im converting @ 30fps. where did 23.98 come from? anyway, I'm not really talking about getting *better* video quality to run. I think the way i did it looks fine, and should be good enough for most people. the whole concept of *needing* super-hq video on a nit sort of perplexes me. I was merely sharing a decent / easy / customizable way to convert videos, because I had a moderately difficult time finding a good, free program. Maybe my post should be in a different video conversion thread, but I figured this one was more active, so it would be seen.
