set the details as desired. Individual items can be
selected under [New Profile].
The following items can be set.

Mode

Mode can be selected from constant bitrate (CBR), variable bitrate (CVBR), and constant quality (CQ). The features of each mode are explained in the [Glossary] on page 21. Items that can be set in [Rate settings] differ depending on the mode selected here.

Bitrate

The larger the set value, the clearer the image will be. However, the size of the recorded file also increases. The possible setting range is 192~8000 (kbps).

If [Variable Bitrate] is selected in adjustment mode, recording is performed within the range of bitrates set for maximum bitrate and minimum bitrate. Set this value so that it falls between the [Maximum Bitrate] and [Minimum Bitrate] which will be set below.

Maximum Bitrate

This setting is the maximum bitrate used when recording. This can only be set when [Variable Bitrate] is selected in adjustment mode. It is possible to set a value in the range of the [Bitrate] value in the item above ~8000 (kbps).

Minimum Bitrate

This setting is the minimum bitrate used when recording. This can only be set when [Variable bitrate] is selected in adjustment mode. It is possible to set a value in the range of the [Bitrate] value in the item above ~192 (kbps).

DeInterlacing

Note You can specify the save destination and name of the file after conversion by clicking [Output file]-[Browse]. By default, the converted file is added and saved

to the same location as the conversion source file, and [MPEG2 (PC-P1LAN)]_000 is added to the end of the file name (the 000 number counts up when the same name file is converted a number of times).

Using LinkTheater Detailed Configuration

“Bob” interlacing produces the sharpest image but may leave noise artifacts. “Median” interlacing reduces noise but may remove image detail.

CPU processing speed

Image quality improves with a larger value, but the

strain placed on the CPU (computer) also increases. Note Use higher numbers if you have a fast computer.

Normally, a value in the range of 0~2 is used.

Audio bitrate

To stop the conversion process, click [Stop]. Click [Start] to restart a stopped

file.

Appendix

A high bitrate provides higher sound quality, but it also increases the size of the file.
