps
    Check this:
    What is APO and how it is related to BW
    SAP Advanced Planner and Optimizer is a component of the mySAP Supply Chain Management solution that you use for planning and optimizing supply chain processes at a strategic, tactical, and operational planning level.
    With APO - Simultaneous Material & Capacity Planning is possible, as against R/3 PP
    APO Planning is capable of taking all the constraints into consideration with Planning for Capacities/Scheduling
    APO Resource (workcenter in R/3) does a Capacity availability check before scheduling an activity, if capacity is not available, it finds the immediate next available slot & schedules the activity there. This is not possible with R/3

  • Minimum difference between average and peak bitrage in mpeg2?

    is there a technical reason why compressor insists on certain minimum differences between average and peak bitrate when compressing to mpeg2?
    when analyzing other footage, i regularly see material where the difference is much smaller than what compressor will allow me to do.
    for instance; i'm seeing material that is compressed at 4.7 average with a peak at 5.2. compressor insists on setting the peak at 5.5 when the average is 4.7 ...

    Well, compression theory says that, ideally, the max bit rate would be double the average bit rate. But since since life often gets in the way of theoretical perfection, Compressor 2 imposes a minimum 1 Mbps difference. This is partially touched upon in the DVDSP 4 manual. From page 64:
    Since the VBR methods are most effective when the maximum bit rate is about double the basic bit rate, or at least 1 to 3 Mbps higher than the basic bit rate, the Max Bit Rate setting is forced to be higher than the Bit Rate setting.
    Now, while Compressor 2 is coded for a 1 Mbps difference, it doesn't always follow that, in my experience. There are instances when, footage permitting, Compressor uses average bit rates lower than specified as well as never hitting the max bit rate that you've set (but it really does depend on the footage).
