VC-1 Video Specifications

summarizes the recommended encoding parameters for creating
VC-1 video that is compatible with the Binloop HD:
Setting Values

Level 3
Max Bitrate* 8Mbps (8000kbps)

* Both Constant (CBR) and Variable (VBR) bitrate are supported,
so long as the bitrate does not exceed the maximum.
** Although the Binloop HD supports playback of 1080p24,
1080p25 and 1080p30 files, it does not support playback of
1080p60 files.
*** The Binloop HD will perform framerate conversions based on
the Video Output format for which it has been configured.
However, in some cases this conversion is very difficult and may
result in unsatisfactory playback. For example, playing a 24fps
file on a 29.97fps output will work nicely. However, playing a
25fps (PAL) video on a 29.97fps(NTSC) output usually produces
undesirable results. Keep this in mind when configuring the
Binloop HD’s video output and encoding content.
