Sorry about not responding to this sooner, Vbrilon. This thread kind of got away from me.

Regarding filing a bug on Bugzilla, I would be happy to do so, but I'm a bit hesitant for a couple of reasons:

1. Not having seen a lot of discussion about the output quality of the Internet Tablet Video Converter I'm not sure if what I'm seeing is common performance or if I'm actually witnessing a bug. Basically, about once every second, the image has a subtle blur as if the file is going out of focus for a moment. It's pretty subtle and not noticeable in fast cut scenes or in things in motion, but when there is a static image or long shot, you can see it.

At first I thought it was an effect caused by dropping frames, so I bumped the quality up to Best to keep it at 30 fps. It seems to help, but I can still see the "blips."

I'm sure most people wouldn't have an issue with it, but I'm pretty sensitive to light and that pulsating, regular glitch is really bothersome.

2. My ISP doesn't give me much online space to post a sample movie. I'll try to get some screen grabs to illustrate the problem and report back.

Is this glitching I'm seeing common? For what it's worth, I only see it with files I convert using the Internet Tablet Video Converter. The steady glitching is visible on my computer using Quicktime and on the Nokia n800 using the Media Player. I've tried several "sources" of files, including DVDs I've ripped using the settings I posted earlier in this thread and files I've downloaded from the internet.
