1-Pas
s
In 1-Pass mode the encoder will output a
working DivX video stream as it receives the
source video.
This is both the easiest and fastest method of encoding
DivX video while targeting an average bitrate, and is
particularly suited to video capture applications where it
is impossible to recreate the source video identically
more than once. However, 1-Pass mode is the least
consistent of all available modes in terms of video
quality.
After running 1-Pass encoding your DivX file can be
viewed immediately.
During 1-Pass encoding it is
possible to modify the bitrate
in real-time by selecting the
bitrate
option from the bottom panel of the
encoder feedback window.
This feature is likely to be of
particular interest when capturing
from a live source. For example, if
capturing from television you might
want to reduce the bitrate during
advertisements.

1-Pass
When you set the bitrate mode to 1-Pass you will not be able to use the
Bitrate modulation control or the EKG application.
